ROB ZOMBIE

On Aug. 25, 1998, White Zombie founder and mastermind will remove the shroud from what Alternative Press deemed "one of the most anticipated records of 1998" (January 1998). Entitled Hellbilly Deluxe (Geffen Records), the disc promises to stretch the mad world of Zombie into crazed new directions.

Hellbilly Deluxe was produced by Scott Humphrey (who's worked with Metallica and Motley CrŸe) and Rob Zombie. It features contributions from Tommy Lee, John Tempesta (White Zombie), Danny Lohner and Charlie Clouser from Nine Inch Nails. "Dragula" will be the first track released to radio, an ode to Grampa Munster's famed Dragster from the 60's TV classic, The Munsters.

Zombie is the chief architect of White Zombie's anvil-heavy, groove-engorged sound. Zombie's bizarre sensibility resulted in multiplatinum success for the band, first in 1992 with their major label debut, La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Vol. One and also in 1995 with the follow up Astro-Creep: 2000. In 1996 a ground breaking album of Astro-Creep remixes entitled-Super Sexy Swingin' Sounds quickly went gold.

A platinum seller, La Sexorcisto entered Billboard's Top 40 and earned Zombie a Grammy nomination. The double-platinum Astro Creep spawned the hit "More Human Than Human," and stayed on Billboard's top 200 for 89 weeks.

Despite his always-demonic frenzy of activity, Zombie will hit the road as part of the Family Values tour. Along for the ride are Korn, Limp Bizkit, Ice Cube and Orgy. Willing souls will have an opportunity to experience the full-spectrum of Zombie destruction in a live - or at least undead - setting.
