Hellbilly Deluxe 2 (Hol) [CD]

"Hellbilly Deluxe 2: Noble Jackals, Penny Dreadfuls and the Systematic Dehumanization of Cool" is the fourth solo studio album (2010) by former White Zombie frontman Rob Zombie. This is the first album with bassist Piggy D and the last with drummer Tommy Clufetos. "Hellbilly Deluxe 2" is also the first release where Rob Zombie worked with his full touring band. Previous albums were written and recorded by Rob Zombie himself and a rotating set of session musicians. This Part 2 is more organic, bluesy, and raw-sounding compared to the Hellbilly Deluxe 1 album, with less electronic influence but with a stronger focus on classic Hard Rock and Metal guitar riffs. Rob Zombie enlisted the help of artists Dan Brereton (creator of *Nocturnals*), Alex Horley (of Image Comics and DC Comics), and David Hartman (storyboard artist) to create the album artwork. British dark/horror/science fiction/steampunk artist Sam Shearon aka 'Mister Sam Shearon' (artwork for Ministry, Slayer, Clive Barker, and tour merchandise for Iron Maiden) also contributed to the artwork of "Hellbilly Deluxe 2".
