ARTISTS OF THE MONTH: BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - CITIES ON FLAMES WITH ROCK AND ROLL
BÖC LogoBlue Öyster Cult , or BÖC, is one of the more unusual bands out there. I don't know too much about them, but hey, any band that has a song out that pays tribute to Godzilla ain't all that bad. Formed in the late 60's, BOC is a great band that's been pushed to the side like George Thorogood. Some may think they're some kind of satanic or occultist band because of some of their songs like (Don't Fear) The Reaper and Astronomy as well as albums with covers like those of Agents Of Fortune, Fire Of Unknown Origin and Some Enchanted Evening . Then there's their band logo. Which is total bunk. It's kind of like the people who claim AC/DC stands for Anti-Christ Devils Children. They're just a great band that plays great music. So download the song and enjoy. And be sure to listen for the hidden messages.

Cities On Flames With Rock And Roll.wma
My heart is black, and my lips are cold
Cities on flame with rock and roll
Three thousand guitars they seem to cry
My ears will melt, and then my eyes

Oh, let the girl, let that girl, rock and roll
Cities on flame now, with rock and roll

Gardens of nocturne, forbidden delights
Reins of steel, and it's alright
Cities on flame, with rock and roll
Marshal will buoy, but Fender control

Let the girl, let that girl rock and roll
Cities on flame now, with rock and roll

My heart is black, and my lips are cold
Cities on flame with rock and roll
Three thousand guitars they seem to cry
My ears will melt, and then my eyes

Let the girl, let that girl rock and roll
Cities on flame now, with rock and roll
Blue Öyster Cult
We Have Every Right To Dream Heroic Dreams.
Those Who Say That We're In A Time When There Are No Heroes, They Just Don't Know Where To Look.
