type o negative - october rust the demos

i really love type o negative and therefore i am willed to buy obscure stuff of them rather than from most other bands. this release is supposed to be the unofficial vinyl pressing of a self-recorded tape done by peter steele for his own amusement. he made a handful of copies and gave them to friends such as band member josh silver. years after steele's passing he sold a few memorabilia on ebay, also said tape.
as far as i understand the buyer must have been the one who digitalised and posted it on youtube. the rest is bootleg modus operandi. so far the urband legend. i don't know whether it's true or not but it's definitely fun to listen to these odd bits and ends, despite the rather bad sound quality. read somewhere that 250 copies of this green with black splatter vinyl were pressed.
