Interview w/ KENNY HICKEY - (TYPE O NEGATIVE/SILVERTOMB)

[@guyinpajamapants6892]

30 years later I realized how hilarious their songs were. They were great, but the NY humor shined in those songs. Masterful!! And 2 guys asking questions is a little chaotic, no?

[@tsierfeld]

Geez i know the camera on Kenny is dark but he looks the same as he did in the 90's...🤘🍻🤘He answered the question about 90's metal and them "fitting" in perfect Type 🚫was/is a whole sound of there own.

[@punishedexistence]

Kenny doesn't age. He merely grows into his current self. 😉

[@shafiqjan1474]

Kenny love is good love. He is my favorite rocker that I have met. Got to talking and give him a hug after a LOA/ST show in Baltimore a few years back. Just glad to be a fan since SLOW, Deep and Hard

[@punishedexistence]

It's funny that when you listen to a few type o songs, you can actually hear just a hint of a Crue influence in there, probably just touring and being in the moment, and that's not a bad thing. Kenny is a bad ass mofo and always will be. Probably one of mynall time favorite musicians! ❤

[@saltpeter7429]

Of course there is. A lot of what separated Type O from the other "metal" bands of the 90's was the shameless melody. The band was damn good ear candy no matter how much they made fun of themselves with awesome self deprecating humor. Crue is a template, among others, for the heavy metal earworm, tunes that won't leave the head after a first listen. I miss Peter. I saw an interview on KZbin with him yesterday, ended up at a record store and happened upon DEAD AGAIN. Seemed like it was all meant to be, lol. I bought the album and have had a bit of a nostalgic journey playing it over and over. Those guys were real special...

[@HammeredReactions]

Omg, just one short tribute show tour with Tom from October Noir

Kenny hickey is the most underrated guitarist

Yah damn right. He’s a riff writing son of gun.

[@danielbaugher826]

His 12 string work is very impressive especially on the first Type O album , if I had to chose a favorite guitarist Kenny would be the one

[@d34dj3d1]

TON is hands down the most underrated band in the history of music

[@killionare72ify]

I pray one day Kenny Josh and Johnny will get the appreciation they deserve

[@arthurbishop3173]

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING?!?!??"----LMFAO...LOVE Kenny!!

[@sixwhip14]

I was at the Crue show in Sioux City back in 94. I wasn't into Type O, but then again they were kinda new to me. After their set I saw Peter standing at the mixer board as I was walking by. I said "Fuck, he is huge!"

[@GlennR.Townsend]

kenny is so underrated. he will forever be one of favorite guitar players and singers!

[@Dead_Again1313]

LOVE when former Type O Negative band members collaborate on new things. A Pale Horse Named Death is so badass and I really liked Seventh Void alot. I wish there had been another album or two from the latter. Silver Tomb aint bad but I like the other two better. Im extremely curiouse to see what the full EYE AM album is gonna be like. Im hoping for some sludgey doom sounds. I wish we could get a project with Kenny, Johnny, Sal and get Josh to come back for a while. Something with all 4 surviving former Type O members. Especially since we know Sal and Kenny can both sing. Maybe even throw some guest vocals and playing in the mix. Guys like Phil Anselmo or Jerry Cantrell come to mind. Its just a bummer that Josh is done with music. He was a huge part of the Type O sound. He was their producer for Gods sake and doesnt get enough credit. Too many people see him as just a keyboard player. Nonetheless, all respect to him for living life on his terms. I'd do anything to have Pete back, above all else. He will always be missed. I'm 36 with no kids yet, but im going to ensure that even my grandchildren know his music.

[@nicomor352]

Peter always in my mind

[@RedneckAdonis]

I wish he'd play more. Even do shows playing some Type O tunes. I'd love to hear the music live again. Please dont let that incredible music die. I will be a Type O Fanatic till I'm dead.

[@robertarce5377]

Kenny is one of the coolest guitar 🎸 player always down to earth he can make that guitar have a distinct sound

[@Unitedfruitco]

Looking forward to hearing more from EYE AM.

[@Really377]

We love you Kenny!

[@andrewstruzyk9954]

I did not "know" Kirk, from "COC/Down/Crowbar", is a member of Silvertomb !!! Awesome !!!

[@brendastone3610]

Jerry Springer clip on Facebook was where I discovered them! 💚💚💚

[@KyOte13]

Kenny’s new solo 6 is one of the best guitars I’ve ever laid my hands on. If your thinking about getting one, just Do It.

[@armlovesmetal1036]

I so miss Type O Negative's music. They were so innovative, down to earth and sexy. They were so underrated. My favorite album of all time is October Rust.

[@ramoncardona4651]

He got a set of pipes. Great singer

[@vintageL122y]

Kenny is an incredible guitarist, truly amazing at his craft. If I had to choose one guitarist to learn from, there’s no question about it, it would be him. He has some solid riffs that create this chemical nirvana in the brain. That’s the only way I can describe it. I always feel this incredible surge of energy every time he plays. 🖤💚🖤

[@TheBEEFBOY]

Ur the man Kenny

[@Lomedae]

So, talk about synchronicity. I just, out of the blue, listened to Silvertomb's record twice yesterday for the first time in a while, really dig those tunes sad they don't seem to get the props they deserve. And as I was sitting down today for a round of youtube recommendations the door rang and my preorders of the Dead Again and Origin of the Feces vinyls came in from Nuclear blast. Happily sitting down to unpack my eye fell on my top recommendation, this new video with Kenny Hickey. Like, wow - the Metal Gods really trying to hammer home something here :-) Anyway, watched the interview, great stuff, good questions and some fun anecdotes. Seemed like kenny was relaxed and enjoying himself as were you guys. Heavy Galaxy is really like a warm bath, can't wait for the next video! PS: Get a better camera John, please :-)

I loved Kenny Hickey Josh and Johnny and Peter. I would like a a new vocal Peter or Kenny style to be tribute band. No other band alive can measure up to TYPE O NEGATIVE EVER. I was in my 20’s raising a child but I would be at a concert now OMDB 🌙

Wonderful to see and hear from Kenny and even better that he's 3yrs sober!! I am so glad to continue my sobriety also. I'm also thrilled for a new release from Silvertomb! Fantastic to hear news and down-to-earth honest,funny chitchat from him and Johnny Kelly recently(another ch)!! #silvertomb #kennyhickey #typeonegative #rockchitchat😃

Got to meet Peter in ‘08 In Vegas and I flew from Chicago just for that show and he says “why in the hell would anyone travel that far to see such a shitty band” I replied “I’m actually here to see Hatebreed” 😂

yeah they were so unique that they could open for bands that spanned several genres

Kenny is an all time hero, and we are perhaps a bit influenced by Type O indeed

Right on!

Kenny was in rehab?
