About this Article

Rob Zombie guitarist John5 wanted to write something simple yet scary when he sat down to compose the score for his band leader's latest horror film, "The Lords of Salem." The trick, he said, was coming up with material that wouldn't distract audiences but also wouldn't be easily forgotten. "I always say, it's music that people don't want to listen to, because you're watching the movie. It's tough. It's gotta be good enough, but it can't distract you."
