Blue Oyster Cult-Fire Of Unknown Origin (1981)

After releasing the mediocre album "Mirrors" the Blue Oyster Cult needed to reactivate their career, which had elevated them with superb hard rock and psychedelic rock albums from the first half of the 70s.
To do this they got more to work and decided their next jobs would call Martin Birch, who would be in charge of assuming the reins of production and pushing them to return to the level they deserved.
"Cultosaurus Erectus" published in 1980, recovers part of that essence with an impeccable sound where the instrumental developments are once again the main attraction of the band.
But it would be with the following "Fire Of Unknown Origin" when they would resurface definitively from the ashes with a masterful album, where the keyboards take the maximum role to achieve a dark but very effective atmosphere.
The fans received this album with great enthusiasm thanks to songs like the melodic "Burnin' For You", or "Joan Crawford", the rhythmic "Veteran of Psychic Wars", the frenetic "After Dark", or the hard rock "Heavy Metal: The Black and Silver".
With "Sole Survivor" the band returned to the sounds left behind in the album "Specter" and expressed their intentions on the way forward.
