Rob Zombie has spent his career mining everybody else’s past, but the new box set Let Sleeping Corpses Lie goes deep into his own. The release collects every song and video released by the band during their 12 year career, from their humble beginnings as a New York art-noise act through the massive cyber-metal powerhouse Astro-Creep 2000: Songs of Love, Destruction and Other Synthetic Delusions of the Electric Head. “We never fit in,” says Zombie. “At every point in our career, we’d have people standing around confused going ‘What the fuck is this?’” Click below for more from Zombie, including his new music and film projects and why he never liked the idea of going solo.
