Listening to this for the first time, it's my first type-o-negative album. this is really good so far, even though i felt a tiny bit uncomfortable with the moans at the start.
I'm okay with the oldschool synths, but the lyricism could have been alot better.
I still like this so far
>Loving you was like loving the dead
Yes, the lyrics could have been alot better

Peter Steele definitely wasn't known for his lyricism. Or intelligence. Or ability to make good decisions. Seriously, the dude posed for Playgirl and then started complaining when he found out that Playgirl is read by mostly dudes.
But he did have a great voice, and Type O Negative's sound aesthetic as a whole was godly.

I do enjoy the album overall, its pretty good.
i just criticized the lyrics, but admittedly the lyrics are not very important to this album so it's okay
>that ambiance at 3.0.I.F
wow
I rate this album 7.5/10 ~ 8/10, based on first listen.
The last track in this album is actually amazing btw

It's funny, what's wrong with that?
I always thought they were a curious band.
Like kinda gothy in theme but they sounded like Ozzy's 80s power ballads with doomier vocals
Listening to this now for the first time in a long fucking time. Really liking it for some reason. It sounds like music for cheesy big 80s horror movies.

It's... kind of great. It's own thing, too, which is weird because you'd think this idea would have been explored more.

still hilarious
the vocals sound like they were heavily influenced by older gothic rock bands.

Yeah what's interesting about them is that the vocals and atmosphere and theme are gothic, but it's not based in post-punk and dark synthpop like other goth music, but in this slow, Ozzy-ish, power-ballad-from-an-80s-horror-movie-ending-credits aesthetic that is also totally relevant and makes sense to the gothic idea but didn't get explored much given the different genre origins (although gothy industrial metal did catch on)
nice blog retard

Hey buddy, wanna see a faggot? Try lookin in the mirror.

put your trip back on
Carnivore is the superior incarnation of this band. Type O Negative's whole discography was shit compared to Carnivore's meager two albums of material.

Digipak re-release > Original release
One of the few times were removing songs makes an album better. Not to mention the track that got added is one of the best they did.
