Type O fans are really grateful that you made this video reaction of one of the best and unique bands every in the goth/doom metal genre. He especially inspired many bass singers like me to use our deep voices as an advantage for this spooky genre. Rest in Peace Peter Steele, we will all miss you and will remember forever.

This is masterpiece, period.

Type O Negative were a special band. So much humor and intelligence. Almost every album had a cover where they made the song totally their own. 'Cinnamon Girl' was the cover on this one. This album initially took some time to grow on me with doom taking more of a backseat rather than being the driving force like in the albums before this one. I wasn't ready for something more mature but the album grew on me.

I bought this in 96 having never heard the band. Because in an interview at the time Peter Steele said he was into Cocteau Twins and Dead Can Dance and described the album as "lush." Needless to say I was pleasantly surprised. Total masterpiece of an album.

This album is a staple every autumn season.

October Rust is in my top 3 albums of all time.It's absolutely gorgeous and mesmerising from beginning to end.

A lot of that distorted heavy sound is Peter Steele, the vocalist, also the bassist. He distorted and used Chorus on his bass, tuned to B, and basically played the rhythm guitar on it. Incredible stuff.

I've always considered Type O to be The Beatles of goth rock, and there's a reason why they had the nickname of "the drab four". My favorite band of all time, no other has consistently moved me so much as them. Peters vocals are incredible, there is a lot of personal pain he expresses in so many of his songs like Red Water which is about so many deaths in his family and how Christmas is painful for him because of the losses he's experienced (the band never played that song after it was recorded because it brought up too many painful memories for Pete). Good goth I could go on for days about this band I love them so much, and this album in particular has so many memories for my own life when I was dealing with surviving cancer (20 years ago on the 10th of this October!) and the winter during my months of recovery afterward. I was 19 and this album carried me through so much, hard to put into words everything which was going on at the time but the music fully represents it all for me. Thanks for covering it, I really enjoyed your perspective of each track✌️

Octobers Rust to me is the greatest album ever written by my personal all time favorite band.

Just gave this classic a spin while raking leaves in my front yard and saw your video pop up. Glad you enjoyed the journey. What a vibe this masterpiece creates.

Thank you for actually reviewing music and not copy/pasting what everyone else is doing. Great channel and I hope you continue to grow!

I love Type O, certainly in concept, by far and away their best record is Bloody Kisses. It's just 70 odd minutes of perfection, gorgeous hooks, chunky killer riffs, I'd say the gothy elements are better integrated as a part of the song. The first album is also great, more of a continuation of his previous hard-core project. But yeah, please please give Bloody Kisses a listen. Never been outright surpassed. Lots of sex noises in the transition tracks though, don't know if they're on the streaming platforms but probably just something to bear in mind.

My time has come, long live October Rust I was one of the many who recommended this🙏 thanks for the reaction I'm looking forward to this!

Masterpiece ! It's crazy how often and randomly "Love You To Death", "Everything Dies", and "Life is Killing Me" just pop up in my mind. Type O were really something else. Really important for pre-teen me, and still

"The Table's been set for but Seven, Just last year I dined with Eleven" Pete wrote Red Water (Xmas Mourning) about how one year he had a lot of family die between Xmas's and how it depressed him. He was a great Lyricist. I never met him before his death sadly but he was always appreciative of his fans. I can say I miss him and Type O more and more each year. One thing you'll notice as you delve deeper into Type O is a lot of their songs have abrupt end's. I think they did it just to mess with people haha. They had a great sense of dark humour.

Man. I've been listening to this album for 20 years. You pretty much nailed all the main points for each song. I like your format. You have a new subscriber. Good job!

Life is Killing Me and Dead Again are 2 of my favorite albums. Theyre masterpieces

Glad you got to discover the greatest band who put out the greatest album, October Rust. I love finding new discoverers of Type O and sending them to the drummer Johnny just to let him know that Peter is still loved and Appreciated even after his passing in 2010

I snuck backstage on the World Coming Down tour and got to meet Pete, shake his HUGE hand, and sit down with Kenny and Johnny for a bit. It was SURREAL. I was so gobsmacked I barely said anything the whole time. I still have those three's signatures on my cd liner (Josh Silver had retired for the evening). One of the highlights of my life. Rest in Peace Greenman!

Peter Steele,one of one,hearing this album takes me back ,was 16 when this came out, and man o man there aren't hardly words to describe how albums like this and the other artists from this era make you feel,very deep and rich,warm and comfortable,all of it.

