Long Island, New York-based hard rock band Blue Öyster Cult have signed a record deal with Frontiers Music Srl, revealing this development on July 10th, 2019.
Vovalist Eric Bloom commented: “It’s been a long time since Blue Öyster Cult’s last studio album. Our biggest question from fans is ‘when are we going to do some new music?’ So we are ready to take this journey again. Recording with Danny [Miranda], Richie [Castellano] and Jules [Radino] should be a great experience as we’ve been touring together for years and Buck [Dharma] and I are looking forward to including them in the creative and recording process.”
Lead guitarst Buck Dharma added: “The current band is great and has never been recorded other than the live concerts, so we feel now is the time for new songs to be written and recorded. About half of the songs for the new record exist and the rest will be finished during the process.”
Meanwhile, Frontiers Music President Serafino Perugino said: “We are delighted to be able to bring back the iconic Blue Öyster Cult with the release of a wealth of musical material that will certainly please all the fans. Hard rock music would not be what is now without Blue Öyster Cult and Frontiers is their natural ‘home’. We look forward to a long and fruitful cooperation!.”
The band’s 14th full-length studio album is slated for a 2020 release.
Blue Öyster Cult’s line-up is as follows:
Buck Dharma (vocals and lead guitar)
Eric Bloom (vocals and rhythm guitar)
Richie Castellano (rhythm guitar and keyboards)
Danny Miranda (bass)
Jules Radino (drums)
Blue Öyster Cult’s 13th studio record Curse Of The Hidden Mirror was released in June 2001 via Sanctuary Records.
