A brilliant start to a VERY sad ending.
I was worried when Zombie dissolved White Zombie.
Those worries were swept away as I heard the first track.
A brilliant album and easily the best of the three.
Not really any weak tracks. Not the usual Satan nonsense.
More like Scooby Doo scary.
Fun, frightening, and memorable.
A must for metal fans. Not a landmark by any means, but still a great addition to your metal library.

Rob Zombie - Hellbilly Deluxe
I thought Rob's first solo outing without White Zombie was his weakest, but still not a bad attempt. Maybe I'm just burnt out on "Dragula" and "Living Dead Girl", but they just do not seem to have the same intensity that White Zombie held. It may not be fair to compare the two, but hell, they have similar names, came from the same person, and both sound alike, Rob Zombie just being a watered down version. There are some excellent tracks on here, "Superbeast" and "Return of the Phantom Stranger" being two of them, but I just did not enjoy this as much as I should have. An average CD for me, a commercial success for Rob Zombie, the good thing is that he only got better from here. So far...

WHA HAHA
this album f'n hits...if u dont own a copy of it follow instructions: push start, then shut down, hop in jalopy and drive to local record store to purchase it. 13 songs (13 tales of cadaverous cavorting inside the spookshow international) stand out songs are living dead girl, dragula and superbeast but you can play the entire album from start to finish no problem. if you like to bang your head then you will surely love this!

Rob Zombie - 'Hellbilly Deluxe' (Geffen) 4 1/2 stars
Review #335. Rob Zombie's first solo work after he took a short leave from White Zombie. I remember telling fans that he'll go solo ONLY if this debut of his sells good enough for him to spark up a solo career. Looks like I was right, as Rob never went back to White Zombie since. Tracks here that will remain as true 'extreme metal' gems to us loyal long-timers include "Call Of The Zombie", the *ss-stomper "Dragula" (still like catching the video for this song), "How To Make A Monster", the awesome mosh-pit staple "Living Dead Girl" and "Spookshow Baby". Simply a must-have, if there's still anyone out there that doesn't possess a copy.
