Peter Steele of Type O Negative interview with Full Metal Jackie (part 1)

Full Metal Jackie Interviews Peter Steele of Type O Negative. (Interview done January of 2007 in Anaheim California.)

[@phoenixcobain5540]

Peter was not high on anything if any of you knew him well enough you would know that Pete suffered from anxiety and stage fright. He was shy and did not do well with interviews and being put on the spot. He had to drink a few glasses of wine before getting on stage every night just so he could get through a damn show. Quit judging him. The poor guy is dead give him some peace already.

[@kaeseistcool]

aall respect expecialy he said in a interview once he was still a virgin so he "dont have a favourit condom brand" lol'ed hard

[@qwikfikz]

pete was my friend. THANK YOU, HARLEY.

[@phoenixcobain5540]

Pete was a friend of mine as well and I will NEVER sit back and allow anyone to make accusations about him that are not based in truth.

[@Dave-sb7yf]

Harley Quinn I never got to meet him or even see a concert... One of my biggest regrets. What an interesting and completely complex man. He was ahead of his time in many ways too late in others. RIP Peter.....

[@KhaleesiRoronoa]

Pete died from the same heart defect that killed his father. I know because he and his family were personal friends of mine. Pete's biggest addiction was red wine. Don't disrespect Pete especially since none of you even know him well enough to even do so. Pete was a beloved brother, uncle, son and friend

[@WhoTheHellIsHarvy]

"with faces like ours you have to learn to laugh" I swear Pete Steele could have been just as good a stand up comedian as he was a musician. Absolute legend and awesome guy. R.i.p

[@Ddhdhdjdh]

The world sucks without this man.

[@fmjmetal]

Agreed.

[@danielbaugher826]

I just think what made his music so awesome is the innocence and honesty , he never really wanted fame and didn't like playing live and etc , but that's why petes song writing was so awesome , his art was his heart

[@Achilles5Cenci]

Crazy I still become angry thinking about his death. I suppose it’s because how badly I wish he was still alive. He was a once in a lifetime being. Fortunately I watched Type O live in October 2009. Incredible to watch him perform songs from Dead Again. Peter was doing so well before he passed. I used to regularly see him walking around the community lake (a lot of times just picking up litter), but just always doing things to better himself (staying sober, going to the local Church, spraying paint around potholes in the road so the community maintenance would fill them in). My poodle ran out in the road to say hi to him one time and my mother was apologizing to him but he did not mind at all, had a smile on his face.

[@13Xibalba]

So that was in Scranton? Love the story he went to pick up litter, green man till the end..

[@Achilles5Cenci]

@@13Xibalba this was in Dingmans Ferry, PA. He was there for a couple years or so before spending his remaining time in a apartment in Scranton, PA, about 45 minutes north of Dingmans Ferry.

[@gabibeck5344]

God blessed you with seeing him

[@Vanasse1]

To me, Pete always seemed like a guy who would rather be sitting at a bar having a beer with you than being 'interviewed' by someone... he really comes off as just a regular guy who had NO IDEA what a rock God he really was.... loved him.... miss him..... RIP.

[@oliveraeternus3285]

@Captain Kirk lol he's a fukken legend and dead but he would laugh his arse off at this weakling hero worship crap

[@thegeminiclub]

He’s just so polite. I wish he was here so bad

[@heidi82]

This part and part 2 of the interviews break my heart. He had so much pain from family stuff growing up, horrible breakups, wanting to commit suicide, doing drugs which he later regretted, never finding someone who truly cared and loved him for him, and he had like zero self confidence when it came to his looks among other things, etc etc. It's hard to hear him talk about his struggles and how unhappy he was. I think he put on a good front, but inside, he was silently dying all the time. Regardless of how he felt about himself, he will always be my favorite bassist and vocalist as well as the funniest and most sexy man I've ever laid eyes on. RIP Green man💚😢

Peter Steele gave some of the best interviews ever.

Peter is funny, but I think Josh is funnier (and the funniest). Problem is, Josh likes interviews even less than Peter.

[@All4Spall]

Haha at Pete's joke around 9:00 ''Halloween has always been my favorite holiday because, you know, that's the only day that people thought that I was wearing a mask.'' :D:D

[@olgaknispel7530]

My Dad got to get his autograph in Georgia after a show in the 90's. He said Steele was great to his fans and his hand was 2 times bigger. Great band.

[@nuclear_warrior]

Ya know, as you get into bands over the years, you begin to naturally admire the artists. And you get curious to hear them in interviews. Sometimes, when you hear the artist speak, it's a bit of a let down, but you still love the music. Peter was a great gem that was always a real joy to hear speak, for his humor of course, but also the times he got serious. Always funny, always interesting, always honest.

