Pete Steele, the vampiric, giant frontman of Type O Negative died of heart failure on April 14th.
Steele was an enormous dude! In both physical size and talent! He had one of the most unique voices in metal, and is one of my favorites because of that deep tone like Lurch from the "Addams Family". You'll be missed... R.I.P.
“There are no atheists in foxholes, they say, and I was a foxhole atheist for a long time. But after going through a midlife crisis and having many things change very quickly, it made me realize my mortality. And when you start to think about death, you start to think about what’s after it. And then you start hoping there is a God. For me, it’s a frightening thought to go nowhere. I also can’t believe that people like Stalin and Hitler are gonna go to the same place as Mother Teresa.” - Pete Steele
