hard to believe there hasn't been one (unless I missed it). anyway, this was one of my earliest forays into metal, when the slow tempos and deep vocals confused me. still spin most of their albums. Peter is missed. so which is the best?

feel like Life is Killing Me was a bit underrated, as it kinda streamlined and changed up their sound to something...poppier? I love "I Don't Wanna Be Me" and the "Angry Inch" cover, obv eyerolls at "I Like Goils".

World Coming Down also underrated as it has some of my favorite songs of theirs, finding it hard to vote against Bloody Kisses though. will have to nap on this one.

I was wondering if anybody was actually gonna vote. I find this band's appeal so inexplicable. The songs are so slow and boring, his voice is mind-crushingly ponderous and not at all cool, the lyrics weren't smart or funny and the interviews were worse...I know so many people, people I like, who are into this band and I do not get it at all. I actually feel more put off by Type O fans than Tool fans, 'cause there was at least a period when I was willing to try and like Tool.

I've always been meaning to give this band a shot. It helps that Tara Vanflower from Lycia guested on some of their stuff.

a much more interesting band than Tool for mine, with a much better sense of humour.

tool has an ok sense of humor but type o negative were genuinely funny.

Possibly the only metal guy to appear in Playgirl?

Wow, that cover says Meat Puppets, were they posing too?

Didn't see this poll but would have voted Bloody Kisses, though I like them all.

Never had more than a passing interest in TON, is it just me or is most of their music quite poorly produced and mixed?

the joke should be over once the kid is eaten. (chap), Tuesday, 7 April 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link
