Bloody Kisses

It's a good thing that they don't care what I think, because I think that they are kind of shitty

Well it’s my own submission, why wouldn’t I give it a 5/5? Type O Negative was one of those underrated genius bands imo. They had an ear for great music and every song is just dripping with sarcasm, little winks at the camera etc, all while making you wonder if they actually are serious. I think whoever described them as 50% Sabbath, 50% Beatles kinda got it right. You can hear both influences in there really clearly once you know. And the first few songs on this album are just all-time. 5/5.

I don’t know that I need anymore early 90s metal, thanks

y 1 Sounds like Metallica if they went goth

Not only do Type O go for broke in length, they keep it seamless. The project's uniformly campy, but everything else is dynamic goth bliss.

Yeah, this is right up my alley. I think it is a hair bloated, but it makes up for it in the vibe.

It's hard to tell just how "in on it" they are with their own inherent silliness, but it really does put out an unmatched vibe that mostly makes up for the bloat.

One of the cornerstones of gothic metal and the first peak in Type O Negative's discography. Along with Paradise Lost, they gave this genre its shine in the 90s, renewing and making even more oppressive the original gothic rock of the previous decade

in the garden of eden kinda vibe. daddy chill. 11 minute songs and you're not Mars Volta? please.

Kinda peak self-important Goth, so dark, so serious. I don't mind it as music, though.

Surprisingly melodic metal with flashes of grunge, and do I hear some shoegaze in there as well? A more compelling mixture of genres than much of the metal on the actual list.

I've never chosen to listen to them before. Goth/metal/rock band. Very vampiric. Interesting album.

Interesting sound. More of this experimentation with different sounds should have been on the original list, instead of so many repeated artists/genres

Bruh. 3/10

4/10. It's a good thing these guys say they don't care what I think, because I didn't enjoy this music very much. Like, the summer breeze cover was fun because it was so unexpected and different, but I think Gothic metal just isn't for me.

My brother had this album on CD back when we were young. I couldn't stand it back then, and still can't. I don't care whether or not they are consiously being tongue-in-cheek with their sound and lyrics; it still sounds like a band that is massively constipated.

While hearing Black No. 1 I clearly remember the gothmetalheads going wild on this on the dancefloor in my younger years. Especially the ladies were particularly fond of Peter Steele. As then I can't fathom what the appeal was. Still can't actually. For me it is all over the place and no real point of reference.

Not my cup of tea...

Didn’t enjoy this at all. 2 stars.

Knew about these guys but thought they were heavy metal and definitely missed out on the goth part. There's some interesting instrumentation going on here, and I enjoyed a good deal of the arrangements, but man this thing is long – didn't look at the runtime before it started, and it just felt like it kept going and going without end. As a result, things get a bit tiring by the midpoint (which could've made a decent LP all in itself) and become an absolute slog by the end. The theatrics were fun at first, but really wore me down and made me tired of listening.

Not for me!

I can hear the heavy goth style reminding momentarily of Sisters of Mercy. Tends to get a little long and meandering. Not really my taste, but fun and not entirely awful. I admire their sense of humour.
