Out Through the In Door is the eighth album by Vanilla Fudge, released in June 2007, with the US finally following in August 2009. According to the band's official webpage, it originally was to be released in February 2007. The album title is a play on words of the 1979 Led Zeppelin album In Through the Out Door.
The following statement was taken from their website: Coming in February, 2007... A New Album!
It's true! Mark, Vince, Tim, and Carmine were in California in July recording an album of Led Zeppelin covers. Mark said, "Basically, we rearranged some songs — we're doing a lot of their stuff Vanilla Fudge style. Some of the arrangements are slowed down, and some speeded up but I think we've done the songs justice."
In September 2022, a remastered reissue of the album, titled Vanilla Zeppelin, was released with an altered track listing and new cover art by Australian label Golden Robot Records.
