TYPE O NEGATIVE PREORDER!

Type O Negative's head-turning, raw debut, Slow, Deep and Hard, was originally released in 1991 and is credited with launching the black-humored, doomy metal band's career. Type O eventually went on to become the first Gold-certified band on Roadrunner. The reissue is re-mastered, which adds an element of crispness to this classic release's sound. It also includes a bonus track called "Hey Pete." It will also feature new liner notes, redesigned artwork and extra photos. It's a "must have" for fans of Brooklyn's finest.

Track Listing:

1. unsuccessfully coping with the natural beauty of infidelity (12:39)
2. der untermensch (8:54)
3. xero tolerance (7:45)
4. prelude to agony (12:14)
5. glass walls of limbo (dance mix) (6:14)
6. the misinterpretation of silence and its disastrous consequences (1:04)

NEW SITE CHANGES!

You may have noticed that over the past few months quiet changes have been made to the site. First we gave you new artist pages. Check out your favorite and you'll find widgets, videos, music, and much more. Plus they look great.

A few weeks back we also updated our Artists page. You'll see highlighted artists up top in blue. These change as artists are updated with news, video, and music. This is a great page to make your first port-of-call after the news section!

Today we've relaunched three other pages. Music and Video are all new. You can now embed all of our music and video posted to the site in your blog, web site, or MySpace/Facebook profiles. At the right of these pages you'll see charts driven by what YOU do on our site. You can also leave comments at all songs and videos, rate them, and favorite them in our new profile system (more on that in a sec).

The Releases page has gotten a huge makeover. Every album now has its own home page where you can see the available tracks, rate it, leave a review, or comment on others' reviews. Snazzy huh?

Finally, we just launched our new profile pages. If you're a subscriber to our email newsletters, you can log in, add your own picture, keep track of the latest updates on our site (and partner sites), follow your favorite videos and music, and tell us what bands you want to hear about.

Of course, many of these new features require that you be a member of the site to use them, so please join today!

We are, of course, in a beta phase and need your help to make the site work the best for YOU. If you see any problems or want to suggest changes to the new features, please send an email to webmaster@roadrunnerrecords.com with "NEW SITE REPORT" in the subject line. If you receive an error, please be as detailed as possible, including what page you were on, what browser you are using, and copy any error message you receive into the body of the email.

Please feel free to leave comments here below!

Cheers!

GHOSTS, DRUMMERS, AND THE FIRST SLIPKNOT ALBUM

Some guy wrote in to our website email account the other day promoting his book about the paranormal and I almost lost it. No, actually I did lose it. Check out my response to him and more in the new Mail Bag. I also help an out-of-work guitarist find a job.

Another person was quite worried that perhaps Roadrunner founder Cees Wessels was no more, but Amy set that guy straight in Ask Amy. Of course there are the usual raft of proposals (sexual, romantic, and both), dumb questions, and smart questions as well.

New Slipknot artwork and a bunch of other band photos and images have been uploaded to the Fan Art section.

Mike Patton for President! Okay, Mike Patton's not on the list, but put forth your Roadrunner candidate for president in this week's poll.

The Forum this week asks: What's your favorite metal site?

And finally don't forget that we're running Tyler Connolly from Theory of a Deadman's advice column, Tell Tyler, in our Ask the Artist section. Read about bad girlfriends now.
