Rob Zombie Quits Record Label

Filed under: Music Minute

After being with Geffen Records for 18 years, Rob Zombie is leaving the label and moving on to Roadrunner Records.

Zombie claims that Geffen didn't give him enough time to promote his new album, Hellbilly Deluxe 2, before it's November 9th release. We think he might be right because it's the first we've heard of it.

Under Roadrunner the album will hit shelves sometime next year giving the rocker ample time to get the word out.

Zombie says:

"It certainly wasn't an easy decision to make after all this time, but it had to be done. I love this new record and wanted to surround myself with an excited new group of people who can reignite my enthusiasm for working within a hard rock record label. Roadrunner seems to be the perfect place."

Sometimes change is a good thing!

      I kind of thought his creative outlet was now directing horror films. That is not to say you can't have 1, 2, or 3(olives vodka sucks) creative outlets.

      I can't believe he's coming to road runner!! Can't wait to hear the new album see if it blows or not.

      I wanna know what's living in that beard… would love to investigate ;)

      Man why do you keep mentioning the olive vodka it's making me thirsty. Except I wouldn't drink that. I imagine it has olive flavor and i'm not in the mood for a olive martini. I'll have a dry martini.
      wait.
      Three measures of Gordon
      One of vodka
      Half a measure of Kina Lillet
      Shake it over ice
      And add a thin slice of lemon to it

      I already have a name for it because it's my favorite drink

      vesper i see you now mentioning kettle one now, now so let me just say it was on the way just had to get the exact dialogue down

      rob zombie is a dickhead who takes pleasure in being rude to and not tipping waiters and waitresses. fuck him.



    12. 12

      ur not getting the joke??



    13. 13

      Look up what Vesper martini is. It's my favorite drink so it was easy to decide what i was going to call it. Here's a tip, looking too beautiful on that halloween was maybe my fave moment of all. That's why i remember talking to you right after and being like for the love of GOD just don't mention anything else about that night. Do not spoil that moment. I don't know how long we were looking at eachother. It was way toooo short

      Sounds like the right shit label for him. He hasn't done anything original since White Zombie broke up. His films are sacreligious to horror. He fits in perfectly with Nickleback and Slipknot. Hasbeen city.



    15. 15

      Roadrunner is realing in artists from all over.



    16. 16

      ew. his beard is disgusting. it looks like a patch of overgrown pubes from a 70's porno.



    17. 17

      Hmm… interesting.



    18. 18

      Bring on the Rob Zombie & Zakk Wylde records since Zakk is also with Road Runner

      No, haven't read The Twits, but I like Roald Dahl.
      He's written so many good books and short stories.



    23. 23

      "The Twits" is a really good read.



    24. 24

      If Geffen let go of it without a fight ( $$$) — the new CD must suck hard



    25. 25

      that beard is more human then a human



    26. 26
