Dunno if there are any other former or current Type O Negative-fans here but the big man has passed away at the age of 48 from a heart attack.

Fuck Sisters of Mercy, Type O Negative was always the best Goth band even if they were clearly influenced by Andrew Eldritch.

Black No. 1... Hauntingly beautifull. Get goose bumps everytime I hear it.

RIP.

Re: RIP Peter Steele

I am extremely sad.

I´ve been a huge fan of Type O Negative since when "Bloody Kisses" was released, so it´s been more than 15 years. Have every album of them, and even though my musical tastes have changed greatly since then, and I don´t listen to as much metal as before, Type O are one of the few bands I´ve remained faithful to.

For example, I still play "Red Water (Christmas Mourning)" every Xmas Day, to this day, as a sort of personal tradition. And even though their songs are quite dark (yet many times also ironically dark), they´ve helped me tremendously many times when I was younger.

And what can you say about a song like "Love You To Death".

Btw, I seem to remember thesightless was also a big fan on here.

RIP, you sucker.

Re: RIP Peter Steele

I've never been into that band... but it's sad to hear news of a great musician dead... with all those fuckers singing shit that still alive and kicking!

Re: RIP Peter Steele

Jeepers. Sad news. Been a fan of them for a long time. He had a very distinctive voice.

Re: RIP Peter Steele

that is crazy. I remember listening to Type growing up. Sad to see someone pass awya at such a young age. RIP

Re: RIP Peter Steele

truly surprised to this this thread on here. I can honestly say that 3 people had influenced me back in the late eighties to pick up playing the bass and he was one of them. From Carnivore to Type O and hanging out with him numurous times through the years, he was one of the nicest people that I had come across in the music scene.

R.I.P

Re: RIP Peter Steele

Peter was one of my absolute favorite singers. Such an amazing voice.
