  1. EPISODE 1

    Öyster Böys: Blue Öyster Cult (1972)

    We're back! I'll be joined this season by my good friend Dalton to talk in-depth about the career of the utterly inimitable Blue Öyster Cult! For our premiere episode we discuss our connection to the band before diving into their origins, early history, and (eventually) their self-titled debut album. We're on the pod but we ain't no pea!  Facebook/Instagram: @satanandrainbows Email: Contact@satanandrainbows.com Financial Support: https://ko-fi.com/thenatezone Special thanks to our announcer Sasha Aleksandra!

  2. EPISODE 2

    Öyster Böys: Tyranny and Mutation (1973)

    Our series continues with an in-depth look at the Cult's sophomore release. Informed by the band's energetic live act at the time, Tyranny and Mutation certainly strengthens their credentials as early heavy metal legends, but is it as artistically successful as their debut?

  3. EPISODE 3

    Öyster Böys: Secret Treaties (1974)

    We're back to discuss BÖC's third album Secret Treaties (1974). It's a lot of things: definitely their first gold LP, probably their weirdest, and possibly their most thematically consistent. Inarguably it is a creative triumph for Eric Bloom (while ironically also serving as a creative low point for Buck Dharma). This is a big one, folks. Let's get into it!    Facebook/Instagram: @satanandrainbows Email: Contact@satanandrainbows.com Financial Support: https://ko-fi.com/thenatezone Special thanks to our announcer Sasha Aleksandra!

  4. EPISODE 4

    Öyster Böys: Agents of Fortune (1976)

    After briefly discussing the first (and somewhat premature in our opinion) live album from BÖC, we discuss their platinum breakthrough smash Agents of Fortune. Yes, it's the album with "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" on it but there's a lot more going on here. But don't worry, we're going to definitively and correctly break the whole thing down and you are going to agree with it all!

  5. EPISODE 5

    Öyster Böys: Spectres (1977)

    How do you follow up a platinum commercial breakthrough? Do you sell out and go even more commercial? Or do you double-down on the eccentricism that attracted fans in the first place? Well...yes. Join us as we break down Blue Öyster Cult's oft-overlooked fifth album Spectres!

  6. EPISODE 6

    Öyster Böys: Mirrors (1979)

    Last album of the '70s. First album with a new producer. Last chance to capitalize on the momentum from their hit single before it disappeared completely? Well, it's a little more complicated than that, but perhaps the band thought so at the time. It would certainly explain a lot about Mirrors. Also we talk about the band's second live album and their Marvel comics cameo! Join us!

  7. EPISODE 7

    Öyster Böys: Cultösaurus Erectus (1980)

    A new decade, a new producer, and a new direction (sort of). Join us as we examine the start of a very dramatic decade for the Blue Öyster Cult and their dark, hard-rocking seventh album.

    Öyster Böys: Fire of Unknown Origin (1981)

    MTV! Rejected songs from a cartoon movie for perverts! Joan Crawford! All this and even more if you can believe it. Join us as we discuss the mega-successful Fire of Unknown Origin (1981).
