I thought this was a pretty fun listen. Agree with the above comment, album ends before things starts to drag. The vast majority of the interludes can be binned though, they add very little to the overall sound/atmosphere of the album and they feel a bit like an excuse for Rob to be 'weird' and have more stupidly named song titles. Some songs aren't great, but there are a couple of bangers on here (e.g. The Triumph of King Freak & Crow Killer Blues) worth checking out.

at least with the last album, in between the vacuous interludes, there were some tasty riffs. i keep going back to this hoping it will change my mind but i can't even get through it now lol

I had such high hopes after hearing Triumph of King Freak, but this fell flat for me, hard. I can't even remember any of the other tracks, honestly.

I definitely found this album to be fun. Found myself dancing in the kitchen @3am going "wait, what is this?" (for effect)
The album flow is strong here, there're just a handful of fillers. Made it halfway through before observing the track list.
I thought this was a step up from Rat Vendor, and I thought that was a step up from everything after Sinister Urge. This actually feels like an experimental album to me while still hanging on to his core aesthetics. Kind of has the charm of a serial killer who loves his family. The balance in the lyricism kind of reflects that by being more and less blatant simultaneously.
Def removed from Hellbilly Deluxe, and I like it for that. HD2 wasn't doing it for me.
And to be totally honest, I don't actually care about John 5's technical contributions. That has never been the main draw of a RZ album to me; It's the themes, samples, vocals, grooves, and textures. Anything else seems like a cherry on top.

The first 2 and Hellbilly deluxe 2 are good. Rest is meh.

Every Zombie album is the same. Approximately 2 songs worth additional plays and then a ton of other convoluted, directionless, weird bullshit.

You've obviously never listened to the first 2.

Anything pre hellbilly 2 is very distinct

Sounds as messy and cluttered as the album art. I just don’t understand who this is for exactly. It’s not fun enough to match the weirdness he’s clearly going for, and it’s not mature enough to have artistic merit. It’s just gross and feels low budget and washed up, like everything else he’s done post-Hellbilly 2
