Among the group of friends I had at the time this band first broke, it was understood that Blue Oyster Cult did songs like this with tongue-in-cheek. Their whole persona of being a "Cult" was satire, making fun of the whole "It's the devil's music!" hysteria by doubling-down with satire like this song. I got that feeling about the song from their live album "On Your Feet or On Your Knees", that the song was not to be taken seriously at face value. Now, we certainly could be wrong...I really never dove into their personal stuff...I just loved the music. But I have listened to this song literally hundreds of times and I don't feel I'm any closer to the devil than the next guy.
I am a Christian in that I do believe the Jesus is my savoir and died for my sins. Having written that BÖC is one of my top three bands. I'm 60yo, and I've always liked music groups that challenged my intellect. BÖC does not spoon-feed ideas.
Blue Oyster Cult, "Seven Screaming Dizbusters" off of Tyranny and Mutation Album. 1973 my first Concert was headliner B.O.C. been a fan of this Band for 50 years. Try this one by them. "Dominance and Submission.
…….picture this Biz…. Blue Öyster Cult opening for Black Sabbath with Dio fronting (1980) still my favorite concert I’ve experience out of the 100’s I’ve seen ! ❤️🔥🤘🏼🎸
Great pick from their hammer-hard black & white era. Now you know why they, at that time, we're called "The American Black Sabbath". But you strike me as a more melodic soul. Try the studio version of "I Love The Night" from their Spectres release. You'll find it is as different as day & night from "7 Screaming Diz-Busters".
The dark occultic presentation was just their schtick, they didn't take it seriously. Unlike others like the Led Zeps who were into satanism. They were sophisticated Long Islanders after all and absolutely first-rate musicians, especially Buck Dharma ( I think his real name was Don Roeser) on guitar. I wore this out on vinyl back in the day
It took the longest time for me to figure out that dissonant riff that drives this song on guitar! I still haven't figured out what a "diz-buster" is, though!
The guys are in BOC are just telling sci-fi horror stories. It’s just entertainment. I promise you they are not evil or satanic it’s all just a show for entertainment purposes only. It’s like going to see a horror flick or reading a book like Dracula. Nobody accuses Bram Stroker or Stephen King as being a Satanist. Great reaction video Props for doing not only BOC but an obscure song of theirs!😊
Hey Biz, I thought I'd drop off another song by a duo that I believe you've reacted to before and seemed to like, in case you're interested. "Loggins And Messina - Your Mama Don't Dance (Live)" (by the channel: nyuv02) --This song is from the bands 1972 self-titled album called "Loggins & Messina" and reached #4 on the billboard pop charts. Hope everything is going well for you, brother. Thanks for sharing
The live version of this tune from "On Your Feet Or On Your Knees" is a must listen!
Finally someone reacting to something other than “don’t fear the reaper” and “Godzilla”. BOC has a host of under rated awesome songs.
Taking me back to my youth! Great pick, Biz! Thanks for keeping great music alive and helping it thrive! 🙏

On your Feet or on your Knees live is another 🔥version! Great reaction Biz🔥🤘😎
IN my opinion - this album is in the top 5 of rock - thanks for reviewing - btw all the songs worth a listen
You should listen to the live version from " On Your Feet or On Your Knees"
Trust me, it's worth the listen!
Love your channel!

Fun fact: D&S is based on true events. One of my favorite tunes!
Listen dear, they're playing our song...!
Great Live Band also. Check out On your feet or on your knees. F'n great

I do like the first three albums from BÖC as they are dirty and grungy.

Is, not was. On tour forever.
Early BOC is so interesting
They have lots of hidden gems like this. Their song Black Blade is a masterpiece.
I suggest Ozark Mountain Daredevils- Jackie Blue (Live).
This has some Frank Zappa vibes. The way it's structured.
What you doing bismo the Gizmo? What up!
Good one 💥
Fire!
When he talks about lucifer the light he's also saying he can't stand the light
Yeah that's some La blossom La Basa pallid interior
You can't tell me that these boys weren't doing drugs back then... Good drugs. lol

Im Burning For You is a better song by Blue Oyster Cult ❤😊
Their arms so long this time of year...
Not their best work.
I like Astronomy
I Like The Pact
I like The vigil.
A top ten song for me.
