Rob Zombie’s New Video Has a Wholesome Message for Today’s Youth

I remember writing up Rob Zombie’s last album, Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor, for a year-end list, and I mentioned that is seemed like the dude was doing all the right drugs. My editor then made me add that Zombie was actually sober, despite the record’s absurd psychedelic qualities. I couldn’t believe it — Him, sober?

Well, Rob Zombie just released the video for his new song, “In The Age Of The Consecrated Vampire We All Get High,” and I continue to find his sobriety hard to believe. I mean, there’s the title, there’s Rob’s outfit, there’s Rob’s stellar dance moves, oh, and, lest I forget, there’s the five foot tall flashing sign that says ‘GET HIGH’ around which the band is playing. How am I not supposed to immediately think that Rob takes five hits of acid and watches The House on Haunted Hill every single night of the week?

Oh, the song? It’s a Rob Zombie song. It’s monster-oriented jock jam biker rock. If you like that, well, enjoy.

Check out “In The Age Of The Consecrated Vampire” below. Zombie’s latest, The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser, comes out April 29th.
