"Electric Head Pt. 2 (The Ecstasy)" is the second official single from the Astro-Creep:2000 album by the heavy metal band White Zombie. A remix version of this song was the first track on the 1996 album Supersexy Swingin' Sounds .
The song contains audio samples taken from the 1971 movie Shaft . In the song,the lyrics "A fistful of hair and a splinter in the mind" could possibly refer to Lucio Fulci's 1979 film Zombie in which a zombie grabs a woman by the hair and pulls her through a closet,causing a shard of wood to pierce her eye.
The music video,the second music video made for a song from the Astro Creep album,shows the band playing in a circus of freaks,clowns and monsters while riding on a truck. [1]
