hahahaha true..!....wow..!......btw. I think he was actually a sweetheart ..he refused to go to hospital when got ill cause his cat was was very weak and he wanted to be there for him...../: ......so sad.....he loved cats../:
Pete was a REAL individual.....about as real as it gets....He speaks to reporters as if he is just another guy, and is able to hold back all the sadness and frustration in his voice, and respond with well thought out, articulate answers....Something that we can alll learn an example from. RIP Brother
How can you not love him? My heart was definitely breaking for him. I just wanted to reach out to him and give him a hug and someone to talk to without judging him. He, as anybody deserved happiness. I miss him and Type O so much. Every time I hear their music, it makes me cry that there will be no more music from this gentle giant of a man and to me the best band in the world. They were so innovative and special.
@Anthony Dennis yeah well when you aren't shown that you too are a human being like having to pee and the only restroom is in a hotel and they tell you we don't have public restrooms, that's when you know money is one of the few things most people in society care about anymore because people are greedy, disgusting, and crazy beyond a point.
Same here I knew of them..Missed a show in philly...Because I myself was playing down the street..Dated a true Type O fan....And fell in love w the whole thing..I just played Wolf moon,on the way home from work at 1am.
Best Peter Steele interview ever - He has always seemed very tongue in cheek in interviews and sometimes very blunt - but this interview had some great questions asked and Pete provided some very honest and insightful answers. The world was a better place when He was here - thankfully the music still lives on.
Wow. I always listened to Type O - but never actually listened to the singer talk. What a down to earth dude that lives for his fans and metal. I regret not ever seeing them live.
I saw them in 2000 and 2003. The first show was better, but they were worth seeing just for Pete's in between song banter. He was funny as shit. I rec you search YT for Peter Steele interviews (the whole band, really). They are insightful, sarcastic, and yes, funny as hell. He made his mark.
I started actually cry when Peter started to talk of losing his parents and losing "someone I love". His eyes... you can see how deeply sad, hurt and alone he felt... Makes you wish that you could have done something to ease his pain.
I know what he means because I lost someone I really really loved to and up to now I cry 😢 because of that! I can’t sleep to night and I don’t even feel hungry!! I Love You and it’s a pity that You could come back! I miss you too much!!⭐️
Wow, he was half in the bag/bottle. It hurts to see him like that. The last few years of his life were pretty brutal, whether he did it to himself or not. I'm speaking as a former addict, here, not from a place of judgment or pity. Just..... it's hard to see someone you feel like you knew (even if you didn't) fall so hard. Why was it we all felt like we knew him so well, personally? It's kinda creepy, but the dude was just so down to earth, yet had mega magnetism, and there was always something sympathetic about him..... He made people feel like he was speaking right to them.
Parasocial relationships are not all that uncommon. He was a personality, for sure. But ultimately, the music that he made spoke to you. That's why it feels like that. As far as his drug problems, unfortunately, I can now relate to that as well. I avoided them all my teenage and young adult life, even though I had plenty of opportunity. But I knew better. Now here in my late 30's... decided... sure, fuck it. One dumb decision to take part in some substances can fuck your whole life. Clearly, just like Peter Steele, there's something dysfunctional about me. I'm sorry I did not heed the warnings in some of his songs.
Why special people go away so young?? :'( He was sweet and humble...this interview is heartbreaking, you can see Pete was a very sensible soul, and intelligent...wanna hug him every second...
i really hailed Peter Steele for his compassion, humour, intelligent, and last but not lest, his music!... a great man indeed who has born in the wrong era...
+Anton C Agree. The world really isn't capable of appreciating a man with his sense of humor and intellect. His appetites did him in, but he wasn't a waste of life. He inspired many.
God he sounds like he's gonna cry, that makes me so sad to hear him just open up the inside of his brain. Such a good man. I suppose God only accepts the best and leaves the rest to suffer here. Dude, you'll always have a special place in my heart as one of the most uniue people that have ever walked this earth. You'll be missed man!

His body language alone is screaming the answers as he is blatantly disrespected by interrogation for such personal private information.

The best voice in the music industry in my opinion. Loved his passion, his tone, and through these interviews his demeanor. I'd have a beer with him in a second given the chance. "Oh god I miss you, I really miss you."
in darkness we begun, in darkness all life sprung... pete, for ur voice, and type o negative music, you are then immortal to those who enjoy that art form , deeply rooted in the lack of light, the very state of the human kind. thank you, and all of type o negative musicians , for enhancing my life for many years listening to your music.

