Petrus Thomas Ratajczyk (January 4, 1962 – April 14, 2010), known professionally as
Peter Steele, was an American musician, singer, and songwriter. He was best known as the lead vocalist, bassist and composer of the
gothic metal band
Type O Negative. Before forming Type O Negative, Steele had created the
metal group
Fallout and the
thrash band
Carnivore.
As the frontman for Type O Negative, Steele was known for his
vampiric appearance, 6 ft 8 in (2.03 m) stature, rich
bass vocals, and a dark, often
self-deprecating sense of humor. His lyrics have been described as "often intensely personal, dealing with subjects including love, loss and addiction." Steele credited
Black Sabbath and
the Beatles as his key musical influences.
