Peter Steele is the author of some of the most romantic and sensual lyrics in rock history.

Be a fucking treat! If there was a few unreleased studio songs in a lock box still to come. Im new to this youtube shit so anyway im posting up my shitty little cover songs twanga wanka lang and im listening back to them and im like where have i heard that tone of voice before im thinking on it... it hits i sound a bit like fucken Kenny from type o negitive. I had a crack at black no 1 screwed petes parts as to be expected but yeah im definitely hereing a shitty version of your voice in mine in certain songs.

Rest in peace Peter. We only wish we could have had a few more years of the drab four. Also, their thick Brooklyn accents somehow always seem to make everything funnier.
Kenny's French accent was pure gold 😂😂😂
The Peter impressions are the best part of these!
I mean.. "Be My Druidess" is a phenomenal song.
The distortion on “hey Pete” is so wicked ⚰️
I remember discovering Type O 8 years ago and thought about how much of a disservice I did to myself for not having listened to them earlier or sooner. Amazing band, everyone must listen to their music. Listen to "Red Water" on a very dark and dreary fall day and you will know, you will know exactly what the vibe was that Pete was giving out to the world. Hope Pete is happy wherever he may be...what a loss...

Don't beat yourself up over it. I got into TON 20 years ago. But a lot of bands I was never old enough to get access to or watch live. What's great about a band like TON is their fans are fans for life. This is what makes bands GREAT.

While it sucks feeling like u discovered a band "too late", what's important is that if a band's music is truely timeless, it will have lost none of it's potency so it still resonates as if it's new music. Long Live TON \m/
A song i wished they covered is Love will tear us apart by Joy division. Imagine Peter singing that!

I saw them several times in the ‘90’s. They used to have a Halloween show in Philadelphia every year at the Trocodaro. It was amazing. Everyone dressed up in costumes. They would toilet paper the entire theater. One year they bought 100 egg rolls from the Chinese restaurant next to the Troc and threw them out into the audience. Amazing shows.

So funny. I love this band. I miss them so much.
This is so amazing. I just wish there were more interviews with Josh, but this is absolutely amazing. I'm now 34, and saw them play at blue cats in Knoxville, Tennessee October of 2008, when I was 22. I will never forget walking up, and seeing johnny sitting in the doorway, smoking a cigarette, and not wanting to be a bother, just watched him for a moment, and snapped a quick pic. I was even invited to come backstage, after the show ended, but ended up not going back, because my boyfriend at the time. I wish to god I had, but I was so nervous and shy. They'll always be in my top 5 favorite bands. I have so many pictures from that night, and will never forget it. Peter was brilliant, hilarious, and kind. Just wish I could have met him and spoke with him face to face before he passed. So again, thank you for this interview! It's amazing to hear them talk about their past records.
Is it just me that notices Johnny Kelly doing his drum parts with his fingers in the beginning of the interview?!
This interview had me smiling. Love Type o and hearing them talk about Pete and the band. Love their humour.
Best band ever, I really miss Peter and Type O Negative
I was very confused for a second. I’m just to see them together and tell stories. Miss mr Steele
They played 'light my fire' in London in 1995, was cool
6:27 I got to hear them play "Come on baby light my fire" in 1997, I thought it was great.

I was in 11th grade when October Rust hit the store shelves, still have the CD in my collection despite being able to access it any time I want on Spotify. A lot of good memories attached to that album, and hearing these funny stories about the songwriting process makes me feel better about my high school cover band struggling to get a good rendition of Black No. 1 and My Girlfriend's Girlfriend.

Black Sabbath wrote in the studio too. It's great that they gave us this look into how they made this album and the demands that the label had on them at the time. Thank you for this
I really miss Peter.
Need more interviews with them
Loving you was like loving the dead. I miss Peter. R.I.P. I did see them in concert in Worcester MA.

Honestly he's a fuckin' siren. I have guy friends who also like Type Of Neg but they kind of make fun of my extreme, magnetic attraction to his voice.

These interviews are so awesome. I bet there are so many more great stories they have to share. What an amazing band!
ok im probably the only 1 that noticed. but, johnnys tapping along to christian woman on the chair lol
NIB back in the ussr and bad moon rising were the best type o covers i saw live
I loved the layering in the music - there was beauty in that
Recognized that laugh straight from the beginning... the same one from the opening of October Rust
The impressions are just great :) I could listen talk all day
Great episode:)

ABSOLUTE LEGENDS Fell over this Vid by accident sometimes the internet delivers - GOLD THANK YOU SO MUCH SERIOUSLY MADE MY DAY I discovered Type O not too long ago and was shattered to learn Peter (Lord Petrus Steele) had passed, talk about a conflict of emotions glad I found their music devastated at a young artist leaving too soon. Smiled throughout watching this in appreciation for Kenny and Johnny sharing, talking fondly about their mate. I’ve marked this Vid for watching again (14 April) He wrote fearlessly…. (And that’s why we love him) But Peter these lyrics are retarded…. (And that’s why we love him) R.I.P Love to Kenny, Johnny & Josh 🖤❤💜
Thanks!👍😘🇸🇪
Guys this is great, thanks so much for sharing, but can you please bring the music level down? It's really hard to hear everything being said in the interview with the music as loud as it is.
Is there a downloadable audio version of the full interview? id love to listen to it again
