Albert sings Cities on Flame, I know that, and I think D&S.

Joe should have sung more. And al had a classic heavy metal voice. See also the chorus of Cagey Cretjns

Thanks everyone. I knew Al had a big hand in the band, but didn't realize he was the third vocalist. Weird how much he and Joe sound alike (my brother and I don't sound that much alike...).
Al's definitely not got the power or charisma of Buck or E. Bloom, but I agree Prince K, it is the most classically metal voice in the band. Hearing Cagey Cretins with the Bloom/Al B interplay is what prompted me to ask the question.

goddammit just when I thought I had bookmarked every BOC thread on here.
Give us a link to your chronological listening project?
Agree with recent revive: Secret Treaties has the best bonus tracks of the reissue campaign.

When you get to the period between Revolution by Night and Club Ninja, look up the orig Albert demo versions of Imaginos on youtube. An essential piece of the puzzle (and we can live in hope that albert has better quality tapes of them that'll come out/leak someday...)

Thanks for the tip. Recently picked up Revolution by Night which I hadn't heard for twenty years at least (though I did see them on that tour!). Very uneven, but better than I'd remembered. Fire of Unknown Origin really surprised me, too. I like it better than Agents of Fortune, Specters, or any of those late 70s records.

Fire of Unknown Origin is their best album after the first 4 IMO

can't ever decide if i like cultosaurus or fire of unknown origin better but i like them both about as much as the first three

cultosaurus is awesome too, only The Marshall Plan knocks it to the 2nd shelf