[@MortonGoldthwait]

Bi Polack. Thats quite a diagnosis.

[@jamilaandersson7533]

Love the fact Pete had polish blood in him, shows that polish people rock . I had a feeling he had some slavic blood in his veins I have seen type o in concert back in 09 most awesome concert

His last name is Ratajczyk after all....

Lady: I'm a polack .... Peter: "Maybe you can find the recipe for ice cubes!" LMMFAO!!

[@Cthulhu_Awaken]

Has it something to do with Poles in concentration camps? I'm afraid I didn't get the joke.

[@davidbourgault1369]

It has to do with the perception that Poles aren't very bright. There are many Polish jokes out there just as there are for all the others. Proof of how humourously self-deprecating he was

[@karinaxxx2313]

Christine Baranski (an American actor) made a similar joke. She is of Polish origin as well. Unfortunately, there have been tasteless jokes about Polish people; most likely it comes from ignorance or someone really wanted to spoil reputation/ impression about Polish people. A term "Polack" is most likely offensive in the 🇺🇸 - that's what I have heard anyway. Peter was sarcastic and I can imagine his live growing up in 60s, 70s and 80s with Polish surname. He was such an intellectual, perceptive, well-spoken person. Thank you for being YOU, Peter, and I deeply regret that you had to struggle with biopolar. I hope you have found your own place in the after life.

[@bryanessing3344]

This guy was gold. I miss the great one.

[@nathanwalsh3028]

A lot's been said but no one ever seems to recognize the man was extremely intelligent. Rest in peace big fella!! Get a shot of black tooth with Dime while you're up there. Also tell Vince I said hello!!!

[@nunyabizz8859]

sad to see he's so sick in this video, at least hes now at peace he did say he wouldn't be phased by death if he made a difference, and celebrate him instead of mourning,

[@noRTH1212]

Peter lives now in heaven, and creates new fucking anesome music...GOD is a huge fan of Peter

[@KillSwitchNY]

Miss Peter very much. Out of all the musicians I have met he was the absolute most inviting and engaging. His dark and self depreciating sarcasm is second to none. As big as Type O got is as small town as they stayed.

[@slantyrock]

his sense of humour was fucking brilliant. and he didn't bullshit like a lot of rockstars or musicians, he just said it like it was, whether he was talking about himself or someone else.

[@meedily]

He was pretty sharp and charming.

[@HeartOfTheBereaved]

Hahahaha, this dude seems pretty funny. I wish I could have met Pete while he was still alive. Long live Steele.

[@embassyhotel]

Oh Lord you have no idea how cool Peter was,he had the biggest HEART Type O & Carnivore are my all time favorite band.I don't know how much you know about Type O or Carnivore?But Type O's first 2 albums,'Slow Deep & Hard' & 'Origin Of The Feces'were left over Carnivore material & their 3rd album 'Bloody Kisses' which went gold platinum was their first collaborative effort of original Type O material & Roadrunner Records first band to go gold platinum.I also have a Type O tribute site on youtube.

[@edenalexander8871]

I am soo hurt that I never got to see them. I heard that beautiful soul was released by sepsis as a result of diverticulitis.. OR aneurysm? Do you know?

[@belladonna5904]

Sepsis

[@embassyhotel]

I still can't believe Peter Ratajczyk is gone? I grew up with Type O Negative & Carnivore & Pete was the reason I picked up a bass guitar in 1991 after hearing their first album, 'Slow Deep And Hard' & that was it for me lol, it went all down hill from there. But dam I still don't think there's too many days that go by that I don't think of Peter. I feel as if Peter was a very close friend of mine or family member. R.I.P.-Peter Ratajczyk Steele.

Who Down voted this?

[@embassyhotel]

I meant to write EMT not EMIT lol. Which means that Josh is saving lives now in New York in an Ambulance,EMT stands for, 'Emergency Medical Technician'. & his hair is completely shaved off so you don't have this huge head of broccoli hair coming at you & all those tattoos lol.

[@embassyhotel]

now that's one thing that is very rare nowadays with bands Is the fact they don't react with their fans or treat them nicely like they should be. But Type O Negative band members were always,ALWAYS AWESOME to their fans!! If you didn't know keyboardist Josh Silver you could misenterprate him as being cocky maybe even rude but he's not he's just quiet & at those times,high or drunk or both lol,& now he's saving lives in New York as an EMIT LOL!!

[@JamesBStudios]

my band opened up for type o on the jager tour and peter gave us a shoutout from the stage ..fuck i ll never forget thta..rip peter

Steve is so damn honest and down to earth, great sense of humor, and i heard he was a nice guy and not the bad ass, super star personna on videos. he is sorely missed. im happy he stopped taking his medication. psychiatric rx drugs kill more people than street drugs and are internal torture.
