Ivan De Prume. (White Zombie. Big News. Record Producer)

My guest on Episode 194 of The Brooklyn Blast Furnace is former drummer for White Zombie, Ivan de Prume! Born in Brooklyn, then moved to Lower Manhattan where he eventually met Sean Yseult, who eventually became the bass player for White Zombie. They formed a short lived band called, "Life". Then enter Rob Cummings, also known as Rob "Dirt" Straker also known as Rob Zombie. Sean and Rob formed the band, then after their first EP "Gods on Voodoo Moon", their drummer left so they called on Ivan. He remained with the band until the middle of the "La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Vol. 1" tour. Releasing three full length records and a couple EP's before they signed to Geffen Records and released La Sexorcisto. He went on to produce records and had a band called "Healer" and a side project or two. He histed a weekly metal show in Portland, Oregon and continues to live a good life out there. Definitely a lot of fun to chop it up with him. Enjoy.
