That was one of the best videos in my opinion! Besides the forever dark Marian. 8)

are you sure you aren't thinking of the "live in the studio" footage shot for bbc's "the old grey whistle test" show?

they shot versions of marian & falaa shortly after the "wake" live video was filmed... with gary marx back on guitar for the filming :?:

There is nothing typical about Petrus Steele, I must say! It is a quote from God is Dead a Carnivore song.
"Jesus I beg of thee.

birth is a sin,
and the punishment is death

@ Dark Magic - Type O Negative are great! - I have got all their cd's - never heard any "Carnivore" tracks - had much trouble tracking them down.

Well not anymore, Roadrunner Records rereleased both albums: Carnivore and Retallation I believe it was in 2000. Perhaps you should check it out. By the way the rereleased albums include demos of like 5 songs on both albums its really worth it! :D