ok but imma defend kirk, he had an excuse to cut his hair because i think his ex girlfriend cut it so he just had to chop it off but now he still got his long hair like before though 😅😅
@@dedmagnetic Clearly, he was just a helpless bystander in his own life. Saying "no" was obviously not an option. And I can only assume she did his makeup and let him borrow her piercings too? That totally explains the track pants on stage-such a bold fashion statement! 🤣🤣
Found out about Type O Negative back in 6th grade, like 4, 5 years ago because that was the year I ever saw my crush, and I had a Bloody Kisses cd but I didn't know what it was and I had found it and the image on the cd had reminded me of her, so I put it in my cd player and instantly was hooked. I listened to Type O Negative every day for a few hours cause it was the only way for me to get my mind off her because I'd get sad because I was not her friend, and I wasn't able to hang out with her. I had really bad anxiety, and so it was extremely hard for me to just go up and talk to people, and I only had 2 friends at the time. I really wish that I would have forced myself to talk to people back then and have been more social cause if I would have I would have been better off now than I am, cause I still only have a few friends and nobody talks to me or even acts like I exist. The thing is, now that I'm actually able to talk to people, I was told the unfortunate news that she had recently got a boyfriend, and it broke my heart cause this girl was the reason that I didn't kill myself back in middle school because I was in a very dark place at the time, and she also gave me hope that I'd actually get to know what it was like to be happy. When I found out she had a bf, I pulled up a pic of her and listened to Type O in the dark by myself and cried cuz it truly broke my heart, so now me and Peter have 1 extra thing in common we both lost the people we loved cuz we screwed up, although unlike Peter I might one day get a shot with her again. My one biggest regret is that I didn't attempt to talk to her back in middle school or anyone but I can't do anything to fix the past I can only attempt to do better in the future, and to add to that my aunt scratched the hell out of my Bloody Kisses cd back in 7th grade and a about a month ago I was talking about how I was gonna get it resurfaced so I could use it again but my ex friend said that they were trash and he didn't like how I always had the cd with my so he broke it, by snapping it in half knowing what the cd had meant to me, but the night before he did that I had put it in my cd player for old times sake and the last song it ever played was Blood and Fire specifically the part where Peter says " Moi cherie you remain a mystery to me. I see your face in every flame, with no answers, I have only myself to blame, of all the women that I have known, they're not you, I'd rather be alone." I built a plaque for the cd cause even though I can't use it, I can look at it and remember old memories. I bought another copy, but it's not the same because the other one has sentimental value, and it was also an original copy from 1993 which oddly enough was gifted to me when I was 4 years old and it was also the same day that we sadly lost Peter. RIP Peter Steele, and I thank you and the rest of the band for all your wonderful music.
Pete was and always will be a breath of fresh air. As I watch this now, though I've seen it before, I realize just what a gentle person he must have been. TON's music has always touched me in ways no other band has and I hope we as fans keep Pete and TON alive in our hearts forever!
Peter Steele had one of the best head of hair in the industry. Here he’s in his 40s and his hair rivals dudes in their 20s. He clearly doesn’t understand that these musicians cut their long hair off not because they wanted to, but rather they were loosing it and gradually wore shorter and shorter hairstyles to cover up the receding hair as many men do as they age.
poor peter. he was a heart breaking guy. so so sad. he was alone and lost. noone to call on his own. he was the only boy among five girls. this man went through alot of pain in his short life I can't even imagine what he has gone through but by interviews and songs he sang he really tells the world whats happeing to him but yet the world don't care enough to listen to his cries for help. so he basically gave up hopes and dreams to live anymore. its hared to live such a hard ache live like poor peter did. I think that no human being should ever live a horrible life with fame or without. live a happy life and the rest leave it to god to heal it for you, dont do it yourself alone or you will end up like peter steele dead alone thats what happened to him cause he wanted that to happen to him die alone cause he felt alone in this dark world.
Peter Steele is the reason I picked up a bass guitar. But Peter was a complete mess in this interview & I'm sorry I don't buy the Metallica cutting there hair bullshit,it's just hair. now there music they did change though.
Sudsy Sutherland But he is right in a fact that lots of people stopped listening to Metallica in Load/ Reload era...some of them "new" fans were shocked when I played them Kill em all😂
wow, again, thanks for sharing this. Peter Steele's candour and outspoken honesty if humbling to say the least. And god was he funny. Despite his obvious trials and tribulations, I think he remained a thoroughly genuine and good person. I hope he is in a good place right now. RIP Peter, you are remembered.
The true nature of being an artist is to grow and evolve as a person and an artist ... reflecting it in your music and style. The day an artist only writes and maintains its image to please its fans that will be the day that he/she is not a true artist anymore. Fans are great, if they dont follow you on your journey while you grow and change, than so be it, there will always be new fans willing take the ride from beginning to end to enjoy your art, either way. May Peter Steele rest in peace,
Man... I listened to Type O Negative since i was like 5(27 now) thanks to my mom... Crazy to think how much they, Dio, Audioslave, offspring and linkin park have helped shap my life and personality into what it is today, specially Typo O. I still listen to them every other day, every day in October... Wouldn't have become a goth or started viewing the world as i do. I feel very much like Steele here, this interview just puts a lot of perspective into my life. I love this band and i always will just as i will never stop being a goth or embracing the darker parts of life. Its also wierd to learn he died the same year less than a month from Dio who is just as important to me.
