@raiiderhead I believe "I Love the Night" is about being turned into a vampire. In fact, I am pretty certain about it.

[argi1968argi]

one of the best songs of B.O.C

[TheDrunkenHer0]

FEAR OF THE DARK..! hahaha...BOC is AWESOME..

[ceocity]

@TheDrunkenHer0

I had the same feeling...i think the 2 songs are pretty similar...

[KDiamondheadMF]

Its clear that this song is about the devil, if you notice when he says "And let me loose, I fear I've finally found a way" loose I fear is a play on of words as Lucifer sounds extremely similar when you say it, none the less fucking awesome song devil makes the best music!!!

[raiiderhead]

@KDiamondheadMF I have a good point there about Looes i fear and Lucfer. What is (I LOVE THE NIGHT) about?

[KDiamondheadMF]

@raiiderhead Its more than likely talking about a supernatural being because it says"No mortal was meant to know such wonder, one look in the mirror told me so, come darkness I'll see her again" so probably satan and he just said she instead of he to make it sound like a love song or to add mystery to it but then again I could be wrong this is just what I get from the song!!

[raiiderhead]

@KDiamondheadMF Blue oyster Cult makes you think about there music. Thank you for your thoughts on this awesome song.

[dollyfarinelli]

I love that ending expecially when he says:"After dark I ooh..." and the guitar just after that and OOH! Sounds so great after such a bitchen song!

[sturgis4421]

Secret treaties , Tryanny and mutation , Onyour feet or on your knees are the albums that got me into them , They are MIT grads and are like proffesors of heavy rock beauty ! All the albims are excelent espeacialy with Al and Joe Bouchard . I can't spell but I know the best when I hear it . The guitar solo on 7- screaming diz busters is my favorite and turn it up loud ! ( on your feet album )

[FatMetalFan]

Si.

[codern]

4get about the images in their vids,4get about the BOC rep of satanic what hav u,4get even about their lyrics&what the song might b about(which i know's hard4listeners) Focus on the band, musicianship,and production.The musical genius.These guys were so ahead of the game. The bass&drum r so distinct with such amazing tone.The singer sounds youthful&mature at the same time.A smooth pleasing cool&talented voice.Their guitarist is the epitome of what a rock band should b...long love the mighty BOC!

[sturgis4421]

Jim in Denver , Fan since 1974

[Korban3]

@sturgis4421 Shayne in Orting, Wa, fan since 2002. Wish I was born a helluva lot earlier.

[MrStanlee9]

@Korban3 Maybe you were????LOL

[bradominus]

100% originality? Hmmm... That's a slight exaggeration... But still love BOC...

[beefoneeto]

BOC's throwaways would be other bands best tunes...

[TheAgProv]

Hmmm... the Great Gate of Caernarfon Castle by night, I beleive I glimpsed in there. V. creepy.

[GeminoSmothers]

Metallica has always been my favorite band, but BOC has been making me think twice about that a lot lately.... Amazing band.

[ruphia]

This song is so deliciously cheesy. One of my fave halloween songs, just because it actually has some fun with horror, especially vampires, which are so stuffy and corny when people take the idea seriously.

And the bass is killer.

[carrienurse]

@ruphia ---Very well put! I put it right up there with "Tattoo Vampire" & "Monsters".

[Bojoe777NaBl]

if my ears are not bleeding the music is not loud enuff... :D

[88BiTE]

WHAT'S METALLICA?!?!?!?!

[incubatorjesus]

TAKE ACID IT LIVES

[mrahman377]

This band is clearly under appreciated, they clearly are good and better than bands like Metallica and ACDC! They should be in the same position as Led Zeppelin or at least close to them but many don't even know! Man people were dumb to not notice them back then!

[shane4896]

Well they are a damn good band. This is a trippy album cover, especially if you know something about the occult. Its probably the trippiest band there is.

[09mex]

i completely agree this band is outstanding

[88BiTE]

WHO'S METALLICA DUDE!?!?!?

[truckergodd]

i love this lp.if any one seen the movie,(the stoned age) thay play in the movie,it a short part..

[TheISavant]

WOW! I can't believe I found this 'ol rockin' tune! Now lets go turn all of the mosh pits back into smoke pits! LOL  Hurray for hippi dayz!!!

[hobosown]

boc is actually the MOST creative band in history

100% PURE ORIGINALITY and unique fuckin sound!

they dont sound like any other band, and no other band sure as hell dont sound like them

LONG LIVE BOC!!!

[lildread1]

@hobosown

idk Tool is pretty creative, but dont get me wrong these guys know what there doing

[paperboy6996]

@hobosown your right about that

[kara1464]

@hobosown Loved BOC for yonks - but can't see them as the MOST *creative* band ... Alice Cooper, SAHB, Genesis ... BOC on a par, but not MORE creative, no.

[Deadlyrazorwings]

@kara1464 Yes : )

[kara1464]

@Deadlyrazorwings I know it's difficult, but try to be objective lol

[Deadlyrazorwings]

@kara1464 I just don't want to. lol! Forgive me : (

[kara1464]

@Deadlyrazorwings You're just too polite for me not to forgive.

[crashburnerz]

@hobosown

I still think they sound like a mix between Deep Purple, Post Ozzy Black Sabbath and Grand Funk Railroad

[phyrisl2]

who said cults are bad?

[jad10003]

lol the cult of the blue olyser is a great cult!

[1whokncallthethunder]

one of my new favorite tunes.

[BleedBlsSdmf]

Grove Pics? Kick ass man (not the grove)

[lildread1]

go go bass line

i luv playing this song on my bass =]

[atltom58]

My favorite song off this album, although ive been a fan from the first time i heard cities on flame on the radio in 72.  spooky tune to say the least. on your feet or on your knees.............

[carrienurse]

Great pix for the tune Pyneapple & Buck's searing solo doesn't hurt either. Ah 80s BOC...

[alebarbera]

When i listen to this song, the manner the singer sings make me feels that mustaine of megadeth has been inspired on it...mustaine sings this way

[fdeepf]

jajajaja Nosferatu?? jajaja nice!

[DSINKS]

Ever notice how their songs seems to pull you in and then seem to go on forever.

Long live B.O.C !

[whiteyIl]

Blue oyster cult is unknown to most people  HAIL THE GUITAR ARMY

[RIP1115]

what movie is that clip from at 2:57?

[MetalManDan7]

RIP1115 thats footage of a secret society know as bohemian grove.

[jonsilence]

There's no turning back now, my fate is traced in blood.....I've tasted true salvation, your power is my drug.

After dark I need you....

[killinghorse]

Thank you so much! I have so much trouble finding this song, it is such an underrated song dude.

[xanadu77]

Fabulous tune.......an obscure little gem from the mighty B.O.C
