The driving main riff is pure classic heavy metal, and is up there with the band's best. The album opens right up with what may be the band's heaviest song, "See You in Black", which almost reminds me of something that could be on a Metal Church album. Of course there are quite a few stale moments that just sound uninspired, but there is thankfully an equal amount of fresh, catchy, and just plain enjoyable songs. However, it presents itself as a surprisingly varied album. One album from a classic 70's rock band that was forgotten, but I find to be a surprisingly great album, is Blue Öyster Cult's 1998 studio album.īeing the band's thirteenth studio album and (at the time) their first in a decade, it would be expected that Heaven Forbid would just be another bland album that tries to recapture past glories. Most of these albums are forgotten, and often for good reason. I mean, not many people are talking about albums like Heart's Desire Walks On or Van Halen's Balance these days. Albums from these bands weren't very well-received, therefore they usually fade into obscurity. The last decade of the twentieth century weren't exactly the kindest years to classic rock acts of the 70's.