Type O Negative is my favorite Metal band. Yes, metal band. any band that plays heavy riffs with the whole " E to Bb thing"... and frequently uses fast tempos, that , to me, is metal. i am obsessed with them. collecting all the albums, obsessing over them. i love this band to death
I still miss him and type o negative to this day and I will probably say that on my death bed. I saw them twice and I missed the chance to meet them. Rest in peace Pete. Type Os music will always be one of my favorite influences ❤
Everytime i watch this I almost cry. Its so heartbreaking. Pete was such a warm hearted guy with so much love to give and he just wanted to help people where ever he could. This world just left him alone in a very very bad way and in the end he died alone. If you ask me he didn't die on a heart attack or sth. I think he died from a broken heart because he was all alone and the ones he loved either died or cheated on him and that makes me cry right now. Thanks for everything, Pete! I still miss you. Almost 6 years after...
You're right, he didn't die from a heart attack. It was an aortic aneurysm. The decade of hard-core cocaine use and him being an alcoholic until his last day didn't help.
@@@sarcasticallyrearrangedDeranged you're not only uninformed & ignorant but out of order as well. He was sober for almost 9 months when he died & he was very proud f that for himself, as he should have been! He did not die from anything related to his heart. @ Phil The Writer you also have no idea what you have written. He did die alone, that much is correct as the individual who brought on his death didn't even bother to go in the ambulance with him when they were taking him away so unfortunately one of his greatest fears of dying all by himself was realized. However, you have the rest all wrong & are merely speculating as if you're informed which you aren't
I love type o negative they will always be my favorite band I never get tired of listing to them. no band will ever come close to sounding like them no one can sing like peter no one. rest in peace peter we all miss you
Does anyone else cry & occasionally giggle when listening to Pete talk now we've lost him? 😢 because I miss him yet 😂 giggle because he was a very witty and funny man. RIP BEAUTIFUL MAN & THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC & LYRICS THAT GOT ME & MANY OTHERS THROUGH SOME OF THE WORST TIMES ❤
Piotr, Piotr ... I was blessed to grow up with your music in 90's and that I was able to addict few more. Listening you right now and you know what's cool? My 6 yo kids love you too, mean there is much more to offer in your music then simple sound and empty phrases which we got this days. See ya on the other side!
I feel lucky I at least got to see them once, even tho Pete was in rough shape and fucked up during the show, it was still amazing. There were so many ppl stuffed into the balcony I thought it was gonna collapse. The vibe was unlike anything you can replicate or come close to. It’s hard to explain. The people who have been lucky enough to see them live know what I’m talking about. Miss ya Pete, and all your corrosive Noo-YAWK humor. There’s been no one like you, before or since.
At the end of his answer to I believe it's the 2nd to last question, "....but it's bittersweet because....I fucked up." Nobody's perfect, Pete. We still love you 😭💔
I feel so crushed.....His words helped me along when I was a kid. It's just a shame that right when he was getting himself together this happened. R.I.P. Pete.
I miss him so much, Pete was so influential to me in my teenage years. I'm very thankful that I got to see ToN live in 2007, without considering I might not get another chance to do so again.
È incredibilmente triste e perturbante leggere nei bellissimi occhi tristi e un po’ spenti, dalla voce a tratti tremante e dalla sua postura, quanto questo magnifico uomo ed artista sia tramortito e desolato da una vita che, nonostante i successi, la ricchezza, la stima e l’ammirazione, non è giunta a renderlo davvero felice. Non intendo santificarlo e neanche deresponsabilizzarlo per i suoi numerosi problemi, ma mi dispiace immensamente leggere nelle sue parole risentimento, delusione, asprezza e rassegnazione. Specialmente il momento in cui parla di quanto gli manchino i suoi genitori e la sua voce poderosa si spezza e i suoi occhi si velano. Da fan lo amo moltissimo e non so cosa darei per averlo potuto conoscere e dargli un abbraccio, ma resta il mistero di Un uomo di genio e dal carisma immenso che, assurdamente, non ha amato sé stesso , è stato preda della sua fragilità e tenerezza e non ha creduto nella vita contribuendo alla sua autodistruzione. Ciononostante il mio amore per lui e la sua musica è enorme ed incorruttibile e Peter resterà sempre uno dei miei artisti preferiti ed uno dei miei sogni erotici ricorrenti.💚🤍🖤
I used to sit in my apartment in college, and listen to Type 0 Negative, thinking I was probably their only fan out of my entire social circle. Then, a few years later, after I got out of college, Peter died, the band broke up, and one of my co-workers told me about it. I had no idea he was a fan too. We ended up hanging out, talking music, and wishing we could've watched the band perform live.
man, peter was a really hurt man, i just want to hug him, peter we fucking miss you. all of your songs having to do with death hit me hard. so much emotion. peter we love you. rest in peace green man. you will never be forgotten.
