About:
On the WHITE ZOMBIE box set "Let Sleeping Corpses Lie":
"I didn't want anyone to think that it was the beginning of something, but rather the end of something. Putting the box set together really made me appreciate what I am doing now even more. It was time to get the box set when I found a window of time available, I just figured if not now, when? CDs probably wont even exist for much longer. What good is a box set without the box? We were always a band that was slightly out of time and out of step, so it has aged pretty well. I think we did a lot of good stuff in the beginning, very groundbreaking, but you know it just became this painful situation most of the time as it went on. I haven't spoken to any of the WHITE ZOMBIE band members since our last show." -- RZ

CREDITS
James Greene Jr. of Crawdaddy! magazine recently conducted an interview with
former WHITE ZOMBIE guitarist Jay Yuenger. A couple of excerpts from the chat
follow below.
Crawdaddy!: I understand you had no input in "Let Sleeping Corpses Lie", the
WHITE ZOMBIE box set, at all?
Yuenger: Not at all.
Crawdaddy!: How did you find out it was happening?
Yuenger: They sent me and [former bassist] Sean [Yseult] mockups, like, two days
before the release date. There was such little thought put into it. None of the
photos were credited - we were like, "Uh, you know you have to credit photos
or people can sue you?" And they were like, "Oh." There were no liner notes,
which are essential for something like that. I mean, the band had such an
interesting story, how could you not have liner notes? I hear about it all the
time from fans. They're happy that the super rare early records are on there,
that's cool for them to hear, but the packaging sucks. Sean's got all kinds cool
shit - photos and flyers and stuff that they could have put in there.
Crawdaddy!: Well, that sort of answers the next question, which has to do with
the comments Rob Zombie has made in recent years about WHITE ZOMBIE not getting
along or communicating all that well post-"Astro-Creep: 2000". Is there anything
you'd like to say about that at this point?
Yuenger: Not really. It's inevitable when people live on top each other for so
many years that things will go bad, and people will drift apart. It happens with
every band.
Crawdaddy!: I'm detecting an acceptance in your tone. Are there no hard feelings
on your end?
Yuenger: Oh, sure there are. [Uncomfortable laughter] I would have liked to make
another record, but it wasn't in the cards. On Rob's solo albums, you can see
what he wanted to do, where he wanted to go. I always wanted to be in a rock n' roll band, where the primary instruments are guitar, bass, and drums, you
know? We were living in New York City for all those years, hearing all the rap
and techno coming out my favorite bands back then were SLAYER and PUBLIC
ENEMY. I was really all about sampling, and we put out "La Sexorcisto" with all
those samples, and it blew people away. We were like, the first rock band to do
that. And it was great, I loved it. But as time went on, the sampling and techno
stuff started to dominate everything, and I really hated it. Now, you can hear
how little humanity is in Rob's stuff.
Crawdaddy!: [What was the] low point [of your career]?
Yuenger: Oh man, I can tell you exactly.
Our first drummer, Ivan de Prume, left us in the middle of an intensive tour,
and we got this interim drummer our sound man knew
who was very compulsive and had substance abuse issues.
We had this giant show in L.A.,
and the drummer disappeared beforehand and went on a bender.
He was totally fucked up, showed up five minutes before show time.
So, we play this show knowing we're firing him immediately afterwards.
The problem, though, was there were all these record company people backstage
who wanted to take all these photos,
so we had to stand around smiling for a while,
pretending everything was totally cool.
