Rob Zombie has announced his long-awaited new album, The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse Conspiracy. The veteran rocker’s seventh solo LP won’t be released until March 12th, but the first single, “The Triumph of King Freak (A Crypt of Preservation and Superstition)”, is available now.
The 17-song album will arrive nearly five years after Rob Zombie’s previous LP, 2016’s The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser. The single, shortened as “King Freak”, marks his first new song and music video in more than four years.
The track is heavy on the riffs, thanks to guitarist John 5, with a thunderous rhythm section powered by bassist Piggy D and drummer Ginger Fish. The song is accompanied by a music video that combines newly shot footage with concert scenes, presented in a cinematic style reminiscent of Zombie’s horror films.
While The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse Conspiracy won’t arrive for another three months or so, fans hoping to have something tangible in their hands earlier are in luck. A limited-edition 7-inch colored vinyl single version of “The Triumph of King Freak (A Crypt of Preservation and Superstition)” is available now, with album track “The Serenity of Witches” as its B-side.

Pre-order the album or pick up the limited-edition 7-inch single in various bundles via Rob Zombie’s merch site. A digital version is also available for pre-order via Amazon.
