so there's a thread for a dead rapper, and i love type o negative, so here's a thread dedicated to the genius Peter Steele, the lead singer, bassist, and frontman for Type O Negative.

Peter Steele of Heavy Metal Band Type O Negative, Dies at 48 - Obituary (Obit) - NYTimes.com (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/20/arts/music/20steele.html)


i love type o negative.

they pretty much pioneered the whole deep voice heavy metal genre, if there even is a genre of that type. for bands like HIM and the 69 eyes and more.

and they're from brooklyn.

lol, I recall listening to some of Peter Steele's music some 15 yrs ago.
Not really my thing (never been into metal), but entertaining nonetheless.
Well, rip.

well there are a lot of artists that pass away.
the musica; preferences on this site are fairly obvious
(if not somewhat limited in scope, which is totally ok).
I wouldn't bother with posting too much things the crowd arent likely to relate.
More likely than not, few will know of Phil Spector, Lux Interior, Sparklehorse, Jay Retaerd, etc
