Goth metal icons, TYPE O NEGATIVE have announced a 20th Anniversary deluxe vinyl edition of their revered 6th studio album, Life Is Killing Me, their final recording for Roadrunner Records. The package will also feature a 3rd LP of bonus tracks (full tracklisting below) and a selection of rare, archival photos from that era of the legendary New York band. The release will be the first time the album has ever been available as a stand-alone vinyl edition, pressed on 140g mixed green & black vinyl and in a deluxe tri-fold package. Pre-order here.

TYPE O NEGATIVE formed in Brooklyn in 1989 by Peter Steele, Kenny Hickey, Josh Silver and Sal Abruscato, who was later replaced by drummer, Johnny Kelly. Affectionately known as the ‘Drab Four,’ Type O went platinum in the US with 1993’s landmark album Bloody Kisses and gained a rabid and committed fan base throughout the time of their seven studio albums, two ‘best-of’ compilations and concert DVDs.
