Secret Treaties is the third studio album by American rock band Blue
Öyster Cult, released in 1974. It features the same band members and
production team as their previous album Tyranny & Mutation, but also
the only BÖC album that does not feature a track with lead vocals sung
by guitarist Donald “Buck Dharma” Roeser. Lyrics to the lead-off track
“Career of Evil” were written by future punk poet Patti Smith, a longtime
contributor to the band (and, at the time, girlfriend of BÖC keyboardist
and rhythm guitarist Allen Lanier).
The album spent 14 weeks in the US album charts, peaking at No. 53. It
was certified Gold by the RIAA. In 1975, a poll of readers of the British
magazine Melody Maker voted Secret Treaties the “Top Rock Album of
All Time”. In 2010, Rhapsody called it one of the all-time best “proto-
metal” albums.
Secret Treaties is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually
numbered copies on purple coloured vinyl and includes an insert. (Music On Vinyl)
This band is not your typical heavy metal group of the 1970s. They used to be called "intellectual metal" band due to highly elaborated lyrical images of horror and sci-fi, sound and production design. The third album "Secret Treaties" brought them close to the progressive rock audience, because it contains excellent songs, wonderful melodic solo parts of guitars and keyboards, confident performance and progressive arrangements. Highlights include "Dominance and Submission", "Flaming Telepaths" and "Astronomy", while semi-hit "Career of Evil" was penned by punk diva Patti Smith. Even the weakest and rather mediocre hard rocking' track "ME262" makes a meaningful break between the two sides of the album, which flows almost uninterrupted from start to finish. Then, you are prompted to start it all over again. Is there a better way to recommend this excellent work? And yes, the listeners of "progressive metal" are very much advised to listen to this album - they might be witnessing the very "proto" of their beloved genre! (Seyo/progarchives.com)
