Transcription

In popular culture

The single was released three times as a single before it gained the attention of Mike Judge and its video was aired on Beavis and Butt-head in 1993.[5] The popularity of the single resulted in White Zombie's first Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance later that year. In May 2006, the song was ranked number 32 on VH1's list, '40 Greatest Metal Songs'.[6]

A mix of the song was used by Extreme Championship Wrestling for their weekend syndicated show from 1994–1997.

The song was used to introduce Puck in the original broadcast of the 1994 season of The Real World: San Francisco.[7]

The song was featured on the 2005 video game Guitar Hero as a cover version performed by WaveGroup.

The song was used in the 2007 movie, Wild Hogs, starring Tim Allen, John Travolta, Martin Lawrence, and William H. Macy.

Music video

The song's music video gained significant airplay on MTV. This helped greatly to increase the band's popularity especially after having been played during the MTV animated series Beavis and Butt-head on the episode "Yogurt's Cool". The video was directed by Juliet Cuming and features the band playing the song out in a desert with dancers and monsters. According to Rob, it is the lowest budgeted music video released by the band.[8]
