Type O Negative's The Origin of the Feces is a 1992 studio album that was released as a "live" album with fake crowd noises and banter. The album is a satirical take on the band's often gloomy music and their image as a "doom metal" band.
The album cover of the original release was a close-up photograph of an anus, which was rumored to belong to Type O Negative frontman Peter Steele. This cover was heavily censored and even banned in some countries. Later releases of the album have a different cover, a black and green portrait of the 1493 painting "The Dance of Death".
The album was a commercial success, reaching number 19 on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States. It was also certified Gold by the RIAA in 1994.
The Origin of the Feces is a cult classic among Type O Negative fans. It is a humorous and well-crafted album that is sure to appeal to fans of dark humor and heavy metal music.
