NewsBLITZ: ROB ZOMBIE RETURNS TO MUSIC!

Rob Zombie is returning to his musical roots—and the concert stage—after taking some time off to write and direct the films Halloween and Halloween II!


Zombie's first headlining tour since 2007—The Hellbilly Deluxe 2 Tour—kicks off Oct. 29 in Phoenix with the Nekromantix and Captain Clegg & the Night Creatures (who were in Halloween II) serving as opening acts.

On tour, Rob will be playing fan favorites as well as new tracks from his upcoming Geffen Records release Hellbilly Deluxe 2—Noble Jackals, Penny Dreadfuls and the Systematic Dehumanization of Cool. This CD serves as a companion to 1998's original Hellbilly Deluxe disc, which was Zombie's first solo venture after the demise of White Zombie. Rob's backup group is comprised of his longtime bandmates John 5 (guitar), Piggy D (bass) and Tommy Clufetos (drums).

"I am bouncing off the walls like a mental patient," says Zombie "That tells me it's time to take it to the stage and let the demons loose."