This is hard to watch - This was a time when Peter was being treated for the effects of the drug induced psychosis he had found himself in. Antipsychotic meds create the dry mouth and the involuntary body movements and the transfer of thought to speech. I adore Peter - I hope there is a place for him and his parents and his cats and all he loved. Hopefuly he still loves -will that huge heart
I think his comment is so real.do you ask a mother which child you love best.a mother would say she loves her babies all the same.yes they are all different,but a mom loves all her babies the same.a real true comment.thanks
Love you petrus....god bless your soul brother.....in heaven i want to meet you, and give you a big hug for so many beautiful moments you give me with your timeless music and lirics.rest in peace green men.we love you n miss you.but....i see you in the other side, when my time's come.
@bekicide: You nailed it. Type O, like he said, is a band whose image is so crucial to their mythology. To see Peter Steele as a regular dude is refreshing on a human level but weird and kind of a letdown as a fan. I met him briefly at the VIP bar at L'Amour in Brooklyn in 1986 and he scared the shit out of me. He was totally playing up his image, even back then in the Carnivore days, kind of tongue in cheek but it worked and I've followed him ever since. But yeah, he is so wasted in this clip.
Bloody Kisses is one of my all time favorite albums. To be honest it takes me a lot to even listen to someone new, i didn't care for the follow up album, but it doesn't matter, to me Bloody Kisses from start to finish is just magical. I've never heard a band like this before or after. It was a huge influence on me. RIP brother.
Eric Albenze I probably wouldn't be Alive today if it wasn't for the sonic therapy and saving grace of the album Bloody Kisses , I agree it is something magical or whatever about it (-) GOD BLESS PETE (-) 🎸R.I.P 💚🎸
"You are what you eat." The little tongue waggle and smirk right after. Damn, even when he's at a low point he was so damn cute! I do have to disagree with the whole band image/changing things as artists should be able to do what they want with their sound and look. As long as they are being respectful to fans and others and taking care of themselves, does it matter? But in this case, I love Steele's long hair.
Perhaps Peter is being sarcastic when he talks about Metallica cutting their hair and changing their image, considering Peter changed his image from Carnivore into what became Type O, because he wanted a female fan base, it's really hypocritical of him. Peter said he grew up and evolved. I like to think Metallica also grew up and evolved, because they also required a larger fan base with their new sound.
Sure wish he was still with us. He was a no nonsense speak the truth kind of guy. I have just became a new fan and discovering how much I enjoy listening to Pete as I love what he had to say. Common sense and not trying to be politically correct. I love it. What would Pete have to say if he was alive with today's woke bulls___!! When he talked about his mistakes, parents and loved ones it was very emotional to hear him open up like that. The pure honesty of Pete is what made him special for sure. RIP Pete.
"We don't jerk around our fans, because without our fans, we are nothing." The good ones die young.
Dead on Pete!
The good only die young because the bad guys are the real good Men in this age.
But they are not looked after properly.
Probably the most genuine human being to ever record music. The only thing bigger than Peter's stature was his heart.
I just wish people like this were more looked after.
I love how he says Madonna is more Satanic than he is..He knows what's up Lmao
Yeah! I noticed that too! It's like he already knew about the illuminati and all these secret society's.
When you know, you know
hahahaha true..!....wow..!......btw. I think he was actually a sweetheart ..he refused to go to hospital when got ill cause his cat was was very weak and he wanted to be there for him...../: ......so sad.....he loved cats../:
Glad I'm not the only one who got a good laugh at that, and it makes me wonder or look at Madonna in another way now
I believe he was just hungry like a wolfie who needed his dinner.
Pete was a REAL individual.....about as real as it gets....He speaks to reporters as if he is just another guy, and is able to hold back all the sadness and frustration in his voice, and respond with well thought out, articulate answers....Something that we can alll learn an example from. RIP Brother
Genius manifests in strange ways, and the tongue in check zingers are the gravy on top
Josh Silver gave my brother and I tickets to see Type O because the show was sold out when we got there and we lucked into meeting him
Pete did the same for me in Knoxville in 97. - Well, he added my name to his "guest list" at the door. I miss him so much.
Best jew ever
How can you not love him? My heart was definitely breaking for him. I just wanted to reach out to him and give him a hug and someone to talk to without judging him. He, as anybody deserved happiness. I miss him and Type O so much. Every time I hear their music, it makes me cry that there will be no more music from this gentle giant of a man and to me the best band in the world. They were so innovative and special.
You can see the extent of his addictions. RIP he was so unique.
If people didn't equate money to be the root of all evil, maybe it would be more than one root and for all good and nothing short of that.
@Anthony Dennis yeah well when you aren't shown that you too are a human being like having to pee and the only restroom is in a hotel and they tell you we don't have public restrooms, that's when you know money is one of the few things most people in society care about anymore because people are greedy, disgusting, and crazy beyond a point.
I discovered you and Type O Negative too late :( but better late than never. Rest In Peace Pete 🖤
Same here luckily I found carnivore it just sucks because it was a year after he passed.
