White Zombie was an American heavy metal band that formed in 1985. Based in New York City, they started out as a noise rock band, releasing three EPs and one studio album in that style before changing to a heavy metal-oriented sound that broke them to the mainstream. The albums La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Volume One and Astro-Creep: 2000 established them as an influential act in groove metal and industrial metal, respectively. Their best-known songs include “Thunder Kiss ‘65”, “Black Sunshine” and “More Human than Human”. The group officially disbanded in 1998. In 2000, White Zombie was included on VH1’s 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock, ranking at No. 56.
