Peter Steele morreu há catorze anos...

     

Peter Thomas Ratajczyk (Brooklyn, New York, January 4, 1962 – Scranton, Pennsylvania, April 14, 2010), better known by his stage name Peter Steele, was the lead singer, bassist and composer for the gothic metal band Type O Negative. Before forming Type O Negative, he had created the metal group Fallout and the thrash band Carnivore.

As the frontman for Type O Negative, Steele was known for his vampiric effect, towering stature, rich bass-baritone vocals, and a dark, often self-deprecating sense of humor. "His lyrics were often intensely personal, dealing with subjects including love, loss, and addiction." Steele credited Black Sabbath and The Beatles as his key musical inspirations.

Death

Peter Steele died of an aortic aneurysm (initially reported as heart failure) on April 14, 2010 at the age of 48. Prior to his death, Steele was preparing to write and record new music. The remaining members of Type O Negative decided to dissolve the band rather than replace Steele, with Johnny Kelly stating "Even if there is somebody who could take his place it wouldn’t matter. We don’t have any interest in continuing. It’s impossible – it hasn't even come up in any kind of discussion. When Peter died, Type O Negative died with him." On November 21, 2011, an oak tree was planted in Prospect Park to commemorate Steele.

Peter Steele, o vocalista dos Type O Negative, nasceu há sessenta e dois anos...

 

Peter Steele, nome artístico de Petrus T. Ratajczyk, (Brooklyn, 4 de janeiro de 1962 - Nova Iorque, 14 de abril de 2010) foi o vocalista, baixista e principal compositor da banda de doom metal Type O Negative. Antes de fazer parte deste grupo, tocou nas bandas Fallout e Carnivore.

Como líder dos Type O Negative, Steele era conhecido por seu visual vampírico, o vocal baixo-barítono e um senso de humor autodepreciativo. A sua altura, cerca de 2,03 m, juntamente com o seu aspeto e voz profunda, davam-lhe uma presença forte em palco. As letras que escreveu para as canções da banda frequentemente apresentam caráter pessoal, tratando de temas como o amor, o sexo, a morte, a complexidade existencial, o suicídio e a política.

  

 

Morte

Peter Steele morreu devido a uma septicemia, causada por uma diverticulite, relatado inicialmente como insuficiência cardíaca, em 14 de abril de 2010, aos 48 anos. Antes da sua morte estava a preparar-se para escrever e gravar novas músicas.

Os membros restantes dos Type O Negative decidiram acabar com a banda, ao invés de substituir Steele, com Johnny Kelly a declarar:

“

Mesmo que haja alguém que possa tomar o lugar dele, isso não importaria. Não temos nenhum interesse em continuar. É impossível – nem sequer surgiu em nenhum tipo de discussão. Quando Peter morreu, a banda Type O Negative morreu com ele.

”

Peter Steele, o vocalista dos Type O Negative, nasceu há sessenta anos

 

Peter Steele, nome artístico de Petrus T. Ratajczyk, (Brooklyn, 4 de janeiro de 1962 - Nova Iorque, 14 de abril de 2010) foi o vocalista, baixista e principal compositor da banda de Doom Metal Type O Negative. Antes de fazer parte deste grupo, tocou nas bandas Fallout e Carnivore.

Biografia

Peter Steele nasceu em Brooklyn, Nova Iorque, numa região habitada por imigrantes polacos, escoceses e russos, medindo cerca de dois metros. Antes de começar a fazer turnê dos Type O Negative, ele trabalhou para o 'Departamento de Parques de Nova Iorque', dirigindo camiões de lixo e rolos compressores.

Steele foi capa de uma edição de 1995 da revista americana Playgirl. Após saber por meio de Kenny Hickney, seu companheiro de banda, que apenas 23% das revistas vendidas foram adquiridas por mulheres, Steele se arrependeu de ter posado nu e mais tarde fez referência a isso numa música intitulada "I Like Goils", do álbum Life Is Killing Me.

Em 2005, o Type O Negative saiu da Roadrunner Records. O motivo para a saída da banda foi, de acordo com Steele, o lançamento de uma coletânea (The Best of Type O Negative) sem a autorização do grupo.

Antes de formar os Type O Negative, Steele fez parte de outras duas bandas: os Fallout e, posteriormente, os Carnivore.

Peter Steele morreu devido a uma septicemia, causada por uma diverticulite, relatado inicialmente como insuficiência cardíaca, em 14 de abril de 2010, aos 48 anos. Antes da sua morte estava a se preparar para escrever e gravar novas músicas.