This album is the heavy version of The Cure’s Disintegration. It is a masterpiece. I got to see them live many times and meet them all. They were amazing.

Omg I wish I could hear this album again for the first time. I used to see ToN in magazines like Metal Edge and whatnot, and they looked like just a cool metal band with Peter Steele and his chain strap for his bass. I bought October Rust first and it was so not what I was expecting but I fell in love with it.

I've loved this album since it came out, and you've pointed out some things I hadn't noticed or thought about. You are highly observant, and analytical. Thank you for doing this. You're the best🖤💚🖤💚

Fun fact, Peter Steele is also known as "The Barry White" of metal, cuz he was very tall and very muscular with a very deep voice & wrote songs all designed to make the girls swoon.

Masterpiece. Possibly my favourite album ever.

Yes! Been a huge TON fan since the mid 90s. Thanks for checking them out!

Excellent review, as always! One of my favorite albums and perfect time of year to do the review. Your reviews are always spot on!

This album has been on rotation HEAVY for me the last few days. The leaves have changed color and are starting to fall, and it's been quite rainy where I live, which makes the perfect vibe for listening to this record. Great video! 🤘

This was wonderful! I have to go give this a full listen for sure. Tis the season 🎃

Amazing reaction, instant sub👌🏻 you described some of the characteristics and quirks of the sound so well. I love this album to death 🖤

Saw them in Vegas during a family trip when I was 16 or 17. I was a gothy metalhead. The thing that got me was how funny Pete (lead singer/bass) was on stage. He dealt with depression but would turn it into a joke for the crowd.

You couldn't have picked a better album from these guys to start off with. It was also the first album I listened to by them back in 1996. It is probably their most accessible. Their follow up 'World Coming Down' is probably the most depressing heavy rock album I've ever listened to. I see you've got Sanderson on your book shelf there, you tried reading his Skyward series?

October rust is a brilliant album, it's a tradition for me to listen to it in october. Bloody kisses is my favourite Type O album but they are all great. Unique band!

Not many bands similar to Type O. The vocal mix of Pete and Kenny is great, plus the trill Pete has is awesome. The deep vocals grab your attention at first. But similar to Dillinger, the more you listen, the more layers you find.

1:42 That "guitar" is Peter Steele's bass. He used a ton of distortion and chorus that really pronounced the top end. Makes is tone super crunchy, but it kinda sounds like TV static whenever he's playing chords (which he does a lot; and particularly so on Love You To Death). Under any other circumstances I'd probably hate it, but he just makes it work so well, I love it

So many years... will never forget this concert MASTERPIECE!

Love this band, can't wait to see you dive into them more. Great band to listen to any season, but Fall most of all lol. Bloody Kisses is probably THE album for me personally but it's hard to go wrong with Type O. Great video as always 🤘

YES!!! THANKS FOR THIS ONE MOLLY!!! 💚

This was such a different take from bloody kisses 💋 and marked a time in their period of being in their time. Such a great album and that bad ground was the start of the intro in joke like "skip it" was on the next album (the darkest "world coming down" and "machine screw" was on bloody kisses. Really enjoy your take on this masterpiece of an album and mind of Peter Steele. A HUGE Beatles fan he was.

This is the album I put on when the leaves start to change and a cool breeze is in the air. It is perfect for driving on windy overcast cloudy autumn days.

I love your descriptions of your feelings. You know your words.

Every type o album has a diferent feel and tone to it. This was their goth love and tragedy album basically. My favorite album is world coming down and is their most dark, depressing and self destructive in my opinion. They did not make an objectively "bad" album.

One of my favorite metal albums. RIP Peter

Wow, what a pleasant surprise to see Type O appear. But, I’m also not surprised we’d get to this point. A little insight on this band for your journey, is that they’re are very tongue and cheek. Peter Steele (lead vocals and bass) had a great sense of humor and you’ll see that sprinkled throughout the rest of their discography. The next album you should check out is their second album “Bloody Kisses.” R.I.P. The Green Man.

