Kasrvnotebook: Sean Yseult, after the breakup of White Zombie, joined the surf rock band The Famous Monsters, and (as of early 2001) left the horror-themed New Orleans-based band Rock City Morgue. She is currently preparing for an upcoming tour with The Cramps
John Tempesta continued his musical relationship with Rob Zombie after the White Zombie breakup, drumming for Zombie on his first two solo albums, Hellbilly Deluxe and The Sinister Urge. He is no longer with Zombie and currently plays for the Rob Zombie-esque band Scum of the Earth with his brother, Powerman 5000 guitarist Mike Tempesta, and ex-Rob Zombie guitarist Mike Riggs, and has recently toured with Testament (as shown on Testament's DVD, Live In London). On February 14, 2006, he was hired as the new drummer for The Cult, before which, he played with Helmet.
J. produced records for stoner rock band Fu Manchu and New York City rockers Puny Human, as well as lending his guitar skills to a few other bands after the breakup of White Zombie.
While Rob Zombie has mostly kept the image of his former band, fans of both White Zombie's and Rob Zombie's music have noted significant musical differences between them, notably the absence of the heavy bass and lead guitar that characterised White Zombie's musical style. Multiple layers and numerous samples are not used as often due to legal issues as the band gained mainstream recognition.
In July 2006, original members Tom Five and Ivan de Prume reunited to perform with Ivan's band Healer for several concerts in Southern California for The Vans Warped Tour. Ivan continues to write and record music with Healer, a middle eastern infused metal band and recording, producing, and engineering for special projects. Sony's Ghost Rider score featured Ivan's drums and percussion.
"J" aka Jay Noel Yuenger: Through his mother, a classical soprano and voice teacher, he was exposed to music early, played piano and sang in children's choirs. Growing up in the diverse Hyde Park neighborhood on Chicago's south side (one of the only truly integrated neighborhoods in the city, rich in culture and history and home to the University Of Chicago), he heard soul, jazz, folk, and of course, the electric blues. He attended Kenwood Academy. His father, a reporter for the Chicago Tribune, was posted as bureau chief in several cities and J. lived in Washington DC, Moscow, and London before he was 12 years old. As a teenager, his interests quickly progressed from pop to hard rock to hardcore punk. He started playing guitar and played a small part in the early 80s Chicago hardcore scene by forming the teen punk band Rights Of The Accused in 1982. They released a 7" EP ( " Innocence" ) in 1983 and opened for several noteworthy groups including Minor Threat, MDC, the Big Boys, Flipper, and Discharge. He left the band ( who would go on to release several albums ) in 1985, tried college, and by 1987 had moved to New York City. After several abortive tries at forming groups in New York and New Jersey, he met the members of White Zombie in early 1989 and auditioned successfully to join the group as guitar player. The band released the previously recorded "Make Them Die Slowly" on Caroline Records, toured the US and Europe and recorded the " God Of Thunder " 12" EP ( also issued on Caroline ). In 1990 the group signed to Geffen records and recorded their major label debut '"La Sexorcisto: Devil Music, Vol. 1", which eventually went on to sell over 2 million copies. During the next 5 years the band was almost constantly on tour, pausing only to record the triple platinum-selling " Astro-Creep: 2000 " . They also contributed songs to various movie sountracks and compilation albums and ended up selling over 6 million records worldwide. Since the official disbandment of White Zombie in 1997, J. has lived in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York and has worked as a recording engineer and record producer. He currently lives in New Orleans and is building a recording studio that will open in 2007.

KASR VIDEO was a weekly 2 hour offshoot of the Arizona State University's original alternative radio station that aired on public access in Phoenix. The music video show featured rarely scene and new music not in the "main stream." Along with non-conventional interviews it became a guilty pleasure with the midnight party crowd. IT's been edited as a sort of best of; minus the music videos. For more info on ASU Student radio goto: [ Ссылка ]
