"..........When Edi/783 Punx contacted us to seed the idea to make a HELLBASTARD TYPE O NEGATIVE cover song for a T.O.N TRIBUTE record I was very very excited,.... we originally chose "Kill all the white people" but some other band beat us to it,... (the bastards) So, the obvious next choice was "We hate everyone",....

Work began in Bristol, UK almost immediately. Having been a huge tape trading freak in the late 70’s & 80’s I discovered mr steele’s’ Music & became an instant fan of pre-Type O Negative bands : FALLOUT and CARNIVORE and of course the subsequent ensemble that would become Type o negative, the honour and joy to set about recording one of their works was a truly humbling experience, made all the better by the knowledgeable and genius of our own guitar player Mr. Danny guy. Back in 2009 Mr Guy recorded and produced the Hellbastard "Eco-War" cd (Selfmadegod Recs) & has only became more & more focused & excellent in the recording field.

Peter Steele formed his first band in the very same year I formed my own first band, ... (1979) & although basic and absolutely chaotic, this set us on the subsequent path we are on today. And, Like Mr, Steele i also wrote an ode to a beloved cat of mine that died in January 2014.

The stipulations for all bands on this project was to include blast-beats & keep the track to a bare minimum of 3.00" - which we didn't do, we had 4.50" so we had to trawl through and chop and chop and chop,.... we also included the blast-beat style which is becoming more frequent in the live set due to drummer Jon Rushforth and his love of the musical genre of "grind-core"

Unfortunately with TYPE O NEGATIVE many seem to misunderstand and not spot the ludicrously evident sarcasm and self-deprecating themes throughout Steele's lyrics. The honesty that only comes with the art of showing your heart.

To me, the album "Bloody Kisses" was a sheer work of genius, from beginning to end. It had everything : Riffs, Heaviness, excellent lyrics, brilliant production, and of course, that uniqueness that only a band like Type - o could muster. The '4 dicks' from Brooklyn entered peoples' lives & brought hours and hours of listening pleasure to all that spent serious listening time on their art.

I myself am not a 'singer' as such, despite years of making albums and being involved in endless studio time, so it was with much annoyance that when i attempted the verse parts on this track I could not replicate that 'gothic tone' that Steele produced so well,... it was then suggested that i try the verses in my own oddball (apparently) unique style that every HELLBASTARD record has,... and it worked. I am glad to say.

As for Type o Negative,....They rarely make 'em like this anymore.

R.I.P Peter Steele (1962-2010) & Type o Negative.

Hellbastard (Official UK) UK

Formed in 1985 in the North East of England in the midst of Thatcherism, Hellbastard set out to play what they wanted to listen to themselves.... too "metal" for the punks and too "punk" for the metallers - official hiatus began 1991, oficially re-formed in 2008 Hellbastard still bring a relevant lyric and sound to counter act against bland mediocre sub-standard radio friendly generic safety-rock. ... more
