Neither can I!! BOC rock! The most underrated band in music history.

[the13thmoon]

There are no bad tracks on this album-They transcend the rock genre,they are wonderfully melodic and yet rock out heavy metalically-And the lyrical themes are literate and acute...Should be much famouser plus the singer is brilliant and distinctive like all the players...Einfach Wunderbar

[Germanioism]

mitici

[peterm3964]

This shit improves every time I hear it . faaaarrrk !!!!!

[MikeCLasVegas]

@porcupineinteruptus YES ! The lyrics came on green bar paper! I remember-I saved them for years. I was fortunate to catch them at the old Acadmey of Music in NYC. They opened for SLADE. (OR) Did Slade open for them?

[hezarrc]

Very good!

[crhymethinc]

It needs more cowbell.

[tittyscott]

I am becalmed and lost to nothing,except tp the chit that youtube is screwing us with lately.Meet me anywhere corperate bungholes you surely deserve to be left to die.Just one swing is all I'll need.

[TIMOTHYSAARINEN]

So fucking sinister.

[mswaking]

I like the live version better

[CuzzinVinny100]

I still remember the ad tagline for this album when it was released; "Aggression unchallenged is aggression unleashed."

[peterm3964]

@SPAZZOBOXER It also kicks ass and rocks hard

[LiteracyLabyrinth2]

This is such a cool song

[porcupineinteruptus]

Incredible musicians,and the wildest,most bizarre,captivating lyrics of ANY rock band.I remember writing to their fan address from the Secret Treaties album and requesting all their lyrics,which came in a super-long computer generated paper! Once I had every word of their songs in my young hands,it increased my love/fascination with them. And we didnt even know what they even really LOOKED like,for years,what with no internet and all back then,all you had was the album covers.More mysterious!

[TheRottenTeethKid]

Thank you for supplying me with some memories of my early teen years that I long for always!!

When one plays a Blue Oyster Cult's track on RealPlayer , a review pops up saying the following and I'm quoting :

"Intellectual , smart-ass Metal made by critics . For proof that Blue Oyster Cult rules , listen to "Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll" . "Godzilla" , the Kronos logo , "Secret Treaties" , laser lights - what more does a wizard want from a band ?

[chrishutt66yt]

We understand..and so do I! (do you?)

[Bojoe777NaBl]

give anything to hear this on the radio just ONCE

but man... what else can/should I say

[gwxk]

If you eat a lot of sub sandwiches you become subhuman. My evil twin made me type that.

[jwmellott]

I wanted to hear this song, but couldn't remember the title. So i entered the keywords "Blue Cult Ladies Fish Gentlemen". Worked like a charm.

[WhatFuckingUsernameI]

@carrienurse: How about the end of "Unknown Tongue," where he sounds like Johnny Rotten?

[drex23100]

Boc was definitely a thinking mans metal band.Both profound and perverse.

[yourunclehank1]

So ladies,fish and gentlemen

Real music from the days when music was

made to entertain, inform and enlighten

Not just background soundtrack to your life

like so much of the un-imaginative music now

The average musician is more technically advanced

in so many ways yet lost in mediocrity now

[metalchango]

for some strange reason the opening riff reminds me of carls jr

[redfoxbennaton]

I feel like a subhuman.

[The1Black5Wolf3]

Personally, I fucking adore the Imaginos version of this (Entitled Blue Oyster Cult) to death.

[Melotiriunpompelmo]

Best hard-rock album.
