Zombie Girl is a Canadian electro-industrial/industrial rock project started in 2005. Initially composed of Renee Cooper and producer Sebastian Komor, the group now consists exclusively of Cooper, who uses live musicians. The band's lyrics and themes center on black humor and B movie horror films. Zombie Girl also uses rock and roll-style grooves with their mostly synthetic instruments.[http://www.electrolyrics.com/modules.php?name=ETFrame&op=ver&fid=33 Electro Lyrics interview with Zombie Girl]{{dead link|date=July 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} She has produced two EPs and two full-length albums on the Alfa Matrix record label.
