Deal with the Devil: "All Hallows Eve" is about this.Life Is Killing Me was a brief return to their earlier sound, (Though with much more vulgar humor) but Dead Again would return to the depression. This trope culminated with World Coming Down, an album which Steele couldn't even listen to due to it's personal content.
TYPO NEGATIVE FULL
They went full bore into this trope with October Rust, which, apart from a couple joke skits, is mostly entirely VERY dark, serious ballads about break-ups, betrayal, self-loathing, and death. Bloody Kisses still had quite a bit of it, but included a significant amount of dark, self-loathing songs. Darker and Edgier: Though the band has always had very dark lyrics, the albums Slow, Deep, and Hard and The Origin Of The Feces lightened it up with healthy amounts of (dark) humor.A medley of Santana's arrangements of "Evil Ways", "Oye Como Va" and "Black Magic Woman" (all were, in themselves covers), on the CD included with the Symphony For The Devil DVD."Angry Inch" from Hedwig And The Angry Inch on Life Is Killing Me."Highway Star" by Deep Purple on Nascar:Crank It Up.The group also performed "Back In The USSR", "Dear Prudence" and "Magical Mystery Tour" live. A medley of The Beatles songs "Day Tripper", "If I Needed Someone" and "I Want You " on World Coming Down."Cinnamon Girl" (originally by Neil Young ) on October Rust."Summer Breeze" on Bloody Kisses, a cover of the Isley Brothers arrangement of the Seals & Croft song (although slower).The 1994 reissue also includes a cover of Black Sabbath 's "Paranoid" as an extra track, which was recorded that year and rejected from the Nativity In Black Tribute album in favour of the group's version of "Black Sabbath" (which also has an alternate version called "From The Satanic Perspective"). "Hey Pete" (a reworded cover of Jimi Hendrix 's version of "Hey Joe") on "The Origin Of The Feces".Cover Version: They liked to do this once per album with the exception of "Dead Again.".Covers Always Lie: Bloody Kisses and Dead Again have no songs about what their covers depict, The Origin of the Feces isn't a live album, and the pseudo-runic font in the October Rust booklet only means the album has not a single song about vikings.Peter was nicknamed "Green Man", and often wore a green tank top. Color Motif: Most of the album covers feature green color prominently.Careful with That Axe: The intro to "Tripping A Blind Man" features a rather sudden and high scream from Peter.He also wrote the lyrics to Agnostic Front's "Public Assistance" note and cowrote lyrics on four other songs on the album Cause For Alarm, however he didn't sing on the track.The Cameo: You can hear Peter's voice on Biohazard's 2001 song "Cross the Line.".Call-and-Response Song: The chorus of "Unsuccessfully Coping with the Natural Beauty of Infidelity.".The US cassette version has a version with tape chewing noises instead.
Deliberately evoked on the joke intro track "Skip It" from World Coming Down, which is designed to sound like a CD skipping.From "Be My Druidess": "I'll do anything to make you come.".From "Love You to Death": "Am I good enough for you?".1," the chorus and " Loving you was like. From "Christian Woman:" " Jesus Christ looks like me.".Lampshaded with The Origin of the Feces, a studio performance edited to sound like a terrible concert, which had a sticker on the front reading "NOT Live at Brighton Beach.".Blatant Lies: Johnny Kelly being credited as drummer on October Rust, World Coming Down, and Life is Killing Me despite the fact that those albums use drum machines.Black Comedy: Quite frequent in their lyrics, though not quite to the same extent as Carnivore."Everybody smokes pot" is a common mondegreen for that section of "I Am The Walrus" (it's officially "everybody, up, up"), while Monte Conner was the vice president of Roadrunner Records while Type O Negative were on the label.
