The "FEUD SERIES" Vol. 2: Rob Zombie vs. Ozzy Osbourne: "Stop Stealing My Band Members, You Prick!"

As if to spark interest in his latest borefest Hellbilly Deluxe 2 this time around, Rob Zombie has gone on the attack of the legendary drug-addicted, mush-mouthed mumbler and so-called "prince of 'fucking' darkness" Ozzy Osbourne for stealing his bandmates. First, there was bassist Rob "Blasko" Nicholson, who escaped... I mean, joined up with Ozzy in 2006 to provide the low-end rumble after the spot was vacated by Robert Trujillo in 2003 for the more lucrative venture with Metallica.

Then, and most recently, drummer Tommy Clufetos jumped the Zombie ship in favor of being the new skinsman after Mike Bordin held the seat for nine years. My question is, did it ever occur to Mr. Zombie that maybe his music just doesn't cut it anymore? That he's just an awful Alice Cooper rip-off with very limited musical ability and appeal, and that perhaps Blasko and Clufetos wanted to stretch themselves - albeit mildly - and go for the brass ring with Osbourne? Osbourne may be a dinosaur, an old relic who can barely scare a group of old women at a Sunday church meeting, but at least he can produce cash - either through CD sales, book sales, or touring with Scamfest.... I mean, Ozzfest.

Personally, I think Rob has spent too much time fucking up the Halloween franchise to know what true rock and metal is. My advice is, if your band members are leaving you, then the fault and problem lies with YOU! If they're not good enough, or willing to hang, then it's their loss and you need find BETTER musicians who can do the job that their predecessors couldn't. Just sayin'....
