About
Least Worst Of is a compilation album from Type O Negative featuring some previously released material alongside a few new tracks and remixes. There are two versions of this album: edited and unedited (with a parental advisory label/logo). The picture on the album cover is of the Parachute jump at Coney Island, in Brooklyn, New York. Track listing Unedited version "The Misinterpretation of Silence and Its Disastrous Consequences (Wombs and Tombs Mix)" – 0:39 "Everyone I Love Is Dead" – 4:39 "Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare-All)" – 4:34 "It's Never Enough" – 8:15 "Love You To Death" – 4:47 "Black Sabbath (From the Satanic Perspective)" – 7:44 "Christian Woman" – 4:25 "12 Black Rainbows" – 5:10 "My Girlfriend's Girlfriend (Cheese Organ Mix)" – 3:43 "Hey Pete (Pete's Ego Trip Version)" – 5:19 "Everything Dies" – 4:33 "Cinnamon Girl (Depressed Mode Mix)" – 3:50 "Unsuccessfully Coping With The Natural Beauty of Infidelity" – 12:29 "Stay Out of My Dreams" – 8:15 Edited version "The Misinterpretation Of Silence And Its Disastrous Consequences (Wombs And Tombs mix)" – 0:39 "Everyone I Love Is Dead" – 4:39 "Black No.1" – 4:35 "Love You To Death" – 4:47 "Black Sabbath (From The Satanic Perspective)" – 7:44 "Christian Woman" – 4:25 "12 Black Rainbows" – 5:10 "My Girlfriend's Girlfriend (Cheese Organ mix)" – 3:43 "Hey Pete (Pete's Ego Trip Version)" – 5:19 "Everything Dies" – 4:33 "Cinnamon Girl (Depressed Mode mix)" – 3:52 "Gravitational Constant (G=6.67 x 10 cm3 gm1 sec2)" – 9:04 "Stay Out Of My Dreams" – 8:15 Notes Consistent with many of the band's previous 'joke tracks', the first track "The Misinterpretation Of Silence And Its Disastrous Consequences (Wombs And Tombs mix)", much like the original is completely silent. The only "remix" that occurs here is simply that the track is shorter; 0:39 of silence instead of the original's 1:04. Given the title of the album, it is also an example of their self-deprecating humor style, with the logic that silence can actually be considered some of their best work.
