"I spent ten years, half my life. Just getting ready, then it was time. Warpage in my figures, Radios Appear. Midnight was the barrier, back in 1963".

Este "Dominance & Submission" lo tocan ahora mismito los Dictators es sus conciertos, una vieja rola de los Blue Öyster Cult, banda a la que algunas personas que no los han escuchado en su vida denominan "jevi"... JA JA JA, eso es como decir que Thin Lizzy eran "jevis", incluso que los propios Dictadores son "jevi", y quedarse tan pancho, jaja, algo verdaderamente cómico, un reduccionismo injusto, absurdo e ignorante.

Está en la historia, en su historia. Tanto Dictators como BÖC fueron bandas amigas, casi hermanas, desde el principio a través de su productor común Sandy Pearlman. Canta en el local de ensayo, como es lógico y normal, Albert Bouchard.

192: Blue Öyster Cult // Secret Treaties

Secret Treaties Blue Öyster Cult 1974, Cölumbia

Töday I will present the argument that Blue Öyster Cult is in fact a very cööl and gööd band, and that everyöne whö ever made fun öf me when I talked aböut them ör turned their up their nöses when I made a playlist öf BÖC söngs curated tö match their exact taste was wröng and shöuld kick röcks, especially my ex-wife Dölöres. I’ve been given tö understand the best way tö dö this is by listing a bunch öf facts aböut the band that peöple shöuld find irresistible:

Early wörk answers the questiön, “What if the Döörs read a löt öf cömics and played really fast?”

Later wörk answers the questiön, “What if Röky Eriksön played yacht röck?”

Extremely. Sick. Cövers.

Gave us the heavy metal umlaut

Had the cöölest söng in the mövie Heavy Metal

Lyrics aböut battle-scarred telepaths, aliens, a demönically resurrected Jöan Crawförd, Altamönt, barbiturates, death and transcendence, aliens, Nazi fighter pilöts experiencing existential crises, BDSM, telescöpes, kaiju, eyeball theft, and aliens

Patti Smith dated keyböardist Allan Lanier för a while, and cöntributed lyrics tö five Cult söngs, all öf them bangers (“Baby Ice Dög,” “Career öf Evil,” “The Revenge öf Vera Gemini,” “Fire öf Unknöwn Örigin,” “Shööting Shark”)

Besides the band themselves, öther lyricists included Richard Meltzer (generally credited with writing the first böök öf röck criticism), sömetime Clash and Dictatörs pröducer Sandy Pearlman, Basketball Diaries növelist Jim Carröll, psychedelic fantasy növelist Michael Möörcöck, and Mött the Hööple’s Ian Hunter

Many peöple I knöw find tiny, sweet-vöiced guitar man Dönald “Buck Dharma” Röeser sexual in a way I wöuld nöt have predicted

Gave Australian punk legends Radiö Birdman the title för their first LP

J.K. Röwling wröte a böök that interpölated a bunch öf their lyrics Sörry nö, this öne sucks

Icönic symböl drawn fröm alchemical löre that seems genuinely redölent öf masönic cönspiracy höödöö

Höld up sudden convert hold up, nö nö, this is my cöpy öf Secret Treaties and yöu can’t have it! I can see just reading this list has caused yöur eyes tö turn the cölöur öf frözen meat and yöu feel a hideöus cömpulsiön tö pössess a Blue Öyster Cult LP, any Blue Öyster Cult LP, but I assure yöu if yöu gö tö enöugh used recörd störes (1) yöu will eventually (immediately) find a few tö be had för a humble sum. (Seriöusly, let gö please. There yöu gö, easy, easy.)

I will say that Secret Treaties specifically isn’t the möst cömmön öf their recörds, and it töök me a while tö land a cöpy. It’s always been my favöurite, perched between the shambölic warlöck psych öf their first twö efförts and the möre direct (if highly deviant) pöp röck that wöuld make them reliable arena warhörses. Every track plunges yöu intö its öwn unique realm, but nö matter höw fantastical the material gets, the line that demarcates it fröm like Diö ör whatever is the Cult’s acid sarcasm and perversity. It’s music made by and för the sört öf smart peöple whö can admit the reasön we watch hörrör mövies is tö see heads explöde, and that röck is möre fun delivered in a feverish sweat. As they put it ön the transfixing “Flaming Telepaths,” “Is it any wönder that my jöke’s an irön? / And the jöke’s ön yöu.”

