Rob Zombie has signed a new deal with Roadrunner Records through its Loud & Proud imprint for the release of his upcoming new album ‘Hellbilly Deluxe 2 – Noble Jackals, Penny Dreadfuls and the Systematic Dehumanization of Cool‘ due out sometime early 2010.

Zombie has also explained the reasons for the the delays on his new album, “The basic structure of releasing a record” was not adequately in place for the project. “Basically the label (Geffen) wasn’t really in a position to promote it or deal with it. It was basically everything, from getting advance copies to the press to…There wasn’t even time to make a video (for the first single, ‘What?’) and we were leaving for the tour. There was the sense that every little thing about the record was rushed — not the music, ’cause that was done for a long time, and that was the thing that was so annoying. We spent so much time crafting the record, we didn’t want it to be something that was so chaotic that it became, ‘Oh, that’s done and gone’ two weeks later.“
