White Zombie - Make Them Die Slowly (1989)

   If horror fanatism is going by hand in hand with drug abuse, the outcomes could be often weird. Maybe even more weird than without horror fanatism.
   Before White Zombie was into industrial influences and  became famous, they had a longer struggle on a rough way in underground. That period produced 2 full lenght albums, an the second, "Make Them Die Slowly" had a feeling that wasn't so catchy, but definitely attention sparking. It was more into heavy metal, but wasn't an ordinary style at all. Good and exciting themes appearing on this album very often, which were referring to heavy metal, but the ambitions to mix with a more alternative style, turned the whole music into a weird way. Sometimes it's very dark, but suddenly turns groovy, sometimes they sound miserable, and later more like chilling, than more intensive again. It could portray maybe the side effects and exaggerated mood changes of a self-destructive lifestyle. Whatever the inspiration was, it's an interesting album.
