Zombie Nation

Stadium techno chant

Zombie Nation refers to the 1999 electronic track "Kernkraft 400" by German artist Florian Senkbeil, which became ubiquitous at sporting events worldwide—its synth riff instantly recognizable as stadium anthem fodder: The crowd went wild when they played Zombie Nation.

The term sometimes describes a population seen as mindless or unthinking, shuffling through life without awareness: We've become a zombie nation, glued to our phones.
