1993. Bloody Kisses

is the third album by the band Type O Negative. It is also the last recording to feature band’s original line-up, as drummer Sal Abruscato would leave Type O Negative in late 1993. The album further established Type O Negative motifs, such as including cover songs restylized into gloomy gothic metal, sample-heavy soundscapes in between songs, and dry, satirical humor. This album includes a cover of the Seals and Crofts song “Summer Breeze”.

Bloody Kisses was the first album on Roadrunner Records to achieve gold and platinum certification.

The most successful single from Bloody Kisses was the song “Black No.1 (Little Miss Scare-All)”, which poked fun at and paid tribute to gothic subculture stereotypes. A radio edit of the song achieved modest airplay and the song was a staple of Type O Negative’s concerts.

The tracks “Kill All the White People” (live performances included Lord Nelson from Stuck Mojo on vocals) and “We Hate Everyone” (with Alan Robert, Mina (credited as Keith) Caputo and Joey Z. from Life of Agony providing additional backing vocals) were written in response to the controversy over the band’s alleged racist sentiments that emerged after a tour in Europe and because of Peter Steele’s previous band Carnivore’s explicit lyrics. They feature lyrics mocking the whole issue.

“Bloody Kisses” is, indeed, like Peter said “the first true Type O Negative album”, because it detaches from the previous albums (namely, “Slow, Deep and Hard” and “The Origin of the feces”) through its ideology: “Bloody Kisses” really highlights depression and despair through depressive and desperate music precisely, whereas the two previous albums, though employing the same themes, were envisioning them through a rather funny, punkish, full of scorn and black humor dominated music.

this is Type O’s best release. It is the second doomiest only to World Coming Down and it is certainly their darkest, most depressive release. Strongly recommended to doom fans, goth fans, and metal fans in general.

What kind of Halloween are you?:

50s Halloween: Going to the drive-in on a cool October night. Flickering black and white movies. The neon-lights of a diner, shining over a sidewalk covered in fallen leaves. Teenage rockabilly werewolves. Bed sheet ghosts. Smoking housewives, all prettied up to hand out candy.

60s Halloween: Chic, mini-skirt wearing girls wandering through haunted houses. Faded VW bugs parked next to old cemeteries. Vampire mistresses with straight black hair, wearing cat-eye liner. Dead Man’s Curve. LSD on Hallow’s Eve.

70s Halloween: Colorful vaccuform-masks. Black streets lined with Jack-O-lanterns and muscle cars. Long haired, bell bottomed teens blaring Black Sabbath. Marijuana smoke intermingling with the smell of dead leaves. Science Fiction. Double Feature. Masked killers waiting for their chance.

80’s Halloween: Eight-bit skeletons on vintage arcade games. Groups of adventurous twelve year olds looking for monsters. The glow of a flashlight cutting through a gnarled forest. Fooling around with a ouija board as The Smith’s play softly on tape. Goth kids holding candlelight vigil.
