    Fun, wild, and addictive, The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse Conspiracy builds upon 2016's already-impressive Electric Warlock and winds up being one of Zombie's best.

    As with most of the LP, the instrumentation and lyrics are equal parts memorable and evil. Let’s face it, memorable and evil are two traits any fan would want from a Rob Zombie album.

    The Lunar Injection… is too long and could easily be trimmed of material most diplomatically described as ​‘non-essential’, particularly the little instrumentals/sample-laden wig outs between tracks. The rub is, of course, that these short sonic mood boards are often the bits where Zombie tries something new.

    With a hackneyed focus on forcibly juxtaposing several random styles into their main rock sound, the stupidly long track names, and the uninspired hard rock instrumental work we get on here, essentially the album comes across as a tasteless meme.

    Offers the same disco-metal dreck he's been peddling for 30 years. [Mar 2021, p.73]

While I respect this artist and what he brought to the table, there is a time that a person needs to take a very long term break. Sorry Rob, it's true. The industry has to keep reinventing itself to keep from dying. Full Review »

Yet, where the biggest evolution in Rob’s music comes from is his approach to sex. Although still prevalent as much as other common topics (i.e. drugs, violence, satanism), the lyrics aren’t as explicitly demeaning towards women. Trust me, in 2021, this is progress. Full Review »

    Rob's most ambitious album yet as it turns out is also his most interesting by far. Not only do you still have the outstanding chemistryRob's most ambitious album yet as it turns out is also his most interesting by far. Not only do you still have the outstanding chemistry between Zombie, John 5, Piggy D, Ginger fish and producer Zeuss but now you have that chemistry fueling a crazed concept album about the birth, corruption, disintegration and eventual death of a universe filled with both monsters and madness.
    Keep up the great work guys!
