Rob Zombie has been quite vocal over the last year that new music would be arriving in 2020. Without fail, a new song — "The Triumph of King Freak (A Crypt of Preservation and Superstition)" — has finally arrived, one day before Halloween, no less.

The track comes four years removed from Rob Zombie's last album, 2016's tongue-twisting The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser, an album that clocked in at just over 31 minutes and was lauded for its songwriting efficiency.

Longtime Zombie fans should embrace the new songs as it features some of the Zombie trademarks. It's a driving rocker with pummeling guitars, some sampled dialogue and a spooky overall vibe.

Listen to "The Triumph of King Freak" below and follow along with the lyrics (via AZ Lyrics) as well.

This next record has been finished for some time — Zombie confirmed the news in September of last year. "I think it's the best record we've ever made," Zombie told NME. "It's a very big, crazy and complex record that I'm really excited to finally be able to release."

At the time, he stated that the next step was to shoot some "big videos" for the record and was eyeing a February 2020 release. Obviously, plans changed, but having new music from the shock rock industrialist as Halloween draws near is a fine consolation prize, especially in a year where multiple highly-anticipated records were pushed to 2021.

Rob Zombie, "The Triumph of King Freak" Lyrics

King Freak gathering the brains of hyenas
King Freak drinking blood in the arena
King Freak taste the vectors of disease
King Freak destroy you while you're on your knees

We ain't your execution
We ain't your head pollution
We ain't your flock of sheep
We ain't your minds to read

King Freak circling a legion of doom
King Freak exploding from a sonic boom
King Freak ringing your cathedral bells
King Freak calling from the mouth of hell

We ain't your execution
We ain't your head pollution
We ain't your flock of sheep
We ain't your minds to read

And the crows will dig your grave
I do not forgive, I do not save
And the crows will dig your grave
I do not forgive, I do not save

King Freak carve an X into your head
King Freak dripping deeper in the red
King Freak gathering sharks in the shallows
King Freak elevator to the gallows

Rob Zombie, "The Triumph of King Freak"
