PETER STEELE TRIBUTE ALBUM ON THE WAY

Did you know that it’s been almost a year since Peter Steele died? Crazy, but true; the Type O frontman passed away on April 14th, 2010 at the age of 48.

Our own resident Peter expert Anso DF is planning something special for April 14th, but in the meantime we figured we’d let you know about a tribute album our friends at MetalUnderground.com are organizing. In collaboration with Dan Mitchell of Beneath The Woods Studio, MetalUnderground.com has teamed up with a dozen underground bands from across the globe to release an exclusive tribute album entitled All For None, None For All: A Tribute to Peter Steele featuring twelve cover songs from many stages of Peter’s career in both Type O Negative and Carnivore. The tracklisting:

1. Auvernia – “I Don’t Wanna Be Me”
2. Fairytale Abuse – “Black No. 1”
3. In.verno – “Everything Dies”
4. Dead Shape Figure – “Dead Again”
5. Revilement – “Sex and Violence”
6. Emancer – “Girlfriend’s Girlfriend”
7. A Band of Orcs – “Green Man”
8. Enthrope – “Wolf Moon”
9. Stabbingback – “Halloween in Heaven”
10. Dark Hound – “Life Is Killing Me”
11. Autumns Eyes – “Love You To Death”
12. Blind Greed – “Christian Woman”

All For None, None For All: A Tribute To Peter Steele will be available in digital format through Metalunderground.com for a small price, required to cover the mechanical licensing fees and transaction fees. Metalunderground.com content manager Ty Arthur commented, “Ideally, we wanted to give this tribute away for free and let it spread like wildfire, but when distributing cover songs there are licensing fees involved since the original compositions belong to the artist and/or label. This tribute is meant to honor Peter Steele and Type O Negative’s impact on his fans and the metal landscape. We do not intend to make a penny off of this release and any earnings we may have at the end of the day will be donated to charity.”

Stay tuned for a release date and further details.
