Slow, Deep & Hard

Well, I was never the biggest Type O Negative fan, nor did I ever have more than a casual interest in Carnivore. Before "Slow, Deep & Hard" came out, Pamela Lynch (ex-Intrinsic Action) was managing the Paris office of Roadrunner Records, so I got an advance copy of the album on cassette, which I played to death at the time. Upon learning of Pete Steele's death today, I had to put in on. It may not really hold up that well, but it does have its moments. I pretty much lost interest in the band after that, as I thought that their take on gothic-influenced metal was really heavy-handed. Still, it was a shocker, when John B. texted me this morning...
