JOHN 5 Pulls Double Duty On ROB ZOMBIE’s New Album And Film – Feb. 21, 2013<\/strong><\/p>\nGuitarist\u00a0John 5\u00a0has been a busy artist this last year in between tours with\u00a0ROB ZOMBIE\u00a0and solo undertakings.\u00a0John 5’s extraordinary talent has led him to be an integral part of rock icon and auteur filmmaker\u00a0Rob Zombie. Last year\u00a0John 5\u00a0stepped up to fully to score\u00a0Zombie’s upcoming movie release,\u00a0“The Lords Of Salem”, and once again partnered with\u00a0Zombie\u00a0for the new album,\u00a0“Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor”.<\/p>\n
For his first time ever,\u00a0John 5\u00a0scored a full-length motion picture.<\/p>\n
“This was a huge challenge for me,” explains\u00a0John 5. “It was like 10 times the intensity of writing a record. It took months and months as the timing is key to each scene. The music was very challenging and sometimes there was no key signature or time signature for this music, which is all orchestral and acoustic with the exception of one death metal song. You had to be able to follow the story and create emotions for each scene with the music. I cannot wait for people to see and hear this movie. It is incredible<\/em>!”<\/p>\n“The Lords Of Salem”\u00a0tells the tale of\u00a0Heidi\u00a0(played by\u00a0Rob’s wife\u00a0Sheri Moon Zombie), a radio station DJ living in Salem, Massachusetts, who receives a strange wooden box containing a record, a “gift from the Lords.”\u00a0Heidi\u00a0listens, and the bizarre sounds within the grooves immediately trigger flashbacks of the town’s violent past. Is\u00a0Heidi\u00a0going mad, or are “The Lords Of Salem” returning for revenge on modern-day Salem?<\/p>\n
John 5, in full collaboration with\u00a0Zombie, created\u00a0“Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor”, which streets April 23, and includes the first single\u00a0“Dead City Radio And The New Gods Of Super Town”, along with such tracks as\u00a0“Ging Gang Gong De Do Gong De Laga Raga”,”Lucifer Rising”,\u00a0“Behold! The Pretty Filthy Creatures”\u00a0and a heavy-duty cover of\u00a0GRAND FUNK RAILROAD’s\u00a0“We’re an American Band”.<\/p>\n
“I can only describe this album as an aggressive, live-sounding and totally unique album,<\/em>” states\u00a0John 5. “This album has a little bit for everybody. The guitar tones are not traditional. There is also an instrumental track called\u00a0‘The Theme For The Rat Regeneration Vendor’\u00a0which is a all played aggressively with an electric sitar.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Blabbermouth has reported on a new interview John 5 has made where he speaks about working on his first full film score – Rob Zombie’s The Lords of Salem (out April 19 2013). and the forthcoming Rob Zombie studio album Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor (out April 23, 2013)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[13,14,248,346],"class_list":["post-3188","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-interview","tag-john-5","tag-rob-zombie","tag-the-lords-of-salem","tag-venomous-rat-regeneration-vendor","tw-post-no-content"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1qFj4-Pq","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":3525,"url":"https:\/\/john-5.com\/main\/2013\/06\/04\/watch-fearnets-exclusive-interview-with-john-5\/","url_meta":{"origin":3188,"position":0},"title":"[WATCH] Fearnet’s exclusive interview with John 5","author":"Dillon -
