ROB ZOMBIE - HELLBILLY DELUXE 2 (Gatefold 180-Gram Black Vinyl) [Import]

Gatefold 180-gram black vinyl. Hellbilly Deluxe 2: Noble Jackals, Penny Dreadfuls and the Systematic Dehumanization of Cool is the fourth solo studio album by former White Zombie frontman Rob Zombie. The album is a sequel to his debut album Hellbilly Deluxe and was released on February 2, 2010. This is the first album with bassist Piggy D and the last with drummer Tommy Clufetos. Hellbilly Deluxe 2 is also the first release where Rob Zombie worked with his full touring band. Previous albums were written and recorded by Rob Zombie himself and a rotating set of musicians. The lead single "What?" debuted on radio stations on October 6. Rob Zombie enlisted the help of artists Dan Brereton (creator of Nocturnals), Alex Horley (of Image Comics and DC Comics) and David Hartman (storyboard artist) to create the album artwork. British dark/horror/science fiction/steampunk artist Sam Shearon aka 'Mister Sam Shearon' (artwork for Ministry, Slayer, Clive Barker, and tour merchandise for Iron Maiden) also contributed to the artwork of Hellbilly Deluxe 2.

RMFN Notes:

"It was pretty bold of Zombie to name this as the sequel to the iconic Hellbilly Deluxe, but honestly it paid off. This is the album that really kicked off the resurrection of Zombie's solo career. I personally LOVED this album as soon as it came out: Sick Bubblegum, What?, Mars Needs Women, Burn (remember playing that on Guitar Hero?!), and Cease To Exist are all bangers. Honorable mention to guitarist John 5, he is just too good. This is one of Zombie's best efforts." - Chris
