Tyranny and Mutation (stylized on the cover as THE BLVE ÖYSTER CVLT: TYRANNY AND MVTATION) is the second studio album by American hard rock band Blue Öyster Cult, released on February 11, 1973 by Columbia Records. It was produced by Murray Krugman and Sandy Pearlman. On May 12, 1973, the album peaked at No. 122 on the Billboard 200 chart. The only single released from the album, "Hot Rails to Hell," did not chart. The album was recorded in late 1972 at Columbia Studios in New York City.

Tyranny and Mutation (stylized on the cover as THE BLVE ÖYSTER CVLT: TYRANNY AND MVTATION) is the second album of Blue Öyster Cult. Released on 11 February 1973, the album was recorded with songs that were written during the first album’s tour. It was more commercially successful than the first album, reaching No. 122 on the Billboard’s charts. This was also the first contribution of Patti Smith for Blue Öyster Cult. Tyranny and Mutation Q&A

On Tyranny and Mutation, Blue Öyster Cult achieved the seemingly impossible: they brightened their sound and deepened their mystique. The band picked up their tempos considerably on this sophomore effort, and producers Sandy Pearlman and Murray Krugman added a lightning bolt of high-end sonics to their frequency range.

Tyranny and Mutation is probably the most overlooked album in Blue Öyster Cult’s classic era. It isn’t an obscure effort by any means, and it’s adored in many circles, but there’s no real attempt to lure in casual listeners with a Don’t Fear the Reaper or Godzilla type track. That approach could be seen as detrimental but the band didn’t seem that interested in crafting hit singles; instead, Blue Öyster Cult’s second album sees them gaining momentum by upping the ante and expelling even more energy
