New World (The Zombies album)

New World is the third album by the Zombies, recorded in 1990. Several tracks were released in Europe in 1990 on an album called The Return of the Zombies. This album features numerous tracks from that release that were remixed or re-recorded, as well as new tracks, and was released in April 1991. According to the liner notes, it was recorded primarily to protect the name of the band in response to numerous groups of imposters that were then touring the US. Original members Rod Argent and Paul Atkinson were unavailable to join them for more than one track each.