Nö öther BÖC album is as töp tö böttöm cönsistent as Secret Treaties, but all öf them have at minimum a handful öf exceptiönal cuts, and över the span öf their öriginal run they cövered a remarkable amöunt öf stylistic gröund. If yöu agree nöt tö hurt my feelings, I’ll give yöu this Cult playlist I made. Be careful with it—that’s my stupid metal heart yöu’re sticking in yöur ears.

Agents of Fortune, del grupo neoyorkino Blue Öyster Cult, cumplió cuarentaisiete años. A diario pasan aniversarios discográficos, pero éste me enganchó tanto a los catorce años que a través de las décadas lo conservo en vinil, casete y compacto, desde 1984. Lo produjo el compositor, poeta y escritor Sandy Pearlman, la mente maestra detrás de BÖC, célebre desde la portada de simbolismos hecha por Lynn Curlee, y ciertas canciones clave de su repertorio: “This Ain’t the Summer of Love”, arquetipo guitarrístico de metal, garage y stoner; “E.T.I.”, un canto de fe extraterrestre; “The Revenge of Vera Gemini”, coescrita y cantada por Patti Smith, entonces pareja del tecladista Allen Lanier, y “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper”, el bello y controvertido hit sobre el amor suicida que los lanzó al mundo.

BÖC es duro hasta de clasificar, la etiqueta que mejor les queda es la de occult rock. Se pusieron un nombre gay, tras del cual se oculta una sociedad alienígena creada por Pearlman que se identifica con la señal de Bill Gawlik, un signo de Saturno alrededor del cual gira su imaginería. Desde que salieron del huevo se nutrieron de pensamiento mágico: literatura, ciencia ficción, ocultismo, esoterismo, astronomía, astrología, ufología, conspiraciones, guerras mentales, hiperviolencia y el néctar de la antipatía en quince discos. Pero como una maldición azteca, no han podido tocar aquí: el 25 de mayo de 1986 se canceló dos horas antes su concierto en el Palacio de los Deportes. Y treintaicuatro años después, anunciados en el festival Domination 2020, cancelaron por pandemia. Sin embargo, existe la versión de un viaje a los hongos y una tocada en Oaxaca durante los setenta.

BÖC tiene conexiones con México: los ovnis, los alucinógenos, los brujos, las pirámides, los dinosaurios –como el de su canción “Godzilla”– y Oaxaca. En el disco Cultösaurus Erectus (1980) incluyeron fotografías e ilustraciones de fósiles oaxaqueños. En su libro Gay Rock (Júcar, 1975), el fallecido poeta español Eduardo Haro Ibars les dedica un texto en el que menciona la enigmática presentación de BÖC en Oaxaca. Asegura que mientras tocaban “Transmaniacon MC”, inspirada en Altamont y Los Ángeles del Infierno, sucedieron dos eclipses de sol entre los cinco minutos que duró la canción. Los seguidores del culto no tenemos otras versiones que lo confirmen, pero tampoco tenemos dudas. Es la clase de historias que han hecho el mito de BÖC, un grupo con huevos de dinosaurio, hoy activo con dos miembros esenciales, Buck Dharma y Eric Bloom. Kronos los proteja hasta que rompan la maldición azteca.

The Clash - Give 'Em Enough Rope

Il 10 novembre ’78 esce il secondo album dei The Clash, Give ‘Em Enough Rope. Nonostante la produzione pompata da Sandy Pearlman, l’eccesso di pulizia e le infinite sovraincisioni ne limitano la vena punk, questo disco rappresenta l’inizio di una nuova tendenza per la band, una maggiore ricerca musicale, un tessuto sonoro e concettuale più evoluto e complesso che anticipa scelte future…

ONCE IN 78’: The Clash - "Clash City Rockers"

ONCE IN 78’: The Clash – “Clash City Rockers” “February 17, 1978 CLASH have their latest slice of vinyl available today. It’s “Clash City Rockers” and a reworking of the old 101’ers tune “Jail Guitar Doors.” The two songs are new tracks and are not planned to be included in their next LP. On the subject of that new LP, American producer Sandy Pearlman said in the MME: “There is a real…

