Blue Oyster Cult: What Was Lost Before Tyranny and Mutation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- In this short video, Tony takes us into ANOTHER debut album, which again produced many dead end roads once the band decided to pave their own heavier highway. Tony points out that this record is much more to his liking than the rest of the catalog, because of its variety of sounds, production, and perhaps even naiveite to a small degree. Nevertheless, it all makes up for one very unique album and sound, which to our ears, has never been repeated to date.

B.O.C.🍻
I love this album. I've been a die hard BoC fan for most of my life. Secret Treaties will always be their "pinnacle" for me, but the first six or so albums are all so good.
Like and subscribed.
Beautiful album, excellent songs.
This and the next album, Tyranny And Mutation, are amongst my favourite B.Ö.C. albums.
I get what you mean in how it got louder and heavier, even on that next album.
T & M still contains some of that old fire though, especially with Mistress Of The Salmon Salt.
There was always a kind of tug-of war going on about the direction of the band. Eric Bloom wanted to go with a more upbeat pop flavor.Allen Lanier wanted to stick with the dark cryptic mythos of Sandy Pearlman"s writing. They collaborated as best as they could but their convictions were never resolved. Allen Lanier tried to bring back the mysterious story of The Blue Oyster Cult with Imaginos but the production was fraught with misunderstanding, time constraints and the continuing polarization of what Eric Bloom wanted.Thus that album never came off as what the first three albums provided.A shame, I really loved the dark mystery and imaginings that Lanier and Pearlman were trying to promote. I never liked BOC after Fire of unknown origin.
Albert Bouchard not Allen Lanier. Come on

As choptop81 so eloquently put it, this was an Albert Bouchard project, not Allen Lanier.
I started with Agents and moved backward. The first album is so different sounding and magical. The first three are all great but the first one and Secret Treaties are the best. I find Tyranny to be a tad overrated. I don't know who the fuck this guy is but he's rather tiresome.
Rambling rubbish. Great album though.
