It’s no secret that Izzy Reign is a big fan of the spooky season, with her cover of “This Is Halloween” from The Nightmare Before Christmas being one of the most used versions on Tik Tok. She’s back, diving into the darkness full force with a metal cover of Rob Zombie’s iconic single “Living Dead Girl.”
Channeling the raw energy of the original while she brings her own sound to the mix Izzy Reign’s cover has resulted in a version that is both a tribute and a reinvention. “We wanted to create a cover that still paid tribute to the original. The Original song is such an amazing work of art already that we didn’t want to do any more than bring our own elements to it to make it an IZZY REIGN version” explains Izzy Reign.
With synths, gritty guitars, pounding drums, and Izzy Reign’s powerful screaming vocals, the track captures the haunting energy of the original while adding new layers of intensity and depth. The cover stays true to the industrial and alternative metal roots of the original, while adding Izzy Reign’s signature intensity and haunting instrumentation elevate the cover, making it a standout homage to the original. The result is a fierce, high-energy rendition that will resonate with fans of both the original and those who love fresh takes on classic rock anthems.
Bold. Eclectic. Rebellious. Izzy Reign thrives on originality and thinking outside the box. Her music is nothing short of a reflection of this. She grew up singing to Alanis Morissette, Jewel, and Madonna. Inspired by Enter Shikari’s music video “Sorry You Are Not A Winner” and the musical stylings of Imogen Heap, Izzy took the plunge into the industry and played her first live show when she was 15 years old.
Since then she’s taken a deeper dive into production, songwriting and performing, working with a variety of artists that come through the production house she shares with producers Jon Eberhard (I Prevail, Skillet, Sleeping With Sirens) and Nick Matzkows (Wind Walkers, Until I Wake, ENMY, Attack! Attack!). Over the past four years she has released a myriad of covers, originals and music videos on her YouTube channel racking up millions of views. She has received notable attention for her popular The Nightmare Before Christmas cover of “This Is Halloween”, which has over 10 million streams across Spotify and YouTube along with 73,200 videos using the sound on TikTok.
In 2023 Izzy came to the attention of the US-based record label FiXT, through the discovery of her independent release, “Broken By Design”, which showcased a new edge to Izzy’s sound. Signing on for a multi-album deal, Izzy Reign is now set to release her debut album with FiXT in 2025.
“Living Dead Girl” is available now on all platforms from FiXT.
