Rob Zombie guitarist John 5 has announced that his new album, Sinner, will arrive Oct. 29, right in time for Halloween, via Big Machine Records.

He's also released first track from the album, the passionate "Que Pasa," featuring Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine. Watch the official music video below.

Regarding the album, John 5 said, "When people hear this record, I want them to say, ‘Oh, that’s John 5.’ What you get with Sinner is the best of me. I just want to write memorable riffs that people will enjoy. When I sit on my couch and play my guitar, I play the same things you hear on the instrumental records. It’s honest. It’s real. It’s not a façade. This is how I play. This is what I love to do.”

He added, “I have such an appreciation for Dave, and I love his voice, guitar playing and songwriting. And he kills it on 'Que Pasa.' It was such a joy to have him on this track."

Both John 5 and Mustaine will be at RiffFest this weekend! Find details here.
