1) Formed in 2006 , Zombie Girl comes from Edmonton, Canada, and is the creative project of Renee Cooper. Her music is often described as electronic body music, with elements of rock 'n' roll and classic horror movie themes and a touch of humour. The songs are pumping, groovy and magnificently lead by Renee Cooper's captivating voice. She is the voice, body and spirit behind Zombie Girl. Zombie Girl was signed to the Alfa Matrix label. The first official Zombie Girl show was on Halloween, at the New City venue in Edmonton. Only 30 minutes in length but bearing enough power and gore to stick to the minds of those who attended for years to come.
Her ex-husband Sebastian R. Komor of Icon of Coil co-founded the project and produced the music and most of the lyrics up until their split. The two disbanded and divorced in 2009 due to personal reasons.
In July 2011, Cooper announced via Facebook that she has chosen VoA VoXyd from Ad Inferna to co-write and produce her new forthcoming album, though due to scheduling conflicts, as of May 2013, Dave "Rave" Ogilvie has been announced as the new producer.
Some Zombie Girl songs can be found on different European and Mexican compilations. Creepy Crawler is featured on the industrial compilation Endzeit Bunkertracks, Act 2 (disc 3: Damage Session), We Are the Ones made the Advanced Electronics, Volume 4 (disc 1) tracklist and I Want It debut on Alfa Matrix's own Cyberl@b, Volume 5.0 (disc 2). These releases are also available in North America on the label Metropolis Records.

Funeral Pyre
Zombie Girl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can feel, your burning desire
Please let me be your funeral pyre
Please make me feel, take me higher
I can't feel, the flames in your fire
I can feel, your burning desire
Please let me be your funeral pyre
The lyrics to Zombie Girl's song Funeral Pyre depict a yearning to be engulfed by flames and used as a funeral pyre. The singer is unable to feel the fires that exist around them, but they can sense the burning desire of those around them. It's almost as if the singer is asking to be consumed by the flames in a bid to feel something real and raw. By being turned into a funeral pyre, the singer is transformed from a passive observer to an active participant in the scene, making death an extension of life.
The verses are emotionally charged, with the repetition of "I can't feel" highlighting a sense of detachment towards reality. The chorus, on the other hand, is uplifting and hopeful, where the singer asks to be transformed, to be taken to a higher level of being, where they can finally feel something real. It could be suggested that the song is exploring the idea that humans often have to experience pain and loss to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the world they live in.
