Love Zombies is the second album by The Monochrome Set.
Trouser Press described the album as possessing "a smoother and more accessible sound" than the band's debut, "Strange Boutique", praising its melodies, as well as "lyrics that take sharp, light jabs at emotional traps and social mores."[1]
The liner notes on the front of the original LP sleeve described the album as:
"An unashamed look at their weird lives.....their wild loves...in a jazz-haunted, desire-tormented world."
On the back of the sleeve was written:
"Once this record is in the house two's company and four is a party. Roll back the carpet, switch out the light and dance in the glow of the firelight as 'The Monochrome Set' provide your very own music far from the maddening crowd of the dance halls."
The cover of the album featured an illustration of a female nude by Gill Thompson. The original LP also included a lithograph of three nude sketches by Thompson.
