Hollywood Undead Unmasked: J-Dog on New Singer, Touring with Avenged Sevenfold

Hollywood Undead fuse two diverse musical styles, melodic rock and hip-hop, on their latest album, 'American Tragedy.' The result is a big-sounding disc, fit for a spot in the dance-club mix but with enough guitar-driven power to appeal to the rock-minded music fan.

The guys of Hollywood Undead say that above all, they’re happy that fans dig the album.

“I’m just proud people like it,” says founding member J-Dog, who plays bass guitar and has also done programming and played rhythm guitar in the Hollywood, Calif.-based group. “In this business, there can be a lot of criticism thrown your way, but this album proves that isn’t the case with Hollywood Undead.”

On the way to a gig in Vermont, J-Dog checked in for an exclusive interview with Loudwire to talk about the band's unique blend of sounds and forging on after losing one of their main singers:

Hollywood Undead mixes such a wide variety of musical styles: hip hop, alternative rock, nu-metal. How did you develop such an eclectic sound?

All of us listen to different kinds of music. I recently have been listening to more metal. [Vocalist] Charlie [Scene] is into country. [Screamer]
