Do not mistake The Zombies with Rob Zombie

Tried to cue up some Rob, ended up hearing The Zombies. It was startling. Don't do this.

That is all...

More Zombie than Zombie?

 

[Ghostman]

More Zombie than Zombie?

well played sir.

 

[GrumpySquatch]

Forgot how much of it has a club beat. Had to turn it off. The metal stuff is exquisite.

 

[DirtySteve]

You mean these Zombies? Yeah, that would be a bit of a shock, lol.

It's a play on one of Rob's songs.

I do love that stuff when I have a hankering.

Good song! Had been a while. One of the tracks I heard before the club theme got to me.

The hypnotic alure of the metal stuff... Is it the mix?

Track 8 of "Astro-Creep: 2000" - "More Human than Human"

I like Rob Zombie/White Zombie fine, but this is inarguably one of the greatest albums ever recorded:

Be careful or you might end up with a "special role" in one of Rob's horror films hehe...

Watched House of 1000 Corpses after an ⅛ of cubensis once. That was....pretty cool.

Which would be better? A cover of She's Not There in the style of White Zombie, or a cover of More Human Than Human in the style of the Zombies?

I knew and liked Paul Atkinson, I would never confuse one Zombie for another...

 

[Headache]

White Zombie > Rob Zombie

Always use caution to not get your Zombies mixed up

The Zombies were better. She’s Not There is one of the greatest rock records ever made. They have had a really long career too.

I agree, but... that's just personal preference. And...I didn't get to know Atkinson until he gone off to A&R with RCA. I was sorta young when he was lamenting that she wasn't there...
so there's that.

Agreed. Had been a while since I had a hankering for Rob, not all as remembered.

Songs like Thunder Kiss '65 are quite cool. Think that was the first RZ song I heard.
