Peter Steele

Obituary

Peter Steele, vocalist and bassist for the platinum selling band Type O Negative, has died at 48.

He died of apparent heart failure, though the official cause of death has yet to be determined pending autopsy results.

The Brooklyn-based band released seven studio albums. Their breakout success was 1993's platinum-selling Bloody Kisses, featuring "Black No.1 (Little Miss Scare-All)" and the band's cover of Seals And Crofts' "Summer Breeze." Though they scored few subsequent commercial successes in the U.S., the band toured extensively and enjoyed a large European fan base.

The funeral services will be private and memorial services will be announced at a future date.

Green Man,thank you for everything.you are missed

Rest in peace green man

I never met you but I still have this spiritual connection with you. I miss you and I hope you're doing okay. You will forever be in my heart.

You were my first love, Peter. Not one day goes by that I don't listen to your beautiful voice or think about you. 15 years without you, Green Man.

Love you to death saved my marriage. Am I good enough. 4 magical words that brought fourth a long emotional conversation. God bless you Peter. Thank you for blessing the world with your words, voice and talent even though you didn't want to nor did you think you were good enough

You was, and forever will be my idol.

Peter was kind enough to stop and take a picture with me before the show, even though he was rushing to go get a burger. I went to every show that came through Dallas, Tx. This was taken in 1999 in Deep Ellum. I will always cherish these memories

Forever... in the everlasting embrace of our Jesus

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
