American Zombie, a twisted ride through a world of pop junkies and undead club divas resulted froma 2 year collaboration between ninetwelve and producer yluko.



Like Mrs Leeds famous son, ninetwelve's American Zombie is the devil child spawned by horror punk and EBM, bringing a Rock-Roots perspective to goth dance. Thematically exploring the duality of genre horror and the real life grotesque of American Pop Culture American Zombie's track list sways between tribute and satire.



Horror anthem Mother of Darkness, a tribute to genre director Dario Argento, lures dancers with power melody and four to the floor into a flourish of texture and micro edits- keeping them stomping the entire ride.



I Hope You Die is a mantra for the death of an ingenuous iGeneration alienated from interpersonal relationships by the instant gratification of e-culture.



Cumhog's gender bending chorus, a constant in Philadelphia clubs, already has kids stomping to the beat of “Pig Scum Virus Whore!” as it questions modern pornography's vision of sexuality. American Zombie juxtaposes real life horror with film trope with anthem choruses, speaking to a goth culture in the midsts of a mainstream gone mad.



Yluko's production demonstrates the craft of dance music- searing synth lines go beyond stage settings for formulaic dance, weaving dynamics and melody with percussive texture. Samples and glitch noise function as structurally in high energy dance tracks. American Zombie fits perfectly into the fog and strobe filled word of the boot scuffed dance floors but has a place in a serious music listener's collection.