I only discovered them in 2017
I discovered them like months ago...i just missed out some of the best bands
Same here I knew of them..Missed a show in philly...Because I myself was playing down the street..Dated a true Type O fan....And fell in love w the whole thing..I just played Wolf moon,on the way home from work at 1am.

Honestly, while it is a good interview... You can tell he's completely shitfaced here. This was in the peak of his abuse right before he got sober...
So smart and sweet...a gentle giant for sure...what a sad, sad tragedy to lose him so young

madonna is more satanic then i am xD
The truth right there. Drugs, prison, whatever, at least Type O didnt sell their souls with the music.
Truth bomb . obvious tho .
tk3141 Pete was satanic there wasn’t really a choice for the rest of them since he is the voice and main character of type of negative.
yes, check out her concerts.
"more beautiful" lmao not these days.. looking scary
This mad world in 2022 needs more Pete steeles .. miss him so much
God he sounds like he's gonna cry, that makes me so sad to hear him just open up the inside of his brain. Such a good man. I suppose God only accepts the best and leaves the rest to suffer here. Dude, you'll always have a special place in my heart as one of the most uniue people that have ever walked this earth. You'll be missed man!
I was fortunate to have seen this band 12 times and got to know Peter and the band pretty well. I considered them friends. I miss them.
“They want to call me a pussy, you are what you eat” *flicks tongue*
what an absolute legend
I hate when he gets asked extremely personal questions. He didn't owe the interviewers anything. His body language alone is screaming the answers as he is blatantly disrespected by interrogation for such personal private information. How many interviewers actually gave a shiza about him and his well-being?! They just kept ripping his wounds wide open. Of course he is upset! Gotdang these videos make me way too emotional. Madder than a wet hornet. Fierce like a mama bear protecting her cub. Broken hearted and ugly crying while longing to reach through the screen and hold him.

Type O in the 90's - one of the best musical experiences to be had. Man, those were the days.
Agreed
Peter's remarks on Metallica. Whether you agree with him or not, he had the balls and class to "call em as he see's em". I get what he was trying to say. I am grateful I got to see Peter and the rest of the drab four before he passed away and left us all behind. I wish there was more material with Peter.
The best voice in the music industry in my opinion. Loved his passion, his tone, and through these interviews his demeanor. I'd have a beer with him in a second given the chance. "Oh god I miss you, I really miss you."

pete, for ur voice, and type o negative music, you are then immortal to those who enjoy that art form , deeply rooted in the lack of light, the very state of the human kind.
thank you, and all of type o negative musicians , for enhancing my life for many years listening to your music.

I always come back to this interview. He was such a gentle giant ! I hope he has found peace in the afterworld.

Looks like he was a really good man, despite all the hard things he went through...gracias por dejarnos música tan grandiosa, Peter
These interviews are heartbreaking to watch. Miss Peter Steele and Type O Negative so much.
i miss Peter Steele!!! he was so sweet and brilliant! his is greatly missed!!
I remember this from the past and yet I am still in tears watching this to this day.
In fact, Peter mentioned the names of two bands there, the first one was Laibach, the second one was Einstürzende Neubauten.
Thanks!
Laibach, Einstürzende Neubauten, Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, The Cure... he did have a great and varied taste in music
I miss him so much :'(
Forever a wound in my heart. I loved this human.
Even Pete thought Metallica "stopped trying" after they cut their hair. What a legend.
ok but imma defend kirk, he had an excuse to cut his hair because i think his ex girlfriend cut it so he just had to chop it off but now he still got his long hair like before though 😅😅
@@dedmagnetic Clearly, he was just a helpless bystander in his own life. Saying "no" was obviously not an option. And I can only assume she did his makeup and let him borrow her piercings too? That totally explains the track pants on stage-such a bold fashion statement! 🤣🤣
Found out about Type O Negative back in 6th grade, like 4, 5 years ago because that was the year I ever saw my crush, and I had a Bloody Kisses cd but I didn't know what it was and I had found it and the image on the cd had reminded me of her, so I put it in my cd player and instantly was hooked. I listened to Type O Negative every day for a few hours cause it was the only way for me to get my mind off her because I'd get sad because I was not her friend, and I wasn't able to hang out with her. I had really bad anxiety, and so it was extremely hard for me to just go up and talk to people, and I only had 2 friends at the time. I really wish that I would have forced myself to talk to people back then and have been more social cause if I would have I would have been better off now than I am, cause I still only have a few friends and nobody talks to me or even acts like I exist. The thing is, now that I'm actually able to talk to people, I was told the unfortunate news that she had recently got a boyfriend, and it broke my heart cause this girl was the reason that I didn't kill myself back in middle school because I was in a very dark place at the time, and she also gave me hope that I'd actually get to know what it was like to be happy. When I found out she had a bf, I pulled up a pic of her and listened to Type O in the dark by myself and cried cuz it truly broke my heart, so now me and Peter have 1 extra thing in common we both lost the people we loved cuz we screwed up, although unlike Peter I might one day get a shot with her again. My one biggest regret is that I didn't attempt to talk to her back in middle school or anyone but I can't do anything to fix the past I can only attempt to do better in the future, and to add to that my aunt scratched the hell out of my Bloody Kisses cd back in 7th grade and a about a month ago I was talking about how I was gonna get it resurfaced so I could use it again but my ex friend said that they were trash and he didn't like how I always had the cd with my so he broke it, by snapping it in half knowing what the cd had meant to me, but the night before he did that I had put it in my cd player for old times sake and the last song it ever played was Blood and Fire specifically the part where Peter says " Moi cherie you remain a mystery to me. I see your face in every flame, with no answers, I have only myself to blame, of all the women that I have known, they're not you, I'd rather be alone." I built a plaque for the cd cause even though I can't use it, I can look at it and remember old memories. I bought another copy, but it's not the same because the other one has sentimental value, and it was also an original copy from 1993 which oddly enough was gifted to me when I was 4 years old and it was also the same day that we sadly lost Peter.
