ROB ZOMBIE: 'What?' Video In The Works

February 11, 2010

Rob Zombie recently shot a video for the track "What?" from his fourth solo album, "Hellbilly Deluxe 2". The clip is expected to make its online debut in the coming weeks.

"Hellbilly Deluxe 2" debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard album chart on Wednesday (February 10),selling 49,000 copies in its first week of release. That total is less than 50 percent of the number of copies that his previous effort, "Educated Horses", sold in its first week back in April 2006, when it moved 107,000 copies to land at No. 5 on the chart.

Zombie was originally supposed to issue the album last November through his longtime label, Geffen Records, but delayed its arrival to February 2 after abruptly leaving to sign with the Roadrunner label. He admitted to The Pulse of Radio that he was a little unsure at first whether that was the right thing to do. "Well, I mean, it was weird because at first you think like, well, you know, you're on Geffen, do you want to make the switch, should you just change next time on the next record, you know, just ride out what you started," he said. "I struggled with it but I thought, you know, my gut is telling me this is the thing to do because I have a feeling if I put it out in November, the label's not gonna support it, and by December the record will be dead. And I just said, you know, screw it. Whatever the repercussions, let's just do it."

Zombie and KORN will co-headline this summer's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival tour, scheduled to kick off on July 10 in San Bernardino, California.

Zombie will also appear at the fourth annual Rock On The Range festival alongside GODSMACK and dozens of others on May 22 and May 23 at Columbus Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.

His fourth feature as a director, "Halloween II", arrived in theatres last August, with a director's cut issued on DVD and Blu-ray in December. He also recently directed an episode of the CBS-TV series "CSI: Miami" that will air March 1.
