![]() ![]() ![]() However, "nice" should never be a word that can describe a Rob Zombie record. ![]() JOHN 5 does his best to disguise lifeless riffs with some stylish playing and a killer tone, resulting in some nice mainstream metal. Hellbillies rejoice, the Master of monster mayhem, Rob Zombie, is returning with exactly what youve been waiting for, HELLBILLY DELUXE 2 The follow up to the 1998 triple platinum smash HELLBILLY DELUXE will be the latest masterpiece from Zombie which is set to hit stores November 17th. "Sick Bubblegum" is catchier than any song with a "Rock, motherfucker" rejoinder deserves to be, and "What?" may be the best GIBBY HAYNES impression since 1996, right down to lyrics that sound made up on the spot. Even when he isn't sounding awkwardly experimental, songs like "Mars Needs Women" and "Burn" are worthy of Rob's mediocre kid brother's band, but not the guy who gave us Astro-Creep 2000. "Werewolf Women of the SS" is an undeserving musical counterpart to Rob's inspiring Grindhouse trailer. His latest album is a sequel to Hellbilly Deluxe, the record that launched a thousand action movie soundtracks, and while Hellbilly 2 a few songs that will probably sound great live, nothing. The artsy detours and sound clips on "Jesus Frankenstein" and particularly the interminable "The Man Who Laughs" distract from otherwise fine songs. He's maintained the bells and whistles that made WHITE ZOMBIE stand out, but he no longer has the hooks to carry them. Sheri Moon Zombie sounds like an artist who should be on Roadrunner pitching himself to The End Records. ![]()
