The LP features the band's first recordings with drummer Alex Bent, who joined TRIVIUM in 2016. TRIVIUM's latest album, "The Sin And The Sentence", was released in October 2017 via Roadrunner. So they were just, like, 'Hey, we should do this split thing for the 15-year anniversary of the song.' And we had the song, so they sent it to the TYPE O guys, and they gave the blessing they liked the cover." TRIVIUM guitarist Corey Beaulieu told the 90.3 WMSC radio show "The Metal Teddy Bear Experience": "We did the TYPE O NEGATIVE cover just for fun, to have a bonus track or just have something useful for whatever, and we just had that kind of hanging out, and then Roadrunner decided to… It was 15 years since that song came out.

The track was initially made available for last year's Black Friday "Record Store Day" on a limited-edition seven-inch vinyl alongside TYPE O NEGATIVE's original version.

The music video is about how the music company wants them to be something that they're not, a money making sellout. Hell, like his idol (and mine) Kurt Cobain of Nirvana who felt the need to isolate the band from the masses of fans, he feels that if fewer people listen to him then he's not out anything. He's saying that he's not doing it for the popularity. He's speaking out against the stereotype of rock bands struggling to maintain popularity and then only being heard of every now and again. He also mentioned that they don't have true fans that stick with them over time (between albums, sounds, after one hit, etc.) and they forget about the band, and once you lose a following it's hard to get them back, which is why they've lost popularity over the years. He recieved pressure from the label to create more songs with a mainstream style after the commercial success of this song and album. On top of that, when he was interviewed by one of the members of Anthrax he mentioned how his music was being exploited by the recording label (Roadrunner?) to make money.

The other, the side that is most often commericalized, put on the radio, and sold to the masses for profit, the side with the big record labels, airplay, touring and often "selling out" side of music.īecause they are always (ever) caught between the two a step towards one is a step away from the other, hence the throwing the stones at his home. One, you have the people who like the (realitively speaking) unpopular style of music that they do, the slow, dragging, dark music that Type O Negative is most often associated with.
There are two sides (each represented by a glass house) to what's going on with the band when it comes to audiences.
