White Zombie
Astro-Creep: 2000

THE REVIEW

New York quartet formed in 1987 led by the eccentric and versatile Rob Zombie (who has been the director of two excellent films).

"Astro creep" born from the mind of the perverse yet unique Rob Zombie, never as much as on this album (from the White period, of course) does he give his best, transitioning from an incredible deep voice to a nasal voice that only he can.

The album opens with "Electric Head part 1 The agony" which just from the title says it all, beautiful and very gritty, not to mention songs like "More Human Than Human" that have made this character’s history, not to mention "I Zombie" (in my opinion the best track on the album) heavy shocking he couldn’t do better, the shocking "El phantasmo and chicken-run blasto-rama" also very gritty, heavy (I can't imagine the mosh pit at his concert would be destructive).

The cd as a whole is well made, one of the best in my opinion from the White Zombie period, not the entire cd is made up of shocking tracks like the ones mentioned above, but it has character and it’s certain that with such a cd, it’s hard to get bored and be disappointed (for the amount spent) listening is mandatory, the purchase is reserved for connoisseurs.

I recommend you also give a listen to the solo CDs of my and hopefully your favorite Zombie. Best regards
