This is a kickass record and probably their most digestible overall. It's pretty accessible surprisingly and probably their most "song" driven album. I like it

''I went from dope to pope'' - Steele on his return to Catholicism shortly before his death.

I think that's the common path of a catholic. You become an agnostic FOR YEARS, until in a later period of your life you seek redemption from Christ. I think I started to walk through that road a few years ago.

As far as Type O Negative goes, 'World Coming Down' will always be their pinnacle and pretty much nothing is going to top it. I guess it makes sense that after that monolith to all the terrible things in Peter Steele's life that they would make a relatively happy album in the form of 'Life Is Killing Me', which I assume is designed to retrieve all the brainless goth girls who got scared away by songs with messages and long words and things. So Type O Negative did the natural thing: create a whole album of 'Black No. 1's to please the crowd. It sucks that they made that choice, but fortunately they're a band who're talented enough on the songwriting front to make solid, catchy music that isn't entirely irrelevant even in its most shallow moments.

"Life Is Killing Me" is a dark and grim but fun record from the Drab Four, with Peter Steele's trademark sense of humor injected into it. Although the material can be gloomy and depressing, the songs feature many poppy sing-along hooks that are sure to put one in a great mood. Just listen to the wolf-like crooning chorus on "I Like Goils."

What I like most about this album, and Type O Negative as a band, is their ability to utilize the "soft-loud dynamic" so proficiently. One minute the mood is dreary, and only a few moments later, you're banging your head into oblivion. Type O Negative isn't afraid to get experimental either, for example, the bridge section of "How Could She?" that leads into the gooey and thrashy center. Their shoegaze influences are especially evident in the previously mentioned track and sprinkled throughout many others on the record.

The title track, one of the album's standouts, combines all these elements perfectly. "(We Were) Electrocute" could easily be a break-up song off of a The Cure record (Type O Negative is essentially a heavy metal version of The Cure). Listen to the piano on "Anesthesia" and tell me that wouldn't be on Disintegration!
