So this song is inspired by Peter Steele's favorite cat dying. It's a HEAVY metaphor!

This song hits super close to home for me. Having to say goodbye and put down my little buddy a few years back was honestly one of the hardest things I've ever had to deal with. Leave it to Peter to pay homage to his childhood cat. 💚. As others have said, the lyrics are mostly vague metaphors throughout the song and don't directly mention his kitty.

Went thorugh the same in 2018 buddy. I had a vet come home to my house so she would not have to travel and fall ssleep in an unfamiliar place. It was five years ago this past thursday, May 25th. It took me a couple of years until I could talk about her without getting emotional. The only thing that will be worse than that day is when my old parents have to check in.

He said in an interview that he thought that no one would care about a grown man in his 30s crying about the death of his favorite cat, so he wrote this song and made it very implicit instead xD

"No one wants to hear a guy who's six-foot-eight with long black hair and fangs crying about his fuckin' cat, so I had to make it extremely metaphorical," the singer-bassist said of the song. "I have a huge problem with abandonment and loss, so I took it very seriously. I love animals. She used to sit on my chest while I was doing bench presses." I can't remember what the cat died of, but her name was Venus

Thanks to Pete Steele, whose sound i took like 6 long years (until "October Rust") to fall in love with, i was fortunate to happen upon "Lycia" the most enthralling & intoxicating (or to use his spot on words: "devastatingly beautiful") Band i had ever laid ears on - still holding my very soul hostage, twenty some years later. Peter Steele: (1995) "You should be familiar with Lycia. It’s dark, ambient Goth music. The last album is called A Day in the Stark Corner. I would like our next album to sound something like this. It is the most depressing thing I’ve ever heard in my life. If I put it on in the morning when I get up… I’m useless for the rest of the day. It makes me feel like killing myself. It’s like, why even bother getting dressed when I can just slit my wrists. Such simple hypnotic beats. Everything is drowned in reverb, yet the emotion comes through so loud and clear. It’s just devastatingly beautiful, as beautiful as it is devastating. That’s how I want to come through."

Peter was SO excited about making a new Type O Negative album just before his death. I would have LOVED to have heard it if they had worked on it. If Peter was still alive today I have no doubt they’d still be going.

#1 Type O song! My late cat (2018 cancer) is hopefully purring in Pete´s lap with Nixon. Lauren´s cat obviosly felt the vibe to pay Peter´s grief for his cat. (I went through that from 2018 and two years to come)

Ville Vallo is definitely a big Type O/Peter Steele fan. He did a live version of Black No. 1, iirc, for the Road Runner United (25th Anniversary of the record company) project. Not his best live performance, since he was seemingly pretty drunk. Can be found on YT, I reckon... Oh, and if you want more of the "I want to kill you and I'm going to celebrate..."-Peter Steele: there's no way around the 'Slow, Deep & Hard' album anymore! C'mon :)

Maybe Mocha can feel the love and grief. Peter wrote this about the death of his cat, a very beloved pet to him. He worked hard to keep that a bit ambivalent - it works on a lot of levels. I love this song... I also have to say that I think this song's music has one of the best examples of guitar and keyboards meshing into cohesion that anyone has ever done. Type O were always great with that, but this song is exquisite in that area and takes it to a whole other level. Happy Halloween!

Very appropriate for the channel, a song about the loss of a cat and a grandmother. This song is about how Peter Steele felt about the death of his beloved grandmother and her cat Weena, who he had since she died and he was a teenager, I think it's a tribute to both his grandmother and his cat. He had four cats after the death of both ladies, probably as a mechanism to accept the loss. * (Type O Negative is an obvious influence on the band HIM, Ville Valo has said it many times, and the band AFI).

Listening to this reminds me of how a couple of my exes tried to take their own life as they were going through a rough time (they’re both still alive and one of them is the mother of my daughter) and both times I did what I could to make sure that they didn’t die. My daughter’s mother and I coparent and our daughter is amazing. Also, my last ex and I still talk and see how each other are.
