Thought I would start up a thread for Rob Zombie ( did a search and didn't find one). I really love the first 2 albums in Hellbilly Deluxe 1 and 2.
Just to expand on my thoughts of the band now, I still find Educated Horses to be a little bit too melodic and soft for my liking. The desire to really explore more extreme music was what got me into Rob Zombie, plus I had heard him a lot as a kid too which I remember some of his best stuff.
Discography of his solo band.

Some favourite songs.
didn't help but giggle when I first listen to Rob Zombie as his love for Horror Movies...
The new album is god awful.
It sounded like mostly filler and things you'd hear on the radio. I gave it like two listens and couldn't get into it at all.
As an obsessive horror fan myself, that's the main thing I love about Rob!
I respect your opinion, but I think you're being a bit harsh! Also, I'm not sure what radio you listen to, but I sure can't think of any that would play Rob Zombie.
I really like the new album. My only real problem with it is that it is too short. Sure, it's not his best album, in fact, I'd probably rank it second last if I had to list my favourite Rob Zombie albums, but it's still a fun solid record. I don't think you can go wrong with Rob Zombie, but that's just my opinion of course.
