According to Rolling Stone magazine Peter Steele died of heart failure on 10th April 2010, aged 48. Trent Reznor is quoted as saying, "I'm smiling recalling a funny story involving Pete, a microphone, an all-girl lipstick-******* band and a can of tuna. Ahh, the good old days..." What's a lisptick-******* band? He famously posed for Playgirl magazine and became a gay icon, which irritated him. I know him because he contributes vocals and bass to Just Say No to Love on Tony Iommi's self-titled album, but it's not the best track.
