    It might be the most surprising song GRAVE DIGGER has ever released. After nearly four decades of true German heavy metal, the time has come to reach out to different musical influences. After listening to “Zombie Dance” we know for sure that Polka and Metal fit perfect together. This collaboration with their labelmates Russkaja will make you dance, especially when it’s played live on their upcoming “Tour Of The Living Dead”. Be aware!
    Chris Boltendahl on “Zombie Dance”:
    “Polka and Metal - is that fitting? With “Zombie Dance” we are opening the gate to hell for every incarnate, true metalhead and GRAVE DIGGER fan.
    But to be honest … the symbiosis between Metal and Polka turns out to be perfect and calls on everyone to dance and headbang.
    You wanted PARTY - you’ve got it !!! With “Zombie Dance” and its video we give you a late summer hit in 2018. Whoever stands still or remains seated while this song is played is already dead or not born yet !!”

    DEAR FANS, THIS IS A PARTY AND FUN SONG AND SHOWS THE IRONIC AND HUMOROUS SIDE OF THE BAND. WHAT DO YOU THINK ? THAT WE ARE NOW PLAYING POLKA FOR THE REST OF OUR CAREER ? AND IF WE LIKE TO PLAY POLKA WE PLAY POLKA ... AND IF WE THINK THE MUSIC NEEDS BAGPIPES .. THEN WE USE BAGPIPES .... DAILY BUSINESS IT SO SERIOUS SOME TIMES THAT WE FELT TO DO A PARTY FUN SONG ... AND THIS IS ZOMBIE DANCE !!! AND IF WE FEEL SOME TIME TO MAKE A REGGAE METAL SONG .. THEN WE DO IT ... AS LONG THE REST OF AN ALBUM IS METAL... AND IT IS AND IT WILL BE IN THE FUTURE ... WE LOVE ZOMBIE DANCE AS A LOT OF PEOPLE LIKE IT ... AND WE LOVE THE VIDEO ... SO FRIENDS STAY CALM .... WE ARE GRAVE DIGGER ALSO FOR THE NEXT "20" YEARS ... BUT FUN MUST BE FUN !!! STAY METAL FRIENDS !!! :)

    @somnitianshen6888 5 лет назад +72

    LOL at all the elitists giving it a thumbs down for daring to include someone like Russkaja in a SERIOUS METAL VIDEO! Loved this, primarily because it shows that Grave Digger are 100% self-aware and having fun with it, which is one of the best outlooks a metal group can have in my humble opinion.

    • @chrisrudolf9839

      To be fair, regarding Gravedigger a "serious" metal band is a bit of a stretch. Sure, most of their songs are meant to be serious and they had some really hard hitting good ones on serious topics like e.g. Heart of Darkness, but they also always had a lot of very over the top cheesy stuff that's hard to take serious and their bad English and/or the singer's bad pronounciation often makes their lyrics involuntarily comical. I'm glad to see a video like this in which they really own the cheese factor of their work and have fun with it.
      Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan, I have seen them live and I have bought most of their albums, I love their work for what it is, but if you want to take it dead serious, you really need to turn a blind eye to a lot of flaws.

    I read on latest Rock Hard France interview (May 2020), that Chris was upset with the reaction of "some" Grave Digger's fans regarding Zombie Dance ... Well, let me tell you Chris that this video is one of the best I have seen for ages, and even though Thriller (MJ) is not that far away, the humor and the song are amazing. I am not a fan of Polka, but this one is top-notch. Last but not least, Chris looks to be a hell of a good actor, and may be he should consider presenting the 20h00 News in Germany, I am sure he would make a killing. A 30 years Grave Digger fan. Can't wait to hear the new album. Hail Grave Digger !!
