Rob Zombie Interview

SpookyDan of Bloody-Disgusting.com conducted an interview with Rob Zombie about his new track "War Zone", which is now available on iTunes and Lionsgate's soundtrack for "Punisher: War Zone". During the interview, Zombie also talked a bit about the new WHITE ZOMBIE box set, his forthcoming solo album and the status of his animated feature project, "The Haunted World Of El Superbeasto". A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.

On the new song "War Zone":

"It came about like most movie songs do, you get a call asking to do a song for a film. Usually there is not a lot of time, which is why you usually submit a remix or an old song. But in this case I was already in the recording studio, and there was enough time. I haven't seen the movie yet, they gave me the script, so I knew the vibe of the movie and I tried to incorporate that into the song. I was happy to have that come up because what it really did was give us a nice kick in the ass, to HAVE TO finish a song. We had been recording for a while, but we really had not finished any songs yet. That really became the domino effect to finish all of the songs."

On the WHITE ZOMBIE box set "Let Sleeping Corpses Lie":

"I didn't want anyone to think that it was the beginning of something, but rather the end of something. Putting the box set together really made me appreciate what I am doing now even more. It was time to get the box set when I found a window of time available, I just figured if not now, when? CDs probably wont even exist for much longer. What good is a box set without the box? We were always a band that was slightly out of time and out of step, so it has aged pretty well. I think we did a lot of good stuff in the beginning, very groundbreaking, but you know it just became this painful situation most of the time as it went on. I haven't spoken to any of the WHITE ZOMBIE band members since our last show."

On the upcoming ROB ZOMBIE album:

"We will probably be finished with the new CD by the end of the year. The unique thing about this record is that this is the first time since WHITE ZOMBIE that I actually recorded with the band. In the sense that these are the guys I tour with and that I hang out with were a band and we recorded as a band. It's got a much more solid vibe, more intricate and interesting record just due to the fact that there are always four people in the room at all times, contributing and working. For me it's great, because my solo records have always been a bit disjointed due to the changing roster of musicians. Great things come out of situations where you feel a great vibe, and that is what's going on here. This is the first full thing with us together."
