Rob Zombie--Hellbilly Deluxe (1998/Geffen)
Rating--8.0

Living Dead Girl--RealAudio
The first solo effort by the White Zombie frontman, and much along the same lines musically and thematically. Still the same horror-movie weirdness in places, and some punishing grooves and rhythms as well.
The driving distortion beat of "Superbeast" is a good starter, and lead single "Dragula" is solid. The creeping pace and stalking vocals stand out in "Living Dead Girl," while "Demonoid Phenomenon" is swift from start to finish.
A couple of simply nasty tracks-- "Meet the Creeper" and "The Ballad of Resurrection Joe and Rosa Whore"-- help make this an overall tasty treat.
