love type 0! saw them in concert in the depths of my goth phase.
trying to learn to sing this low, i actually found my voice again for the first time since my balls dropped. (had been in choir as a pre-pubescent, peter murphy followed close behing).
raised lutheran, so the teen rebellion was well satiated by the above, lol.

they were opened by a group called manhole. think i still have the tape somewhere.
looks like they changed their name.

here is an old clip. they were rap/rock b4 all that korn inspired nu-metal vomited onto the airwaves. few things better than a gorgeous lady belting into the mic while banging metal rains down.



no fire escape in hell!


and here is what she is up to more recently

I discovered Type O Negative and this particular song while in a car driven by an extremely tense & introverted co-worker who loved investigating the dark edge of metal and hardcore - I was a captive audience not always appreciating the high-decibel experience while just wanting to decompress. But I was fascinated by this from the beginning ... unusual having heard a lot of his music during quick lunchtime runs and not caring to follow up on much, but this one stuck with me immediately.

I also bought their next CD with the Cinnamon Girl re-make, but for me they were a "one hit wonder" as Bloody Kisses is the only album of theirs I really got into. Rest in peace, Peter Steele.

Manhole is a new one for me - interesting! I did not see Type O live.

I never went through a goth phase in terms of lifestyle, but have owned many albums in that genre. My introduction to Peter Murphy came when they showed this clip in the wee hours on Night Flight in the mid-80s...


And then when this hit MTV, I loved the vibe and bought the CD...


Quite a different tone between those two periods, but by Deep Peter Murphy had become heavily influenced by Sufism, eventually moving to Turkey.

Classic Rock tunes always do it for me when I'm stoned. Just a few favourites to listen to baked:

Time - Pink Floyd

Hey Joe - Jimi Hendrix

Voodoo Child - Hendrix (again)

Little Wing - SRV Cover (Yes, I'm a big Hendrix Fan)

Sultans of Swing - Dire Straights

Beggars and Hangars - Slash's Snakepit

Holy Shit! Watch this stoned or no, it is whack. I wanted to make fun of a friend of mine for posting on FB, but it is just too awesome. Unfortunately, I can see it becoming the next Gangnam.

Well, there's already a t-shirt for "What does the fox say?"! Not sure which came first, though, the shirt or the song:

Oh, yeah: music...only seen one Stevie Ray Vaughn post so far, and that was over 4 years ago!, just a couple weeks after this beautiful song was uploaded to YouTube so, here's "Lenny", named after SRV's old flame. RIP Stevie.

Hmmm. This is the one area of music (well, maybe country, too) where I must confess great ignorance. The only goth I was every exposed to was The Cure. Unless you count Garbage or A Perfect Circle. And metal? Metallica, of course. Motorhead. Some Dio. Some Cannibal Corpse. Tool. City by Strapping Young Lad. That's about it, really. Don't know why I never got into metal more. Probably because it was my brother's thing!
Anyway, I hope no one has a problem with this being a back-to-back post, because it's been a while since I last posted, and I'd like to keep to the unoffical 1-vid-per-post rule to keep page load times down, but c'mon!, how long I gotta wait until someone else posts again? :shrug:lol

My point: "Oh my fucking God" there's some great metal still out there I just need to look a little...btw Gene Hoglan is pretty badass.

@satyrday - i actually had night flight recordings for the longest time. lost it in a hardrive death. still have all of liquid television and cartoon planet.

yea, type o was def. only good for bloody kisses. that and this cover from hedwig


@Fame Is A Vapor -
yea there is a great amount of goth/industrial/metal out there (and no i don't consider garbage or apc to fit those monikers, although i do love them both ;)).

i love most of it from tangerine dream and kraftwerk to wumpscut and coil. (although my heart does live in prog rock as well.

i love that you mentioned SYL. - i hadn't paid attention to Devin in awhile and @steiner666 just posted this in the other thread


which just blew me away. i felt like someone put me and my mom (rip) together into a single track. so good. i want the $150 pack of this so bad now.

oh and i just saw testament last year w/ crowbar, st. vitus and helmet. hoglan still hammers it hard as fuck


and to keep in with the change up

a little harper with this vapor

Not sure how thoughts of being cheated on can lead to such ecstatic music...

Right? But thank God they make this music...it makes getting over it so much easier, helps to release the emotions and *cough* tears *cough* and all...

2 of my favorites, & they happen to have the same title:


Edit: "Song for the Dumped" by Ben Folds Five is pretty good, too...I guess it might take some creative license/imagination to say the songs I've listed spring specifically from thoughts of being cheated on...but the leap wouldn't be a far one.

Oh, and "Cecilia" by Simon & Garfunkel is even more upbeat, though I don't think Cecilia is his girlfriend when "someone [takes his] place" in bed with her, at most she's a GFE, but not a GF. Still, it probably classifies as "ecstatic"...(screw the 1-vid per post, eh? :disgust:)

I know I said earlier that I have a million favorite songs, but this here is one of my all-time top 10 favorite songs. Something about it is so haunting, kinda creepy, and yet so true. Kinda in the way of The Smiths "How Soon Is Now". Hard to put a finger on it. The emotion in the music, percussion, and vocals feels so raw and real. Love it. I find it just popping into my head all the time. Thank you, Oberhofer!
