Type O Negative (TON) was an American gothic/rock metal band formed in Brooklyn, New York City in 1989 which split up after the death of its iconic singer, Peter Steele in 2010. I heard my first TON-Song at a party in my teenager-years and instantly fell in love with them - altough I was quite into Rap at this time (yeah, youthful follies). They are one of my favorite bands today, so I still listen to their unique music nearly every day. 

My Top Five:

5: Maybe their greatest (but not their best) hit was "Black No 1" (from their album "Bloody Kisses", 1993)

3: Their greatest cover: Paranoid (from their album "The Origin of the Feces", 1992)

2: Simply perfect: "Love You to Death" (from their album "October Rust", 1996)

1: I know its awkward: I listened to this so much but it never got boring (in fact I had a cassette - good old times - with just this song - and I would listen to this over and over)
