Chicken Zombies is an album by Thee Michelle Gun Elephant, released in 1997.[2][3]

The album made it to #4 on the Japanese albums chart.[4]

Album cover

[edit]

The CD album cover is similar to the cover of Vincebus Eruptum by Blue Cheer.[3] The cover of the vinyl release is a parody of The Who's Odds & Sods album. Rather than the band's helmets reading "R O C K," they spelled out "F U C K"; this did not stop the album cover from being advertised on billboards in Japan.[5]
