Type O Negative performed their last present on October 31, 2007 at Harpo’s in Detroit, MI. The band was engaged on a brand new report when on April 10, 2010, frontman and bassist Peter Steele died in his sleep. Type O Negative confirmed they had been performed after Steele’s loss of life and has caught to it – the band by no means reunited, by no means did a tribute present, nothing.
Now in a brand new interview with the Speak Toomey podcast, Type O Negative guitarist Kenny Hickey stated he’d be all the way down to lastly do a tribute present with some totally different vocalists. “I believe so. I might do one thing like that, completely,” stated Hickey.
“As a result of at this level, the band appeared to transcend into a complete new era and stuff. And I believe it will be actually cool to get a few key singers, actual guys, or perhaps one man or no matter, to return and do it as a tribute. Completely. Perhaps 4 or 5 reveals, one thing like that. If we will get Josh [Silver, former Type O Negative keyboardist] to do it, yeah, [I’d be up for it].”
Hickey elaborated that Silver has been performed with music for fairly a while, and that he’d possible be the sticking level. “Josh is simply, like, he is performed with music. He appears like he is moved on, however I do not know. We’ll see. You get nostalgic after a time, you recognize what I imply? So that you by no means know. You may by no means say by no means.”
And I imply actually, why not? It is like Type O Negative can be coming again as Type O Negative 2.0. It would be a cool tribute that I am positive a great deal of folks would like to see. I am positive Nate Garrett would answer the call in a heartbeat.
Hickey beforehand weighed in on a hypothetical Type O Negative tribute present again in 2023, saying throughout an interview with Scott Penfold of Loaded Radio: “Folks have approached us to attempt to reform the band with a singer and go on the street. ‘Trigger all people needs a cash seize. We personally do not assume Peter is replaceable by anyone, and it simply would not work.
“A tribute I would like to do. I am positive Johnny [Kelly, drums] would like to do it. I do know Josh [Silver, keyboards] would not do it, as a result of Josh is choosing up physique components in East New York [during his work as a paramedic]. He is not gonna cease that to start out rehearsing. However yeah, we might do it with visitor musicians and stuff. If anyone had the concept and received it collectively and received the logistics collectively, positive — I might be into it.”
