Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor

Album review time again folks, this time we've got the brand new offering form the lord of horror, the one the only, ROB ZOMBIE!

The 5th studio album by Mr. Zombie, Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor, is released in the same week as his latest movie, Lords Of Salem.


Now we've all come to expect certain things of horror, craziness, and explicit sexual and satanic references, and Mr. zombie and his troop of musical misfits has once again not disappointed in the slightest degree.

This album following up on 2010's Hellbilly Deluxe vol. 2, had quite a lot to live up to, and it has lived up to the great expectations placed upon it.
The first single off the album is, Dead City Radio And The New Gods Of Supertown, is a great song. The typical track that is expected from the Zombie troop, great riffs, awesome groove, and dirty lyrics, sick sick track. But for me the defining track of the album has to be, Teenage Nosferatu Pussy, what a track! It's got an amazing hook, great lyrics and amazing riffs, such a sick track!
The Zombie crew even brings back their awesome dirty southern redneck grooves, with a track called, White Trash Freaks, what more would a dirty redneck want?
One track that prickled my interest particularly, is track number 9. It is a cover, but wow, what a cover! Grand Funk Railroad's We're An American Band, one of my all time favourite rock songs, and to say the least Mr. Zombie does this track more than Justice, he makes it even more awesome than it usually is! I love him for that!

It's a great album, sick sick bubblegum beyond measure!



Does this album dethrone Educated Horses as my go to Zombie album, yes, yes it has!!
