Peter Steele R.I.P.

Man, this is a huge blow to the hard rock/metal world. Steele was a truly unique individual whose lyrics reminded us not to take ourselves too seriously. His pained bellows also gave confused, frustrated listeners a gloomy body of work to relate to. He was much, much more than a tall bassist with a big dick. If you don't know who I'm talking about, go listen to Type O Negative right now.

I think I'll mark my return to writing random reviews by covering a couple of TON records. Watch this space.

  2. I am behind the times, I don't recognize the name so I am off to check out O Negative, me being O Positive we should relate somehow. No? My heartfelt sympathies go out to those who know and love him.
