It was September 22, 1998, and the start of one hell of a week for Rob Zombie.
That day, the singer gathered his White Zombie bandmates on a conference call and pulled the plug, bringing to an end one of the most consistently exciting bands of the ’80s and ’90s. Within 24 hours, the spooky foursome officially announced their split, and by the end of the week, Rob would appear on US talk show Late Show With David Letterman to launch his solo career in a mutant rubber suit.