RIP Peter Steele, and I thank you and the rest of the band for all your wonderful music.
Pete was and always will be a breath of fresh air. As I watch this now, though I've seen it before, I realize just what a gentle person he must have been. TON's music has always touched me in ways no other band has and I hope we as fans keep Pete and TON alive in our hearts forever!
Peter Steele had one of the best head of hair in the industry. Here he’s in his 40s and his hair rivals dudes in their 20s. He clearly doesn’t understand that these musicians cut their long hair off not because they wanted to, but rather they were loosing it and gradually wore shorter and shorter hairstyles to cover up the receding hair as many men do as they age.
poor peter. he was a heart breaking guy. so so sad. he was alone and lost. noone to call on his own. he was the only boy among five girls. this man went through alot of pain in his short life I can't even imagine what he has gone through but by interviews and songs he sang he really tells the world whats happeing to him but yet the world don't care enough to listen to his cries for help. so he basically gave up hopes and dreams to live anymore. its hared to live such a hard ache live like poor peter did. I think that no human being should ever live a horrible life with fame or without. live a happy life and the rest leave it to god to heal it for you, dont do it yourself alone or you will end up like peter steele dead alone thats what happened to him cause he wanted that to happen to him die alone cause he felt alone in this dark world.
Peter Steele is the reason I picked up a bass guitar. But Peter was a complete mess in this interview & I'm sorry I don't buy the Metallica cutting there hair bullshit,it's just hair. now there music they did change though.
+Sudsy Sutherland he was using the hair comment to say they changed their sound and got sloppy
Sudsy Sutherland But he is right in a fact that lots of people stopped listening to Metallica in Load/ Reload era...some of them "new" fans were shocked when I played them Kill em all😂
In recent years I am playing Type O negative more than Metallica...
Roya Saifi did you meet them or get to talk to them , personally? Let us know anything not too personal ☺
wow, again, thanks for sharing this. Peter Steele's candour and outspoken honesty if humbling to say the least. And god was he funny. Despite his obvious trials and tribulations, I think he remained a thoroughly genuine and good person. I hope he is in a good place right now. RIP Peter, you are remembered.
The true nature of being an artist is to grow and evolve as a person and an artist ... reflecting it in your music and style. The day an artist only writes and maintains its image to please its fans that will be the day that he/she is not a true artist anymore. Fans are great, if they dont follow you on your journey while you grow and change, than so be it, there will always be new fans willing take the ride from beginning to end to enjoy your art, either way. May Peter Steele rest in peace,
Man... I listened to Type O Negative since i was like 5(27 now) thanks to my mom... Crazy to think how much they, Dio, Audioslave, offspring and linkin park have helped shap my life and personality into what it is today, specially Typo O. I still listen to them every other day, every day in October... Wouldn't have become a goth or started viewing the world as i do. I feel very much like Steele here, this interview just puts a lot of perspective into my life. I love this band and i always will just as i will never stop being a goth or embracing the darker parts of life. Its also wierd to learn he died the same year less than a month from Dio who is just as important to me.
Type O Negative is my favorite Metal band. Yes, metal band. any band that plays heavy riffs with the whole " E to Bb thing"... and frequently uses fast tempos, that , to me, is metal. i am obsessed with them. collecting all the albums, obsessing over them. i love this band to death
I still miss him and type o negative to this day and I will probably say that on my death bed. I saw them twice and I missed the chance to meet them. Rest in peace Pete. Type Os music will always be one of my favorite influences ❤
Everytime i watch this I almost cry. Its so heartbreaking. Pete was such a warm hearted guy with so much love to give and he just wanted to help people where ever he could. This world just left him alone in a very very bad way and in the end he died alone. If you ask me he didn't die on a heart attack or sth. I think he died from a broken heart because he was all alone and the ones he loved either died or cheated on him and that makes me cry right now. Thanks for everything, Pete! I still miss you. Almost 6 years after...
