Following the crossover success of their Bloody Kisses, October Rust found Type O leaning even further into the romantically-brooding side of their gothic-metal sound. The 1996 effort is full of heavy ballads driven by purple waves of distortion and the arousing vocal performances of baritone belter-cum-bassist Peter Steele. October Rust remains a senses-flooding smorgasbord of lustful bangers (Be My Druidess), lipstick-and-wine-stained bedroom professions (Love You to Death) and hot-and-bothered foreplay (Wolf Moon). An erotically-charged masterpiece now ready to be spun on green-and-black marble vinyl.
