What is with the lack of zombie music? The zombie genre is so popular now a days, yet there is not alot of songs out there that are really based on zombies. Even Rob Zombie only has like 2 songs about zombies. The Zombies don’t have a single song about zombies.
I mean, fuck, they don't even LOOK like zombies. Except for that one guy in the back. He looks a bit zombieish.
Why would you call yourself “The Zombies” if you’re not going to release a single song based on your own band name? The Cranberries have that one song, which is kinda cool when she does that moaning thing… kinda reminds me of a zombie moan. Micheal Jackson’s “Thriller,” of course, comes to mind. Then there’s Insane Clown Posse’s numerous zombie songs, but what i want is one zombie-centric band I can go to when I want to get pumped up about zombie-slaying – a band that i can just pop into my tape deck and pull out my shotty when Z-Day comes around and start blasting away.
And before you even suggest it, Enya is NOT that band.
Can you imagine? Zombies start attacking your car, you pop in a song that sounds like Ice-T’s “Cop Killer”, but replace the word “Cop” with “Zombie”, pull out your favorite weapon, open the door and leave it open (so you can still hear your music) and stay effin them up. That would be completely awesome.
What is that one band? Is there such a band? Should I just make myself a mix? So many questions, so little time – ’cause z-day will be here soon!
Conversely ChristianNOtSlater, The Irish band ‘The Cranberries’ never, to my knowledge, performed a song about fruit, yet did release ‘Zombie’ a Top Ten hit in the mid 1990′s:

Shit sorry just read your article again and noticed you did in fact mention The Cranberries. I’m ashamed for questioning your Zombie Music knowledge.

Send More Paramedics are pretty much a Zombie band.
They’re excellent live. Pretty much unlistenable on record, but excellent live.
