Type O Negative - Dead Again


For those of you who don't know, Peter Steele, aka Petrus T. Ratajczyk (January 4, 1962 – April 14, 2010) passed away a year ago today. I will never forget the first time I listened to his band Type O Negative.

My brother bought October Rust and listened to it from start to finish. I then took it from his room, put the album on repeat, and didn't stop listening to it. I sat in my room for hours on end that day, reading books, writing, and just zoning out, with that album playing nonstop. I don't think I can really remember another day that music meant so much to me coming out of a stereo in my room.

Since then I've followed every release, and gone back to past releases, Bloody Kisses is an album no one should miss out on, but I'm glad October Rust was my introduction, as it will forever hold a place in my heart reserved for things like love, pain, ecstasy and despair. 



I was 13 then, and already had too much on my mind, but it all went away that day for those hours of peace. I miss Type O and Peter for the peace they brought to my mind whenever I listen to their music. I'm glad I have so many albums to rely on.


For those of you that know, you know. For those of you that don't yet know, it's time to find out. Seek out all the Type O Negative albums. Devour them. Experience them the way I did, in your own way, and give thanks and sit for mourning. This world has lost so many musical talents, but I think none so understated and under-appreciated as Peter Steele. May you rest in peace, thank you for your soul in my headphones.


Lay your head down for the last time.

Itsa Me, Zombie_slag!

Hey folks!


So I may be headed for my very first Epic Fail at papercraft! I've been working on a Mario automata all weekend and just can't seem to get it right. I've got tons of pics and vids but I don't want to upload them until its finished, which should be by the Wednesday post.

I don't know how its going to turn out, but I'm doing my best to salvage what seems like an impossible situation I've gotten myself into. I don't know where I went wrong, or if this model is just really that complicated (doesn't seem to be the case) but either way I'm gunna see it through to the potentially and most likely bitter end hahaha.

So stay tuned to see how it goes!

It's called feeling, play with it!!

Hey folks!

I know this is mainly a papercraft forum, but as a musician I gotta say, you need to check this dude out. I know its been a while since his last album dropped, but if you like music, ANY music, just watch the videos then go to www.ronaldjenkees.com  and buy his albums. I swear if I had HALF of this dudes talent I'd be worldwide by now!!

Anyways, what brought this back to my attention is a video i ran across while watching Jenkee's material, which I've posted here. I'm no rap fan by any means, usually I'm a funk\metal classic rock dude, but when awesome beats meet flawless flow and tie together with melodies magnificent, well, that just transcends genre and becomes something I like to call the language of the soul. MUSIC.

 So if you have any taste whatsoever, watch the following 2 videos, one is a the original track by Ronald Jenkees, the second is a dude rapping over one of RJ's tracks. Then go to http://www.youtube.com/user/ronaldjenkees , SUBSCRIBE and tell him http://www.youtube.com/user/Zombieslag sent you there. You won't be sorry. Oh, and listen to everything else on RJ's channel. PEACE!

BOO! Made you look!

Hey folks!

Well I got that Boo model done but it wasn't as easy as it looked! Of course Vodka and Zero Carb Rockstar may have impeded my skills. Its a 3 piece model, the body and 2 arms, all printed on one sheet of paper. I would recommend regular 20# printer paper for this one as you will be doing a lot of bending instead of folding.

I had a great time making it so here's a vid (like the vivi one) of the process. Its short of course because the model is simple. Its set to the Luigi's Mansion theme from Mario Kart DS simply because I liked the song, and its what came up when I went to upload the Luigi's Mansion GCN game theme lol.

I took a 360 view vid as well so you can see his little tail and his arms better.


If you would like to do this model, simply head over HERE and get it, its free! Make sure to pay attention to the instructions for the arms, as they aren't as simple as they look if you try to do them without the instructions.
