The Blue Oyster Cult Tyranny And Mutation 180g LP (Vinyl)

High Quality Pure Analogue 180g Virgin Vinyl LP! Audiophile Remastering!

Let's look back nostalgically to the day when influential DJs presented their precious wares on the radio, which were lapped up by listeners and music pirates alike. That progressive, perhaps psycho, rockers such as the Blue Oyster Cult led a somewhat niche existence makes one all the more eager to listen to the truly awesome discs recorded by this group in their early days. An important start was made with the re-release of BOC's "Secret Treaties", which is now followed by "Tyranny And Mutation" - another great disc. Although the band offers a mix of slightly subdued, milder pieces, the opening number "?The Red & The Black" makes it fully clear that we are in for a dizzy roller-coaster ride here. Subsequently the Black side with its straightforward guitar riffs is mixed together with a complex melody and results in an amazingly colorful sound ("O.D.'d On Life Itself"), it is refreshingly naive, full of feisty complicated rock ("Baby Ice Dog"), and soars to celestial heights in "Wings Wetted Down" with its polyphonic male voices.
