October Rust was well received by critics. Val Ium – backing vocals (on "In Praise of Bacchus").Johnny Kelly – drums, percussion (programmed drums).Josh Silver – backing vocals, keyboards, synthesizer, sound effects, programming.Kenny Hickey – backing vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar.Peter Steele – lead vocals, bass guitar."Wolf Moon (Including Zoanthropic Paranoia)"Ĭredits Type O Negative "The Glorious Liberation of the People's Technocratic Republic of Vinnland by the Combined Forces of the United Territories of Europa" Another production technique employed on the album is the use of very abrupt endings and segues to a few of the songs, heard on the tracks "Green Man", "Red Water", and "Haunted".Īll tracks are written by Peter Steele, except where noted. Tracks 2 and 15 are humorous untitled spoken word intros and outros to the album, respectively, with the band downplaying the recording of the album. It is the first of the band's albums with a "joke intro" in this case, "Bad Ground", which is 38 seconds of low-level buzzing, meant to sound as if one or more audio leads is incorrectly plugged into the input jacks of an amplifier. It also features a very heavy cover of Neil Young's " Cinnamon Girl". October Rust has more ballads and less of the doom metal sound of previous or subsequent albums. This is the first album with Johnny Kelly credited as the band's drummer, although programmed drums are used on the album. October Rust is the fourth studio album by Type O Negative.