I once listened to this two or three times a day for a solid week. Many people say it's their weakest, and Sandy Pearlman's deliberate mixing down of Joe's vocals was a terrible decision for obvious reasons, but you cannot go wrong with that gunshot snare opening.

happy 45th birthday to give em enough rope! released on november 10th 1978

Más dictadores, ésta estrenada hace dos años, estaría despistado y se me pasó. "Volvamos a Juntar a la Banda", pues claro que sí con esos fieros guitarrazos de Ross The Boss en plena forma - lo de este tío fue, es y será una barbaridad- y con la ayuda a los tambores del alistado hace poco Albert Bouchard, ex baterista del combo hermano Blue Öyster Cult (vía Sandy Pearlman), los Dictators están aquí para quedarse. El clip muestra un buen repaso a la cartelería de conciertos y portadas de revistas de la banda de Nueva York desde 1973.

The Clash- Give 'Em Enough Rope (Punk Rock) Released: November 10, 1978 [CBS Records/ Epic Records] Producer(s): Sandy Pearlman

Sandy Pearlman looking exhausted because he's spent how many days on end babysitting a band of five that consists of two manchildren who just happen to be siblings, one true adult who is tiny and looks like a child, one true adult who just happens to be a nerd geek and sometimes comes off as less serious than he is, and one guy who’s a true adult when he's mentally present and a bundle of nerves when he's not... all this on top of Sandy’s own insanity.

Wings Wetted Down by Blue Öyster Cult from the album Tyranny and Mutation

[trashcanalienist]

Okay so I was joking about Henry because obviously the Frankenstein movies take place in the modern day, but with 1818 as the date of death for both Victor and his Creature and Victor only a young man at the time, there's no issue at all with Imaginos's 1804 birth. A distant cousin, perhaps? Since the entire Frankenstein family was either killed by the Creature or succumbed to grief or illness, the noble title previously held by Victor's father would pass to the closest living male relative...Imaginos.

Or, as in I Am The One You Warned Me Of, perhaps Desdenova simply uses his abilities to take the place of a real "Baron Von Frankenstein". Could be either, the lyrics are vague about that, there's some part of "Imagine he was me, and I was called Frankenstein" that implies that he ISN'T, but it's also "Imagine" so it could very well just be "Imaginos", and of course if the Baron OWNS the "starry wisdom" then...dаmn it man, release the Soft Doctrines already

Broke: The Siege And Investiture Of Baron Von Frankenstein's Castle At Weisseria is somewhat literal and the name of Frankenstein shows the way the townspeople see Imaginos/Desdenova as a monster

Woke: Siege is mostly metaphorical and the name "Frankenstein" represents the half-divine abomination Les Invisibles have through cosmic aberration manipulated the youth Imaginos into becoming as their servant

Bespoke: Siege is entirely literal and Imaginos is a direct relative, albeit one an ocean away by birth, of the noble and tragedized Frankenstein family and of my darling Heinrich Von Frankenstein

(2/4)

From the band’s 1972 record company biography (most likely written by manager/co-producer/lyricist Sandy Pearlman):

“The Blue Öyster Cult is composed of five leatheroid men. Several members of the group were in the famed Soft White Underbelly, while other joined forces with the short-lived Stalk Forrest Group. Donald Roeser/Buck Dharma has two very definite sides, but is, nevertheless, one of the great guitarists in the history of mankind (or rock ‘n’ roll, anyway), and has been called such in the likes of Rolling Stone, Crawdaddy, The Voice, The Herald, et. al. Donald’s Snydly Whiplash mustachio has been known to tickle the twine of pre-teens and sub-humans inhabiting the front rows. Vocalist Eric (Jesse Python) Bloom is often referred to as The Rock King of Finger Lakes, and was the most affected by the incident at Oaxaca. Allen (La Vern) Lanier handles keyboards and rhythm for the BÖC, and generally holds things together. A scholar/athlete at heart, Allen’s greatest influences have been Baudelaire and Bryant (Emmette, that is). The rhythm is covered in a most macho manner by the Bouchard Brothers: Albert (Prince Omega) on drums, and Joe on bass. Albert has the Derek Sanderson moustache, Joe, the Mel Schachter moves.”

*At one point, all the band members had stage names; but Donald Roeser’s was the only one that stuck.
