Rob Zombie

Rob Zombie (born Robert Bartleh Cummings; January 12, 1965) is an American musician, singer, songwriter, record producer, filmmaker, and voice actor. His music and lyrics are notable for their horror and sci-fi themes, and his live shows have been praised for their elaborate shock rock theatricality. He has sold an estimated 15 million albums worldwide.
Zombie initially rose to fame as a founding member and the frontman of heavy metal band White Zombie, with whom he released four albums. His first solo effort, the 1996 song "Hands of Death (Burn Baby Burn)", was written and performed with Alice Cooper and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. His debut solo studio album, Hellbilly Deluxe, was released in 1998; White Zombie disbanded a month later. Hellbilly Deluxe sold over 3 million copies worldwide and spawned three singles. Zombie directed the horror film House of 1000 Corpses in 2000, though the controversial project was not released until 2003. His second studio album, The Sinister Urge, was released in 2001 and became his second platinum album in the U.S.
Zombie directed the House of 1000 Corpses sequel The Devil's Rejects (2005), which received a more positive reception than its predecessor. His third studio album, Educated Horses was released in 2006 and marked a departure from his earlier style. It became his third album to enter the top 10 of the Billboard 200, but saw a decrease in sales compared to his previous releases. Deciding to focus on his filmmaking career, he directed Halloween (2007), a remake of the classic 1978 horror film. The film became his highest-grossing to date, though was generally received negatively by critics. He later directed Halloween II (2009), which failed to match the success of its predecessor. He released the animated film The Haunted World of El Superbeasto that same year. He returned to music with the release of his fourth studio album, Hellbilly Deluxe 2 (2010), which peaked at no. 8 in the U.S.
In 2012, Zombie released the remix album Mondo Sex Head. In 2013, he directed the horror film The Lords of Salem and released his fifth album Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor. In 2016, he directed the horror film 31 and released his sixth album The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser. In 2021, he released his seventh studio album The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse Conspiracy.