I love this album so much, its easily in my top 5 of all time and maybe even top 3. It can put a smile on my face while bringing tears to my eyes at times, often in the same song. It's just the nostalgia and melancholy of the music combined with some bittersweet memories of my youth and even in more recent years it got me through a really tough time. This album really added that 80s kinda Depeche Mode vibe to great effect, it wouldn't have been the same without that influence on them. That old English flair you mentioned comes from one of their major influences, the Beatles. I'm sure others have pointed out that they consider their sound the Beatles meets Black Sabbath. They do some great Beatles and Sabbath covers too.

These guys are the Tool of goth metal. Like Tool they take you on a symphonic journey with every album. You're in for treat with this band.

One of my favourite albums. Thank you!

This is their best album, even though fans will choose any other albums as well. This album is their most cohesive and melodic it's almost like a concept album. A really dark, gothic, and romantic album, also very accessible. Such a masterpiece. Imagine they didn't have a drummer, all you hear are programmed drums. Also Pete Steele's bass did most of the distortion in this album, he made you believe there were layers of guitars but no. All his bass. Great bass player as well. It's Christmas *mourning*. I also fell for that pun, lol. Oh, what about the "I hate the morning" vocal delivery in Haunted? Phenomenal I'd love to have that deeeeeeep voice Pete had. P. S. Yeah, the comparison with my bloody valentine is valid, this album really crosses shoegaze territory.

Saw them on this album's tour. An amazing show. I literally swayed the whole time on the floor standing. Back when general admission 'seats' meant mosh pit.

OMG YOU ARE DOING MY SUGGESTION!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!

Awesome band, incredible record. At the beginning, you commented on the haunting, reverberated guitar sound. That's largely thanks to Pete Steele's bass playing. He uses plenty of distortion and actually strums chords quite often, as well as individual notes. He basically plays it like rhythm guitar, a bit like Lemmy used to. Also, they tune the guitar and bass down to B.

You definitely put me on game to this album. It's so unique & really doesn't sound like anything I've ever heard. The melodic & atmospheric nature of these songs, really drive it home for me.

I found Type O Negative when I was about 13 years old / 1997 and they became one of my favorites - amazing band

One of my favorite bands, they were my first concert at the age of 11 when they opened for Ozzy along with Sepultura in April 1996 when I was in 5th grade

Very cool reaction and nice to see you mentioned the Shoegaze element. Pete was a big fan of My Bloody Valentine, The Cure etc

Yes! Welcome! Rest easy Peter Steele 🍁🍂🍃

I only got into TON a few years ago, but they quickly became one of my favorite bands of all time. This album is probably my favorite one too, but they’re really all so consistently excellent. Seeing someone with such a good taste in music really appreciate/make such good observations on this album was so refreshing! You should consider reviewing Life Is Killing Me or Bloody Kisses by TON too, they’re also 10/10s imo. Thanks for this one Molly!

This album sounds like October/Autumn.

Pete!!!! miss going to see Type O--- so many fans still wear their rock shirts

😂 I knew you’d love this one. I’d probably go with Bloody Kisses next, if I were you. I was actually lucky enough to see them before Peter died. It was a great, intimate little show in Pittsburgh. While we were waiting for the doors to open, Peter popped out of one of the doors, in his underwear and a tshirt, and yelled, “Get your money back!”, to the applause of the crowd. That was a great show.

“Underworld of Sound”. Perfect description.

Yes! My favorite album of any band of all time!

Nice to see you react to TON they're a great band. Great vid 😁

Love all their albums about equally. A few took some time to grow on me but have become favorites all the same. I recommend listening to them every fall.

I love hearing your analysis of these albums I grew up with. I'd really love to hear you take on Circa Survive's album Blue Sky Noise at some point. Thanks for all you do.

Type O Negative!!! I recently started going through their whole discography after having only heard Bloody Kisses when I was a teenager years ago. Still probably my favorite record from them, but I could see October Rust jumping it with some more time

Greatest album ever made. Change my mind.

Peter Steele really loved nature & the outdoors, especially the fall.

1.) Very simple: Molly, you are the best! You analyze razor-sharp, recognize every detail and present it so enchantingly! In fact you are a music expert! Thank you, you adorable mythical creature :-) :-) 2.) Type o Negative is so good; not from this world. Unbelievable. If I were a woman, I would love Peter. Well... I love him like that, too, hhhahahaha.

Rest well Pete 💚🖤💚

Peter Steel...RIP...thanks for your thoughts, definitely expanded mine!

One of the greats. I'm in.

It's such a good album. Maybe their best.

