Aw fuck. Absent the context provided by the internet, I missed all that stuff and only really listened to October Rust.
For reference, here’s the quote I mentioned where he talked about Iraq:
“I am very proud of Germany and France for staying out of the war in Iraq. Even like more fascinating is that it is the first time in many years that Germany and France agree so much! I think it has something to do to their economy. But to get back at the war in Iraq, I do not think the USA should be there and I do not understand why the USA feels that it has to be the world’s police department. That is why the World Trade Center came down, because we support Israel. Say that back home and people say anti-Semite! Just because I do not agree with the Israeli government does not mean I do not like Jewish people. The one has got nothing to do with the other. My point is that when we stick our noses in world business then the World Trade Center is coming down. I found it interesting why we do not walk into Cuba or North Korea. It is because of the oil, that is all. I always think who the fuck are we to go into these middle Eastern countries and go like: we have to save you from yourselves. All the people in Iraq are happy now but it is the same thing that happened when the Germans marched into the Ukraine 63 years ago. First they were happy because they hated the Russians. But a year later they were all dead or prisoners or something. Let’s see how the Iraqi people feel in a year because they will live then in an occupied country. The Americans will not leave.”
Peter Steele was a land of contrasts. My [way too charitable] read was always that he was a bog-standard 90s shock rocker edgelord with Lawn Guy Land CHUD characteristics – basically a 7-foot parrot that occasionally squawks out isolationist [paleo-]conservative talking points while earnestly believing that he is apolitical. This is just how a lot of dipshit GenXers were in the 90s. They get that Rush Limbaugh in 'em and they get all antsy in their pantsy.
Meanwhile, “I Don’t Wanna Be Me” is so close to being a chronically depressed closeted trans/egg anthem that it’s eyebrow-raising, given the source. I think one of our resident trans goth Maoists could have fixed him, but the mental age gap with a himbo like Pete might have been problematic.
It is sooooo fucking weird the singer from Agnostic front and the singer from Nausea are married and have a kid.
I could never get into a lot of NYC bands. Must be something in the air there.
There’s like 5 good ones.
Agnostic Front is full of chuds, that’s been known for years.
Sick of It All is cool though, they used to beat up Nazis and had a song about AIDS on their 1992 album Just Look Around.
He also wrote that song “Kill All the White People” but in an “ironic” racist/anti-black liberation sort of way.
Well goddamn
For one, he posed nude in Playgirl, then wrote the incredibly homophobic song I Like Goils when he found out that the vast majority of the magazine’s readership was gay men.
Huge CW if you look up the lyrics
Type o Negative sucks anyway.
deleted by creator
The worst guitar tone of all time
Sounds like the evil twin of Joey Steele. As shitty as Stalin was based.
Thirstposting, Proceed With Caution
Yes, but he was still so daddy
Lord knows I would’ve if I could’ve… damn, I gotta cross my legs to not feel so weird every time I see a picture of that man…
UGHHHHHHHHHH
😫😫😫😫
When you have a type, and that type is “Clancy Brown as The Kurgan in Highlander (1986)”
He is ‘classically’ good looking, or however you wanna put it, but…
he looks like a fucking troll 🧟♂️
edit: I found the playgirl photos, you’re welcome, content warning
Tap for spoiler
Of course I’ve already seen them, though
Also, still crossing my legs looking at them
he must have been very embarrassed, he looks very silly 🤣
dunno if it’s true, but back in the day people said that it was supposedly the worst-selling Playgirl issue of all times
Next-level hog posting
Also, his mom saw these and asked him if he was cold because he had shrinkage
Damn didn’t know that, that sucks
Never got into his music, thankfully. Shit, had to look up who he was.
His cock wasnt even that great, if he were average height nobody would care about it
Good to know, I hated Type O Negative anyways.
The Peter Steele post on the old Electrical Audio forum is the only thing i remember about the guy nowadays. Completely forgot he existed.
Electrical Audio, like the amp company? What was the thread about?
Steve Albini’s studio, it has a forum. The thread was just “Peter Steele dead at 48” and the post lasted ten years because people were making fun of him.
Lmao I’m gonna go look that up
