There is no instant hit of the "Living Dead Girl" variety, but across 11 songs, "Hellbilly Deluxe 2" is Zombie's most consistently tuneful record to date, without sacrificing the noise and industrial beats of the past.
-
While "Hellbilly Deluxe 2" certainly captures the Saturday afternoon matinee spirit of his 1998 solo debut, it's also a different kind of creature.

Regardless, the musician-auteur does not overly besmirch the memory of HD1 with such monster-invoking metalers as ''Jesus Frankenstein'' and ''Werewolf Women of the SS.''
-
Musically, it's pretty much vintage Zombie-- relatively catchy metal with the occasional industrial vibe.
