Warthur
Rob Zombie's debut solo album cemented his place in groove-flavoured industrial metal as the more fun and less pretentious answer to Marilyn Manson (and he pulls off a better Alice Cooper leer than Manson here and there on the album too). It's a notoriously front-loaded release, with by far the best tracks being right at the front in the form of the one-two-three punch of Superbeast, Dragula and Living Dead Girl, but it wouldn't be fair to write off the remaining tracks as filler - it's just that they tend to be variations on the themes introduced by the lead singles. Proving that you can do shock rock light industrial whilst not taking yourself too seriously, Hellbilly Deluxe is a party on a disc and impenetrable protection against po-faced people who take industrial rock too seriously.
