The record’s title is an apt descriptor of what is found inside. Emerging from the dissolution of industrial death metal giants Godflesh, Jesu filters lilting pop ideas through angular aural destruction. A foundational group for the funeral doom genre, in later years moved to a more dirge rock direction, as seen on this record. Straight up pure goth rock, a classic band with a number of great records.įuneral - From These Wounds. Downer metal.įields of the Nephilim - Dawnrazor. Sort of strikes me as a bit of a halfway between TON and Alice In Chains. A few records off the top of my head (a good chance you may be familiar with some or all, but I don’t see them get mentioned all to often in relation to Type O):Įnd of Green - Infinity. That said, there are some artists/albums that to me can hit a similar vibe, even if they don’t sound sonically outright similar to TON. Type O obviously occupy a fairly unique space, as you said since Peter was so instrumental to their sound and individual in his own musical creations, as such it’s really hard to point to any group or album as “this is like TON”, at least without it being an obvious clone or ripoff. You can hear an even darker, more slithering, atmosphere which I think points the way towards what Danzig was moving into with his next few industrial rock late-90s leathergoth records, while still retaining the bluesy Sabbathian style of his early-era backing band. It’s the last outing with the classic era lineup, and while III is often rightly praised as a peak for the band, I think IV is just as deserving, and offers a really interesting, transitionary sound. Lucifuge was the record that really got me into him, but I’d like to nominate IV for this topic. It’s a great loss if we never get any more records from him.Īs for Danzig I’ve been a fanboy since I was like 15 (which is over 15 years ago now, oh god.), so I will always support any mention. He’s got such a great voice, is an incredible songwriter, and excels at creating dark atmosphere with his music while simultaneously rocking the fuck out. He put out two fucking killer solo records in the 2006-2010 region, and not a peep since then. All I saw were cds on amazon for $20+.Īlso want to say how bummed I am that it seems like Dax has stepped away from music and won’t be returning. I searched for it a while back and couldn’t find any digital versions, not even any pirated mp3s on tiny music blogs, which is my usual go-to method for harder to find music. The Agents of Oblivion record is especially incredible, and the mourning atmosphere on that record would make it a good candidate for this thread too, but as with Acid Bath it’s really hard to find online. Honestly any of the various groups with Dax Riggs as a member deserve a listen. childish, of course.Acid Bath are so fucking killer, really love that particular blend of southern sludge metal and Sabbath-worship they cooked up. Looking back on the argument, Anne wrote: ‘Pfeffer looked very sullen, didn’t talk to me for two days and made a point of sitting at the table from 5 to 5.30 anyway. Eventually, Fritz gave in, but he did so reluctantly. Things got so heated that Anne asked her father to intervene. ‘Stay calm, this fellow isn’t worth worrying your head about!’ Anne was enraged and calm at the same time. He felt that Anne’s work was not important, unlike his study of Spanish, Dutch, and English. When Anne indicated that she would like to divide the time at the table more evenly, so that they could both work in peace, Fritz refused. Their main conflict had to do with the writing desk. The first signs of friction were soon to follow. At the same time, Fritz Pfeffer had a hard time dealing with Anne, a rebellious teenager. It was not easy for Anne to share her small room with a man as old as her father.
