SCUM OF THE EARTH - Begin Writing New Material For Next Album

In stores everywhere now - Scum Of The Earth released their debut CD entitled Blah...Blah...Blah...Love Songs For The New Millennium almost a year ago, and have begun writing new material for their next album. The strong ROB ZOMBIE influence that one hears in Scum Of The Earth's material is no coincidence; the modern rock/alternative metal outfit is led by Riggs, the in-your-face singer, guitarist, songwriter and producer who is best known for the six years he spent in Rob Zombie's employ, having co-written and played those guitar grinds we all loved so much from radio hits such as 'Dragula', 'Living Dead Girl', 'Superbeast' and many others. Riggs joined forces with Rob Zombie in the ‘90s and stayed with him through 2004, Riggs decided to start a project of his own-and that project is Scum Of The Earth. Featuring guest performances by John Tempesta (ex-Rob Zombie), Mike Tempesta (PM5K), and John Dolmayan (SOAD).
