Some bugger has shuffleplay-like stuck “Godzilla” in the middle of “Flaming Telepaths” and “Astronomy” with no respect for it’s previous suite-like tension but what the hey. This is a credible take on the original hootch. There’s no chicken and egg type deal to deal with here then. These are reconstituted highlights from a combo that steered me well. BLUE OYSTER CULT were and, on some occasions are, still it. They swing and swung some of the finest riffola ever amped beyond 11. They were punk rock in their day and the sonic quasi-metal equivalent of what would eventually come to be known as a David Lynch movie. Brothers Bloom, Dharma and co. took us to other dimensions unfettered by the dungeon and dragoned-up lame-oids that would follow.
