This is really cool, thank you for your interest. We had fun back in the day. Stu invited me and reckless up on stage a few months ago in Sydney and we played some old ZGT acoustic. We love all of our fans and thank you for the video.
Oh wow, thank you so much! That is so rad! You just made my day. Thank you so much for your comment!
I loved hearing your songs back in 2012 but I soon discovered the band was over. Thank you for your music, I don't play rockab' or psycho anymore but you helped me get on stage !
Psychobilly. They were rolling strong for around 5 or 10 years, but the scene died away, because it was pretty specific. (You were either in it- or you weren't.)
They were running neck and neck with the New Wave Teddy's, and a lot of us stayed hard with them, as the posers started incringing.
The scene was strong for easily half the decade, and we started seeing it fall apart in around 2010/2011. It was fully dead by 2015.
Shout out to Big Daddy Bibtard, you marvelous bastard! I Hope you're still alive out there!
I miss the real skinhead scene
I also discovered them after they broke up, Night Time Crawling and Long Dark Night my two favorites, great band, power trio, dark but funny about it. Dude's voice is amazing, whole band is super solid and the tunes are well written. Thanks for the video. They're a band I love that seemingly just got missed or forgot or something👍
I saw ZGT countless times between 2003 and 2005, mainly at the Empire Hotel at Annandale, Sydney. As a crusty mohawked punk it was always fun to hassle them as they did their pretty make up and hair in the toilet before the gig! They were always in good humour and their gigs were always fun, especially the Ska versus Rockabilly nights. 3 bands from each genre playing one after the other with the winning genre decided by the loudest claps and cheers at the end. Lots of beer and not much sleep... fun times!
I bought Monster Formal Wear at one gig, the merch stand was being run by the drummer's mum. I played that CD to death. I miss it.
My favourite song was whatever Misfits cover they did on the night but they stopped doing that around 2004. I kept requesting it though, they would laugh and apologise.
I found out about Zombie Ghost Train when I had to do a presentation in my english class and bought the album "Glad Rags & Body Bags" with 15 as well. I found "Dealing the Death Card" as well! I really loved and still love the music. But I never found any other psychobilly/ gothabilly? (is that correct?) music like them! Any recommendations??
Also I love the video of yours! You did an awesome job!
Cap. Reckless plays in a band called “better of ted”, i think they are still friends since they played, with aj too, a gig together a couple of months ago!
zgt were one of my favorite bands! its sad they quit
Captain Reckless, along with Azzy-T if I remember correctly, were briefly in a band called Captain Reckless and the Lost Souls! I can only find one song of theirs, "We Pulled You In," which can be listened to on the website ReverbNation. There are also a few live videos of them on CZcams, but the quality isn't too good. They've got a horn section and it's real interesting!
My favorite Zombie Ghost Train songs are Dark Times, 13 Tears, Night Time Crawling, and Blue Moon of Kentucky!
i miss that graveyard queen
Ok - the bass player had to leave - he's had 2 lung replacements so that broke up the band. I only saw them oncw but damn they were a good band live!
One of Australias best kept “secrets”!
You say you have "Glad Rags & Body Bags"? Did you find it secondhand or did you score it from a music store? Really trying to get my hands on that record lol
I honestly don't remember. I was 15 hahaha
You can always use a video to MP3 converter, download each song from YT and burn them onto a CD. I dunno why it's so hard to find now. eBay could be a good option, as well.
It's on MP3VA
Still friends with stu too i mean, they played all together in february
It really would be nice if they kept going. Or come back one day. Feels like most psychobillybands that I listened to has quit making music. Genre dying mayhap? Anyhoo, Stu did make an appearance on Mad Sins record Unbreakable, he's on the introsong there.
Psychobilly certainly isn't dying out in the UK! 🙏🏻🇬🇧
Check out a band called left hand black. If you havent.
Thanks for the recommendation!
@@RockinPinUpSarahVeda and movie wise check out sore losers its really independent.
Oh, yes! I'd definitely love to find it and review it for another rockin' movies video! Haven't done one of those in a long while ....or a deep dive into bands like this one either 😅
Thank you for your recommendations, I 'preciate it!
It was only 2 days ago that I discovered ZGT. I have to say that I'm all in. My normal lanes of music are Hardcore Punk,Death Metal & Black Metal so the fact that the algorithm fed me ZGT is kind of a trip. Fate maybe. Proof that I need to look around a little. Anyway, enough of my jibba jabba. Thanks for the video, although finding out that ZGT is no more is a real downer. That means that I cannot see them live.👹💀👹
Awesome! Yea, psychobilly is one of my top genres along with black metal. Dark Funeral is my favorite!
Definitely sucks that ZGT isn't together anymore. Also, not sure why my older videos are starting to go through the algorithm but hey! If it broadens the horizons then I'm all for it! Thank you for your comment! I appreciate it. And thank you for reminding me I should cover more awesome bands! Keep it rockin' 🤘🏻
@@RockinPinUpSarahVeda You are welcome. It's funny that you mention Dark Funeral... I'm wearing one of their shirts right now. People up here in the mountains where I live don't know what to make of me and what I wear. Suits me fine. What I'm tending to like best about rocka/psychobilly is the spartan nature of the bands themselves and how they perform live. Just the music is what I'm interested in. I think about Iron Maiden. Great they may be, I don't go to concerts to see a Broadway musical. I wanna rock. Anyway, enough of my jibba jabba. Keep on rockin' mamma!!!!🤘👹💀👹🤘
Am I the only one who still dresses this way in 2024??? 🖤👀⚰️
Legendary shack shakers. And joe buck yourself is good.
Nekromantix Couldn't relate 😂 still playing strong 💪
I love Nekromantix, too. Wish I could see them and Patricia ,one day. Saw Koffin Kats live when I was 20, tho! Most psychobilly bands never hit NC so I have yet to be graced with their presence lol
