Members FallofEmpyrean Posted December 5, 2005 Members Share Posted December 5, 2005 The other day, I was shopping at Best Buy and saw the two White Zombie CDs. I was looking at them, thinking, "Wow, I remember liking these a lot as a young teenager," so I picked 'em up. They are damn good. Brings back good memories from first getting into metal, and the (somewhat) glory days of good metal being on the radio in the early-to-mid 90s. Appreciated.

Members rockstrongo Posted December 5, 2005 Members Share Posted December 5, 2005 I loved White Zombie years ago. I still play Make Them Die Slowly from time to time. J. Yuenger had such a heavy tone at the time.......he made me want to play metal, but man that guy could do the stoner rock thing extremely {censored}ing well. Plus, J had the coolest signature guitar EVAR: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members espdna Posted December 5, 2005 Members Share Posted December 5, 2005 White Zombie contiues to have regular rotation in my cd player. I've seen them a few times live, such a fun show, giant robots walking around on stage and such. Rob Zombie was also the 2nd best performance on Ozzfest this year. Great Great stuff. Also, whenever I hear Thunderkiss '65 it reminds me of ECW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BrendanO Posted December 5, 2005 Members Share Posted December 5, 2005 I dig their whole catalogue, including Psycho-Head Blowout, and all the pre-Sexorcisto stuff. Astro Creep 2000 is my favorite, though. What really gets me is Rob Zombie's ear for production. They turned these simple riffs and song structures (we're talking really simple), and turns them in to goddamn battering rams. Production wise, Astro Creep is a marvel like that. And Tempesta is a heck of a drummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ranalli Posted December 8, 2005 Members Share Posted December 8, 2005 I wish he would have kept the band though and kept them kinda groovy like on La Sexorcisto. That album had a real good groove on it....his later stuff when he ditched the band is just crappy techno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tedbro27 Posted December 8, 2005 Members Share Posted December 8, 2005 what I love most about White Zombie is the tambourine in every song - refreshingly humorous for that style of music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members I.P. Freeley Posted December 8, 2005 Members Share Posted December 8, 2005 Gripping the wheel, his knuckles went white with desire, as the wheels of his mustang exploded on the highway like a slug from a .45. True death, 400 horsepower of maximum performance piercing the night. This is Black Sunshine. Man, I just about wore that tape out in '93. I got to see them in Little Rock with the Rev. Horton Heat and the Melvins. It was an awesome show. All the samples of the screams really hurt your ears, though. I think J. was using one of the Robin guitars at that time.

Members joncyberboy Posted April 27, 2006 Members Share Posted April 27, 2006 I am yet to hear something as refreshing and new as White Zombie were back around Astro Creep. Best metal production ever i think too. What happened to J? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
