Rob Zombie - Zombie Live

I just picked this up the other day, it's a new release and his first live album. It covers his entire career including some White Zombie material. It's a pretty heavy album with a good set list and pretty good sound. Are there any other fans of Zombie's? And if you also picked it up what do you think about Zombie Live?

Huge Zombie fan, but this is one I'll wait to find cheap. Not too keen on live albums. You ever hear the early White Zombie stuff, pre-God Of Thunder EP?

I am a casual fan, however, the bands that I listen to casually I like to at least get a live or best of album from them. However, this will be low on my priority list. Being a CD junkie on a tight budget requires a lot of sacrifice.

I don't like his studio work, but when I saw him live it was beyond amazing!

Like his studio stuff, seen him live (great show), but I'm not anxious to pick this up. I dunno, I'm just not a big fan of live albums. I think a live dvd would be more suitable. Rob's a very visual artist.

He probably has a live DVD.

The live disc was only $7.99 last week so I picked it up on a whim, because it's Halloween and it's Rob Zombie. It said that it was supposed to come with a dvd, but low and behold Best Buy's ad was incorrect. I guess the dvd of this show is coming out in the spring, so I've heard anyway.

Yeah, he has no DVD yet.

I must say, I've seen White Zombie live a few times and it remains one of the best live shows I've ever seen. The first time I saw Zombie was right when La Sexorcisto came out and they weren't yet that popular. They played with Nudeswirl (amazing) and Chemlab (craptacular).

Even then, with a stripped down stage, at a small venue, they absolutely killed it. Once they got popular, though, their stage turned into something you'd see at a carnival. It was pretty amazing. I remember during one song these damn fireballs exploded and clowns from nooses dropped from the ceiling, scaring the crap out of everyone, but it was frickin' awesome! Absolutely one of the best shows I've seen, probably number two, right below my first show ever (Def Leppard).

That sounds like a pretty sweet concert. I would love to go to a concert like that, a Rob Zombie or Alice Cooper. I've seen KISS and that was very sonically and visually stimulating. I think it's more fun for us when bands that put some thought into their shows other than just having four or five guys standing around playing music...not that there is anything wrong with that...but, a lot of times you pay some pretty high ticket prices to see these guys and if they are just going to stand around and play, well then I can listen to the albums at home for free. IMO

Not really a fan of his all that much!
