It was followed by a couple of other classics, mainly the brilliantly melodic “Love You To Death,” which is probably the song that got many people turned on to Type O to begin with. All sane people should therefore concentrate on the melody and general atmosphere of the song, and simply let go of the lyrics …Īnyway, “Wolf Moon” ranks among Type O’s finest moments, and it really got the until-then very reserved crowd going. On the other hand, this could turn out much more information then you ever needed about Steele and his sexual preferences. So if you ever wanted to know what that particular sensation might be like, study the lyrics to the song closely. This could be a pretty messy affair, according to Steele, apparently happy to share his first-hand experiences with the crowd. It certainly didn’t do charismatic frontman Peter Steele’s vocals any favours, which is a shame since he normally commands the microphone with great authority.Īfter a rather scrappy and slow start, things started to pick up with the classic “Wolf Moon,” introduced by Steele - a self-proclaimed expert in the noble art of cunnilingus - as a song about the possible downside of going down on a woman during the time of her period. Unfortunately, this time around their set was hampered by technical problems, and the sound remained pretty bad throughout the whole concert. Having seen them set the same venue on fire back in 1997, I was anxious to find out if they could still deliver the goods. The recent Type O Negative tour took the Brooklyn goth-rockers to Oslo in support of their sixth album (including a best of compilation, dubbed “The Least Worst Of” in typical Type O fashion), which is tellingly titled “Life Is Killing Me.” And -if we are to believe the critics - it showcases a return to form.