'Breathy' and atmospheric is how I'd describe this album (at least in a sort of haunted fall-time northeast US way). It's a bit like the distortion is being used like synth pads, and you get that wash in the transitions. Also on warmth - I think the low/muddy guitar has a lot of warmth to it, so much of this makes me feel like I'm sitting outside next to the fire when it's 50 F with a mug of chowder.

Wolf moon is one of my favorite songs of all time

I saw this band when I was 13 I think before bloody kisses even came out and unfortunately I was not prepared. I grew to love this band and never got a chance to see them again. Rip Peter

Nice how you describe that beauty...witchi , haunted , vibe to this album. kiss

IMO ONE OF THE MOST HIGHLY UNDERRATED BANDS!!! I am by far from being into goth, death, metal. The only 2 bands that were like that, I actually listen to is Lacuna Coil and these guys (the drab 4). Origin and Slow, deep, and hard...if you are a true fan, you will give them a listen, but their 5 studio albums are just great!!! October Rust gets a lot of hype because it is their magnum opus and it's rare an album gets that much hype and I am all in. Do listen to bloody kisses next!!! I think, think, world coming down is my next fav but life is killing me comes in pretty close as well. First song I ever heard from these guys was blood and fire remix from the mortal kombat soundtrack. Was not until the I know what you did last summer soundtrack had summer breeze from them, and from there it was just Pete's vocals that I was like ok, I need more of this. Sad thing is it's a cover of seals and croft and was not actually Type o's song that really got my attention. The day when Pete died was such a sad day to me. This band is really something and stands out because they shown, you can infuse classic, pop, and doom and make it work in such a haunting and uneasy way like how NIN's did it back in the day and from time to time now. Love that you are getting a little dark with it, keep it coming!!!

Chef's kiss 😩

Bloody Kisses is mandatory at this point. Excellent analysis, as usual.

One of those records that was the sound track to my life when it came out...

thats a kinda brilliant thing about youtube videos...I just got to watch someone go from never hering something to being what i assume will be a life long fan within a few minutes ..their is a beauty in that

Hey Molly, loving the videos. Not sure how good your headphones are but was wondering if it would be worth investing in some more upmarket ones so you can get all the layers. It's one thing I slept on for years and I don't know why with how much I listen to music lol. Not sure whether you have patreon or whether that buy me a coffee is the best place to send you some coin towards some.

I love your holding a microphone. Very old school

I’ve always thought of their songs as being written like classical compositions in movements with complete changes in tone, key, tempo, etc. That’s sort of the only style I think of when I think of them as there isn’t a single genre that fits properly.

All it took was the first (technically third) song on this album to make me fall in love with Peter Steele, and begin the journey of exploring this wonderfully talented and beautiful band ✌🤍

Oh, shite, I missed this. Amazing Album.

first listened to this album in 1997. It was instant obsession. It's a classic, well written album. Peter had a major reverence for women and nature, not absent of the magical aspects of paganism. These themes are throughout their discography, but none moreso on this album. It's a very unwanted romanticism, if you will lol Fucking love Type O 🤘 even had the chance to see them live twice before Peter died

Amazing album!

Masterpiece

Would love to see you do all type o albums

World Coming Down is my favorite Type O album. Bloody Kisses is another good one.

Type O’s music is really good. I played it for my best friend and we both enjoyed it. We both enjoy listening to the same music

I would love to see what you think of bloody kisses. I feel like my favorite songs from this band are in that record.

Enjoyed your review, I would recommend that album "world coming down" And of course "origin of the feces" the fake live album which is just awesome.. #staynegative

I had the pleasure of interviewing Peter Steele in the parking lot of City Gardens in NJ for my college radio station when the had just released Slow, Deep and Hard. I'm a large guy at 6'3" but he towered over me. He was giant. He was intelligent, engaging and cool. I had been told to not ask him about Carnivore, his previous band, but I did and he was very cool about the whole thing so I don't know why people said he didn't want to talk about it. Anyway Molly, you remind of those days because you would have fit right into the college radio/Underground music scene of the late 80's and early 90's. Definitely check out Slow, Deep and Hard.

This album was my first album music that i bought as a teenager on the tape :) we hadnt hear about cds in that time in Poland or IT was to expensive for common People. So i was15 and i was tying to understand This album, and after some Times i loved IT.

I'm predicting that you won't be disappointed

wolf moon , fave song for sure

So what do you say about viewing the album revolution revolucion by ill niño?