You're right, he didn't die from a heart attack. It was an aortic aneurysm. The decade of hard-core cocaine use and him being an alcoholic until his last day didn't help.
Phil The Writer Totally Agree. Love You Peter Steel. Rip Beautiful Soul and Man. He knows exactly what he's saying. The Real Truth.
@@@sarcasticallyrearrangedDeranged you're not only uninformed & ignorant but out of order as well. He was sober for almost 9 months when he died & he was very proud f that for himself, as he should have been!
He did not die from anything related to his heart.
@ Phil The Writer you also have no idea what you have written. He did die alone, that much is correct as the individual who brought on his death didn't even bother to go in the ambulance with him when they were taking him away so unfortunately one of his greatest fears of dying all by himself was realized.
However, you have the rest all wrong & are merely speculating as if you're informed which you aren't
@@samimissy8190 I didn't know all that. What in the hell happened?
@@michellelambert8729 as far as what specifically? That was a broad question based on all the above comments
Fantastic video interview! Thank you so very much for posting it in it's entirety! He was a very personable, humble man from what I saw.
This guy was awesome!
R.I.P.
"i didnt invent the wheel" he just made it better. Peter steel is a God to Music. RIP man you are missed.
The more I watch Peter the more I love him he was so loyal to his fans and so were his fans
I Love you're Beautiful Long Hair. You're a Beautiful Soul and Man. Metal Legend Forever. RIP Green Man.
right on angela
lisa macdougall Thanks Lisa. God he's so Beautiful in Every Way. I Miss Him.
@@angeladavis4019 me too
@@angeladavis4019 what your fav type o negative album?
lisa macdougall I Love a lot of them. But I'd have to say October Rust. What's Yours?
I love type o negative they will always be my favorite band I never get tired of listing to them. no band will ever come close to sounding like them no one can sing like peter no one. rest in peace peter we all miss you
Pete seemed like a real awesome and unique character. R.I.P. Pete.
We Love you Peter Steele. So Missed. Your A Beautiful Man Inside and out. Rip Beautiful Soul.
Peter was a real clown, but also so brutally honest at times. The world would be a so much better place with more people like him.
Does anyone else cry & occasionally giggle when listening to Pete talk now we've lost him? 😢 because I miss him yet 😂 giggle because he was a very witty and funny man. RIP BEAUTIFUL MAN & THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC & LYRICS THAT GOT ME & MANY OTHERS THROUGH SOME OF THE WORST TIMES ❤
Piotr, Piotr ... I was blessed to grow up with your music in 90's and that I was able to addict few more. Listening you right now and you know what's cool? My 6 yo kids love you too, mean there is much more to offer in your music then simple sound and empty phrases which we got this days. See ya on the other side!
I feel lucky I at least got to see them once, even tho Pete was in rough shape and fucked up during the show, it was still amazing. There were so many ppl stuffed into the balcony I thought it was gonna collapse. The vibe was unlike anything you can replicate or come close to. It’s hard to explain. The people who have been lucky enough to see them live know what I’m talking about. Miss ya Pete, and all your corrosive Noo-YAWK humor. There’s been no one like you, before or since.
At the end of his answer to I believe it's the 2nd to last question, "....but it's bittersweet because....I fucked up." Nobody's perfect, Pete. We still love you 😭💔
I feel so crushed.....His words helped me along when I was a kid. It's just a shame that right when he was getting himself together this happened. R.I.P. Pete.
His hair is always so FUCKING beautiful! I'm jealous but I miss him!:3
I miss him so much, Pete was so influential to me in my teenage years. I'm very thankful that I got to see ToN live in 2007, without considering I might not get another chance to do so again.
its sad to see him that way.....
I seen them live 13 times from 94 to 2010. and I miss Peter more than I should it feels like I lost my best friend!
I got into Type O at 15 and I never managed to see them.
Big dude, bigger heart! I miss the green man. A genius.
È incredibilmente triste e perturbante leggere nei bellissimi occhi tristi e un po’ spenti, dalla voce a tratti tremante e dalla sua postura, quanto questo magnifico uomo ed artista sia tramortito e desolato da una vita che, nonostante i successi, la ricchezza, la stima e l’ammirazione, non è giunta a renderlo davvero felice.
Non intendo santificarlo e neanche deresponsabilizzarlo per i suoi numerosi problemi, ma mi dispiace immensamente leggere nelle sue parole risentimento, delusione, asprezza e rassegnazione.
Specialmente il momento in cui parla di quanto gli manchino i suoi genitori e la sua voce poderosa si spezza e i suoi occhi si velano.
Da fan lo amo moltissimo e non so cosa darei per averlo potuto conoscere e dargli un abbraccio, ma resta il mistero di Un uomo di genio e dal carisma immenso che, assurdamente, non ha amato sé stesso , è stato preda della sua fragilità e tenerezza e non ha creduto nella vita contribuendo alla sua autodistruzione.
