小简介

美国的厄运派歌特金属乐组合Type O Negative不但在音乐风格上有它独到的见解，更在其人员配备上堪称一流：善于渲染氛围的配唱Kenny Hichey，利用手中的吉它可以营造出诸如水、春天、灰色、黎明、月光等非常抽象的质感；鼓手Johnny kelly不仅能胜任那有如熔炉爆发般的飞速敲击，还可以将委婉而沉重的厄运之声表现的淋漓尽致；当在音乐中触摸到冬天、黑暗的午夜、或恐怖等这些令人不安的感觉时，你可以肯定那是Josh Silver又在试图通过键盘的威力来攻击你心灵的防线了。乐队成员中最值得一提的是主唱兼贝司手Peter Steele，高大的身材、硬朗的面部轮廓，及肩的长发和在饰演吸血鬼角色时可以完全上翻的眼球，都是Peter与众不同的地方，他甚至可以将大提琴抱起有如贝司般演奏。虽然乐队中的每一位成员都参与歌曲的创作，但从起草歌词到最终的编曲几乎都由Peter独立完成，非凡的音乐才能使得他理所当然地成为乐队的灵魂人物。

New York goth metal quartet Type O Negative is led by vocalist/bassist/songwriter Peter Steele and features guitarist Ken Hickey, keyboardist Josh Silver, and drummer Johnny Kelly. Steele formed Type O Negative in 1990 out of the remnants of thrash band Carnivore, along with his friend Sal Abruscato (drums). Type O's music slowed down the tempos of thrash metal, alternately satirizing and wallowing in a glum mixture of misanthropy, misogyny, depression, and vampiric vocals, as well as loads of cheap-sounding guitar distortion. The band's debut album, Slow, Deep and Hard, was released in 1991, featuring long, mopey dirges with titles like "Unsuccessfully Coping with the Natural Beauty of Infidelity." Not everyone appreciated Steele's dark sense of humor, though, and he was roasted by some critics who charged him with being a homicidal misogynist and Nazi sympathizer. A fake live album, The Origin of the Feces, appeared the following year, its notorious cover depicting a pair of spread buttocks (the album was eventually reissued with less graphic artwork). 1993's Bloody Kisses added surprisingly skilled Beatlesque melodies, and Steele's often ironic treatments of his depressing subject matter and the emotional and musical excesses of goth (particularly Type O Negative's brand) were deadly accurate and often very funny. Abruscato departed following its release to join Life of Agony, at which point Kelly joined the band. Bloody Kisses slowly won the band a cult following, thanks in part to the video for "Black No. 1" and the band's constant touring, and the album cracked Billboard's Top 200 well over a year after its release. The more upbeat follow-up, October Rust, appeared in 1996, building on the more pop-oriented tracks of its predecessor; in the meantime, Steele achieved notoriety by appearing as a Playgirl magazine centerfold. World Coming Down finally appeared in 1999 after a three-year hiatus, a considerably darker affair than October Rust but proof that — in spite of Steele's pronouncements to the contrary — its predecessors were no fluke. In 2000, Roadrunner compiled The Least Worst of Type O Negative, which featured European single edits and alternate mixes of the band's most popular songs, plus several unreleased tracks. Life Is Killing Me arrived in 2003 with a cover of "Angry Inch" from the film Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Four years passed before the band returned with Dead Again.
