Slow, Deep & Hard Remastered

Product Description ------------------- Slow, Deep and Hard, the band's debut record, was recorded in 1989 at Systems Two in Brooklyn. Limited by a $6,000 budget, the sessions were as bare-s as it gets. Upon release, four leather-clad smart-asses from Brooklyn were suddenly thrust into an international pissing match, accused of misogyny, bigotry, and outright Nazism. This debut record has sold 150,000 units and Type O Negative's combined U.S. sales have reached over 2.5 million. The band is still together and continues to record and tour regularly. Roadrunner Records is proud to present the newly remastered edition of Type O Negative's classic debut album, Slow, Deep & Hard. This reissue comes packaged in a jewel case, wrapped in an O-card featuring original album art. The CD features the entire album painstakingly remastered from start to finish. The expanded booklet contains all the original content, plus a behind-the-scenes viewpoint of not only the making of the record, but the international chaos that followed its release, as told by Josh Silver and Kenny Hickey. Review ------ An Impressive Debut. This is a masterwork that truly shows the anger and technicality that came from Carnivore, mixed with the angst and atmosphere that evolved into what we now know and love as Type O Negative --Encyclopaedia Metallum .com In this their debut release, Type O Negative's melodramatic goth rock style encompasses long songs built on simple riffs, theatrical shouting vocals , churchy-sounding organ and vocal-harmony passages, and odd mechanical noise. Singer Peter Steele shows an obnoxious sense of humor, but directs it at himself and the band as much as everyone else he doesn't like. --All Music Guide
