An auteur filmmaker and music artist with shrewd insight and creative vision, Rob Zombie challenges audiences as he stretches the boundaries of film, music and publishing.
After assaulting audiences worldwide with the violent high-octane road classic The Devil's Rejects, Zombie's brutal follow-up to his critically acclaimed directorial debut, House of 1000 Corpses, Zombie now returns to his first love, music. Hitting stores this March is the album Educated Horses, Zombie's first album of all new material in almost five years. Zombie explains, "After working almost non-stop for two years on The Devil's Rejects, I needed a break. So I gathered together the finest band I've ever worked with and headed back into the studio."
From Halloween to Christmas, Zombie, along with longtime Producer Scott Humphrey, locked himself away in the same studio that has birthed the last two Zombie efforts The Sinister Urge and Hellbilly Deluxe. Three months later Zombie emerged with his most sonically diverse album to date. "I really wanted to expand things more than ever," Zombie relates. "From the full out metal attack of songs like 'Let It All Bleed Out' to the haunting acoustic number 'Death Of It All' I think I succeeded."
And succeed he has. Zombie is the longest active artist on Geffen Records, having been with the label for over 15 years. Additionally, Rob has released the most Gold and Platinum discs with Geffen records (seven in total) than any other artist on the label.
Rob Zombie really knows how to put on a show, so much energy, non stop, performed his hits. He was exactly what I expected and I wasn't disappointed. I would definitely go see him again!Setlist for the show at the Germania Insurance Amphitheater
They all did great! I highly recommend the tour! If you like hard rock/metal you will not be disappointed!
I loved the show. And it truly was a theatrical extravaganza! The video screen graphics and images were almost as exciting as Rob’s performance. Which makes sense since he is also movie maker. And I don’t know who his stylist is but I would kill for his pants! This was my first introduction to Mudvayne. I love his versatility’s but cut it with the rants. We want to hear music not how metal heads are a family and we should keep on rockin’. We know that already. And nobody gets us down!
Rob Zombie killed yet another show last night. Every time I see his show it is a that my voice will be gone. What make his concerts even better for me is taking my son to his shows. I think he was hooked the from the start of his very first zombie concert. Rob Zombie has to be on of the great live concert performers of all time. If you haven't had a chance to see him perform treat yourself to a great show.
