Hellbilly Deluxe

The lead single, "Dragula", was released in August 1998, which entered the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. A remix of the song was used in the action film The Matrix, and was covered by metalcore band Motionless in White. The second single, "Living Dead Girl", became Zombie's second Top 10 on the "Mainstream Rock" chart, and was featured in numerous horror films following its release. "Superbeast", the album's last single, was released in 1999. The song has, like the previous singles, been featured in numerous films since its release. Hellbilly Deluxe was a commercial success, debuting at number 5 on the Billboard 200. The album went on to sell over three million copies in the United States alone, earning it a 3x Platinum Certification from the RIAA. Hellbilly Deluxe is Zombie's best selling album to date. Hellbilly Deluxe received mixed critical reviews. The album's commercial success, however, spawned a remix album in 1999 titled American Made Music to Strip By. The album features remixes for the majority of the album. In 2005, Hellbilly Deluxe was re-released featuring new artwork and a bonus DVD which featured a music video for all of the tracks. Zombie himself directed the music videos for the songs. Zombie's 2010 album Hellbilly Deluxe 2: Noble Jackals, Penny Dreadfuls and the Systematic Dehumanization of Cool is a follow up to Hellbilly Deluxe, and features similar musical styles and themes. On September 14, 2009 it was announced that Rob Zombie would embark on his Hellbilly Deluxe 2 World Tour, in support of the album. Music from the original album was performed on the tour, as well as new material.
