Slow, Deep and Hard is Type O Negative's first album, released in 1991 on Roadrunner Records.
The album, originally titled None More Negative and released in 1990 under the group's former name Repulsion, launched the band's career. The album has a rawness that was prominent in Peter Steele's previous band, Carnivore, but it incorporates elements that became standard for Type O Negative, merging styles including doom metal, gothic rock, new wave and industrial music. Slow, Deep and Hard is a semi-autobiographical album with heavy amounts of black humor, based on a relationship in which the vocalist/bass guitarist Peter Steele was involved. In keeping with the band's notable humor, the cover of Slow, Deep and Hard is of a blurred out picture of sexual penetration.
Roadrunner Records released a remastered version of Slow, Deep and Hard on March 24, 2009.
All lyrics and music by Peter Steele, unless noted.
