Hot Take:
KernKraft 400 classic "Zombie Nation" is not "Zombie Nation".
Someone walked into the studio when they were recording it and thought they heard the words "zombie Nation" when in fact its just the word "Domination".
"Zombie Nation" is a catchier title so they used it.

Fun Fact, now you've read this, you will forever hear "Domination" and you will hate me for it ❤😁

Meet the Sluts Pt.2
Eli is responsible for the heavy riffs and growling secondary vocals in Valley of the Sluts. Through their techno project Tsorn (wordplay on the german word for rage), they also bring dark and heavy tones to the dancefloor. While early influences came from bands like Nirvana and The Prodigy, their inspiration now spans the entire music spectrum, from R&B to black metal.

The creators of #house, #techno, #electro and other foundational dance music genres not only aren’t reaping the benefits of the music’s highly lucrative global explosion—they’re now dying off as well, often at troublingly young ages.

It’s not a coincidence that many of these artists are Black, as the average life expectancy of Black people in the US has long lagged behind that of their white counterparts.
