John Tempesta was the drumming driving force behind "White Zombie" and then "Rob Zombie".

The only member left from the horror-rock master’s previous incarnation, White Zombie, John Tempesta’s ability to combine blazing heavy-rock chops with modern electronic loops and programs makes him the perfect foundation for Zombie’s signature hard-edged electronic Rock.

Rob Zombie’s hugely successful Hellbilly Deluxe CD features an amazing array of rock solid grooves courtesy of John Tempesta, but the subsequent tours have really been the best showcase for John’s formidable skills.

Live, John’s incredible double-bass drum chops truly get a work out. In the midst of his monstrous kit, not only does John replicate the grooves from the CD with incredible power and precision but he also enhances them taking his drumming further and deeper.
