Born Robert Bartleh Cummings in Haverhill, Massachusetts, he was the first of two sons. Following their signing to Geffen Records, White Zombie achieved commercial success, with a double and triple platinum album and a large number of their songs featured in movies and TV shows (notably Beavis and Butthead and Millennium). in a 2008 interview to promote the release of Let Sleeping Corpses Lie, Rob Zombie made it clear that a reunion with his White Zombie bandmates was unlikely, saying, “I don’t want fans to think it’s the beginning of anything.” Cummings legally changed his name to Rob Zombie, his former stage name, in 1996. Since January 6, 1999, it has been the opening theme for Stern’s radio show. The album was a success, selling three million copies domestically.
