JOHN 5 does his best to disguise lifeless riffs with some stylish playing and a killer tone, resulting in some nice mainstream metal. It is also his best-selling song, and had sold over 717,000 copies in the U. Since its release it has become Zombie's most recognizable song as a solo artist. It was released in August 1998 as the lead single from his solo debut Hellbilly Deluxe. "Sick Bubblegum" is catchier than any song with a "Rock, motherfucker" rejoinder deserves to be, and "What?" may be the best GIBBY HAYNES impression since 1996, right down to lyrics that sound made up on the spot. 'Dragula' is a song co-written and recorded by American rock musician Rob Zombie. Even when he isn't sounding awkwardly experimental, songs like "Mars Needs Women" and "Burn" are worthy of Rob's mediocre kid brother's band, but not the guy who gave us Astro-Creep 2000.


"Werewolf Women of the SS" is an undeserving musical counterpart to Rob's inspiring Grindhouse trailer. The artsy detours and sound clips on "Jesus Frankenstein" and particularly the interminable "The Man Who Laughs" distract from otherwise fine songs. He's maintained the bells and whistles that made WHITE ZOMBIE stand out, but he no longer has the hooks to carry them. Sheri Moon Zombie sounds like an artist who should be on Roadrunner pitching himself to The End Records.
