TYPE O NEGATIVE (ex-Carnivore) - Live 1991 (Germany) - Rare footage from Neudi´s Heavy Metal Battle!

#typeonegative #petersteele Filmed for the cable-TV-show HEAVY METAL BATTLE in 1991, Dossenheim (Germany) at Out. Unfortunately the interview with Peter Steele in the backstage area of the club Out is still lost... This footage might be bootleg quality, but there´s not much stuff around from the early TYPE O NEGATIVE before they became goth-stars...

Type O Negative were an American gothic metal band formed in Brooklyn, New York City in 1989[4][5] by Peter Steele (bass, lead vocals), Kenny Hickey (guitar, co-lead vocals), Josh Silver (keyboards, backing vocals), and Sal Abruscato (drums, percussion), who was later replaced by Johnny Kelly. Their lyrical emphasis on themes of romance, depression, and death resulted in the nickname "the Drab Four"[6] (in homage to the Beatles' "Fab Four" moniker).[7] The band went platinum with 1993's Bloody Kisses, and gold with 1996's October Rust, and gained a fanbase through seven studio albums,[8] two best-of compilations, and concert DVDs.
Steele died on April 14, 2010, at the age of 48; some sources report the cause of death as heart failure[9][10] brought on by an aortic aneurysm, while others list sepsis caused by diverticulitis.[11][12][13][14][15][16] Hickey and Kelly stated in a November 2010 interview with French music magazine Rock Hard that Type O Negative had broken up following Steele's death. ype O Negative was formed after frontman Peter Steele's[18] previous band, Carnivore, broke up. Steele formed a new band with childhood friends Sal Abruscato, Josh Silver, and Kenny Hickey, which they initially named Repulsion. The band later changed their name to Sub-Zero, then changed it again one final time, settling on the name Type O Negative.[19] Steele was still tied to the multi-album contract he had made with Roadrunner Records during his time in Carnivore, despite the fact the band had broken up; after receiving a demo from Type O Negative, Roadrunner decided not to drop Steele, and the band signed to the record label in 1991. Shortly after signing, they released their debut, Slow, Deep and Hard.[20]
Slow, Deep and Hard and The Origin of the Feces (1991-1992)
Type O Negative's first album, Slow, Deep and Hard,[21] incorporated dragging Black Sabbath-esque dirge riffs, maniacal hardcore outbursts, and droning industrial and gothic atmospheres. The songs were long, multi-part theatrical epics, with lyrics loosely surrounding a story involving a man enacting revenge on a cheating girlfriend before ultimately contemplating his actions and committing suicide.
They began creating a new album, with the idea of presenting it as a live album. The subsequent 1992 album was entitled The Origin of the Feces and a warning label was put on the album cover: "Not Live at Brighton Beach".[22] The album contains faux-live recordings of songs from Slow, Deep and Hard, as well as previously unreleased songs such as "Are You Afraid" and "Hey Pete" (a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Hey Joe" with altered lyrics) and Black Sabbath's "Paranoid". Type O Negative's third album, Bloody Kisses, was released in 1993 to critical and listener acclaim, and eventually became the first record for Roadrunner to reach certified gold status in the US.[23] The newfound success brought by the album's release reportedly put a lot of pressure on the band; initially, Peter Steele expressed disinterest in touring nationally. Monte Conner, who at the time was Vice President of A&R at Roadrunner, said in a 2018 interview with Revolver Magazine, "There was a lot of pressure for him to take the band to the next level, but he didn't want to quit his job... There was a point where it looked like the band might break up."[24]

Ich habe die Band 1998 live in der Stadthalle Lichtenfels gesehen. Damals waren sie sehr erfolgreich und hatten mit dem Song "My Girlfriend's Girlfriend" einen Hit in den Single-Charts.

Ein Glück ist der Ton spitze, da stört dann das verwackelte Bild nicht so!
