Did Type O Negative use drum machines?

Taken from the 'Dead Again' wikipedia page:

Dead Again is the seventh and final studio album by Type O Negative, released before the death of frontman Peter Steele. It was released through SPV/Steamhammer. The band uses studio drums instead of a drum machine for the first time since their third album, Bloody Kisses. Thus, it remains the only Type O Negative studio album with Johnny Kelly's actual playing, as he was only "credited" as the drummer on the three albums prior to Dead Again.[1]

from the link reference from [1] an interview with Peter Steele:

“This album was done quite differently from the past two or three,” he said. “The last album we’d done with live drums was [1993’s]Bloody Kisses. Everything after that was a drum machine. I’ve always felt that that sounded a little — even though most people didn’t realize it was programmed drums — but just to me, it sounded synthetic. I’d have to write all the songs and then come down to the band, rehearse them, and the drums would be programmed.

Kind of sick of this album I've been playing it so much. It's been rocking my workouts.

I played that album once... Got about half way through. I wasnt appalled or anything but I couldn't finish it. I should try again as background noise in my car or at work I think.

I love how this album starts with the seven and a half minute instrumental fuck you named I Hate Lucy then crawls like a dying animal dragging its entrails behind it across the fucking highway.
 
Not exactly sure if I posted this already but this rules so much. I've honestly have had a hard time finding new black metal, but happy to come across this. Awesome epic and melodic black metal done well
