The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The hard-working population of 411 million Peter Steeleans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often. Everything dies.The Nomadic Peoples of Peter Steele is a huge, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning Wolf population. Those moments when that song comes on.Īnd it hurts all over again. Those moments where you walk past a special place. Those moments when you reach for the phone. But there are some moments and people that can never be replaced. I know I have many people that I love and love me in return. Although there are many Type O songs I love, every April 14th - and occasionally, when I know I've been holding back tears and grief for too long trying to be strong or just get through - I go to my special playlist marked "do not playlist" and I hit play on "Everyone I Love Is Dead" and I allow myself to feel. A mish mash of everything good that was our own little secret for a while. A little gothy, a little tough, very Brooklyn. Video of Type O Negative - Everyone I Love Is Dead The joke is not lost on me that he handled cleaning up the garbage at my favorite place on earth. He'd turn me on to new music of all sorts and give me tips on playing as well as the more than occasional pep talk to get through whatever life garbage I was going through. Maybe something he saw in himself, a kindred spirit who needed some sanctuary and protection and from that point on he became like a big brother/uncle/counselor figure. The Carnivore story involves sneaking into L'Amours while being really underage, so we'll save that for another day … and yes people from Brooklyn always add the s at the end of the club's name. I had but I could never remember Type O Negative correctly and often referred to them by a completely different blood type. "Not bad kid" he smirked at me and asked me if I had heard of Carnivore or his band Type O Negative. King Diamond, the Cro-Mags, Depeche Mode, Sisters of Mercy, Yuppicide, Killing Time, PJ Harvey and Metallica were all on regular rotation then. I pulled out some cassettes from my vintage army backpack. Buddhist studies would help save me a little later but not too far off from where this story begins. My two saving graces in life were music and my beautiful hometown of Brooklyn, New York. Some comes by nature and the blood running through my veins and some by nurture as someone who grew up pounding the pavement in NYC. Luckily, I was taught at an early age that there is beauty in that sadness, that darkness, that bit of anger and feistiness in me. No matter how many "friends" I may have had around me, there was always an inherent disconnect and sadness that colored my experience of life. I have always felt like a bit of a loner. Peter Steele and Type O Negative's music have left such a mark on mine. Times and dates may be inaccurate, and names and events may blur but there are some things, some moments and some people that leave indelible marks on your life. Revolver has teamed with Type O Negative for limited-edition colored vinyl pressings of the band's classic albums plus a new Type O collector's issue and exclusive official band merch. ![]()
