Originally formed in Long Island as SOFT WHITE UNDERBELLY in 1967, BLUE \u00d6YSTER CULT combined adventurous lyrical themes with an aggressive instrumental sound. With passion and intelligence on display in equal measure, BLUE \u00d6YSTER CULT became the thinking fan’s rock band and a sign of life in a sea of dull, anemic soft-pop. Anthems like “Godzilla”, “Harvester Of Eyes” and “Don’t Fear The Reaper” stretched the boundaries of rock topics while lead guitarist Donald “Buck Dharma” Roeser became a hero to legions of budding axe-wielders. The band’s mystique extended to their album artwork, resulting in some of the most distinctive and iconic LP covers of the rock era. “Blue \u00d6yster Cult – The Columbia Albums Collection” gathers the essential pieces of the BLUE \u00d6YSTER CULT story into one mind-boggling totality.<\/p>\n
