The Symbol Remains is the fourteenth[note 1] studio album by American rock band Blue Öyster Cult, released on October 9, 2020.[3] The album title comes from a lyric in the song "Shadow of California" on the band's 1983 LP The Revölution by Night.[4]
This is the band's first studio release since 2001's Curse of the Hidden Mirror, making it the band's longest gap between studio albums. It also marks the recording debut by long-time members Jules Radino and Richie Castellano, as well as the first studio album since 1985's Club Ninja to not feature Allen Lanier, who died in 2013. The album entered the Billboard 200 album chart at No. 192, making it their first album to chart in the United States since Imaginos in August 1988.
