This appears to be legit (unlike the Steele-perpetrated hoax of a few years ago) and has been confirmed by at least two other members of Type O Negative. There's also a memorial page up at the Schechter guitars site.

Saw TON years ago opening for Queensryche and they were a great band. And IIRC, Peter was playing an Alembic at that time. He will be missed.

It seems like early death of heart failure is getting a lot more common these days. Weird.

I got a call at 12:30 am today with the news. Very sad and I know that this touches many friends and fans as well as family. A very unique voice and musician who I will miss. If you ever get the opportunity, Susan has some cool Pete stories. The TON family has some of the nicest, most genuine people I've ever met.

"Do you believe in forever, I don't even believe in tommorow."

RIP Peter, thanx for the music!