Ciononostante il mio amore per lui e la sua musica è enorme ed incorruttibile e Peter resterà sempre uno dei miei artisti preferiti ed uno dei miei sogni erotici ricorrenti.💚🤍🖤
Pete will always be remembered and cherished. TON will always be in my top 3 of favorite bands. I love you Pete.
I love this man. And this interview is heartbreaking.
God bless that man, his music lives on for sure
He was more right than he even knew
I used to sit in my apartment in college, and listen to Type 0 Negative, thinking I was probably their only fan out of my entire social circle. Then, a few years later, after I got out of college, Peter died, the band broke up, and one of my co-workers told me about it. I had no idea he was a fan too. We ended up hanging out, talking music, and wishing we could've watched the band perform live.
Wow, great interview.
man, peter was a really hurt man, i just want to hug him, peter we fucking miss you. all of your songs having to do with death hit me hard. so much emotion. peter we love you. rest in peace green man. you will never be forgotten.
Great interview, great man. R.I.P Mr Steele.
This is hard to watch - This was a time when Peter was being treated for the effects of the drug induced psychosis he had found himself in. Antipsychotic meds create the dry mouth and the involuntary body movements and the transfer of thought to speech. I adore Peter - I hope there is a place for him and his parents and his cats and all he loved. Hopefuly he still loves -will that huge heart
I'm glad Peter mentioned Einstürzende Neubauten, amazing and most creative band ever.
Thank you so very much for those interviews...other interviews have been a bit lacking regarding content.
''Rip off the best, rip off Black Sabbath''. Fuck yeah!
One of a kind! He is sorely missed. RIP Pete!
I think his comment is so real.do you ask a mother which child you love best.a mother would say she loves her babies all the same.yes they are all different,but a mom loves all her babies the same.a real true comment.thanks
Madonna was the one that disliked this video.
Rise from the grave and form a supergroup with other great dead musicians!!
RIP BABY!!!!!! Love ya man.
Love you petrus....god bless your soul brother.....in heaven i want to meet you, and give you a big hug for so many beautiful moments you give me with your timeless music and lirics.rest in peace green men.we love you n miss you.but....i see you in the other side, when my time's come.
great interview.. hes always honest and down to earth..
@bekicide: You nailed it. Type O, like he said, is a band whose image is so crucial to their mythology. To see Peter Steele as a regular dude is refreshing on a human level but weird and kind of a letdown as a fan. I met him briefly at the VIP bar at L'Amour in Brooklyn in 1986 and he scared the shit out of me. He was totally playing up his image, even back then in the Carnivore days, kind of tongue in cheek but it worked and I've followed him ever since.
But yeah, he is so wasted in this clip.
Great interview..Pete's a really cool, thoughtful subject..you got some really good answers from him..thanks for posting..
R.I.P . Peter.!!!
Bloody Kisses is one of my all time favorite albums. To be honest it takes me a lot to even listen to someone new, i didn't care for the follow up album, but it doesn't matter, to me Bloody Kisses from start to finish is just magical. I've never heard a band like this before or after. It was a huge influence on me. RIP brother.
Eric Albenze I probably wouldn't be Alive today if it wasn't for the sonic therapy and saving grace of the album Bloody Kisses , I agree it is something magical or whatever about it (-) GOD BLESS PETE (-) 🎸R.I.P 💚🎸
Don't like the masterpiece that is October Rust? Opinion discarded
Pete was a very intelligent man. His answers were dead on.
"then call me a p*ssy, you are what you eat" I LAUGHED SO HARD
I trully can't believe he was so alone, breaks my heart :( he deserved so much better! Just want to give him a hug ♥
Estela Naïad he drove anyone close to him away
RIP Legend Peter Steele
"You are what you eat." The little tongue waggle and smirk right after. Damn, even when he's at a low point he was so damn cute!
I do have to disagree with the whole band image/changing things as artists should be able to do what they want with their sound and look. As long as they are being respectful to fans and others and taking care of themselves, does it matter? But in this case, I love Steele's long hair.
Your profile picture is real cool just figured you should be informed
Perhaps Peter is being sarcastic when he talks about Metallica cutting their hair and changing their image, considering Peter changed his image from Carnivore into what became Type O, because he wanted a female fan base, it's really hypocritical of him. Peter said he grew up and evolved. I like to think Metallica also grew up and evolved, because they also required a larger fan base with their new sound.
So eloquent, so real
he was so inteligent...
interred321 Ironic that you spelt intelligent incorrectly. Just sayin', lol.
fuck off
interred321 ахахахахха брат
Sure wish he was still with us. He was a no nonsense speak the truth kind of guy.
I have just became a new fan and discovering how much I enjoy listening to Pete as I love what he had to say. Common sense and not trying to be politically correct. I love it. What would Pete have to say if he was alive with today's woke bulls___!!
When he talked about his mistakes, parents and loved ones it was very emotional to hear him open up like that.
The pure honesty of Pete is what made him special for sure. RIP Pete.
