About the Creator
YUNGBLUDVEVO is the official YouTube channel for YUNGBLUD (Dom Harrison), a Grammy-nominated British rock artist known for his raw, energetic style blending punk, pop, and alternative rock with themes of mental health and rebellion. His credibility stems from chart-topping albums like the Grammy-nominated 'Idols' and high-profile collaborations with legends like The Smashing Pumpkins and Aerosmith. The channel delivers official music videos with cinematic production, amassing millions of views through authentic, youth-driven content.
What's This About?
This official music video features a reimagined, darker version of YUNGBLUD's Grammy-nominated song 'Zombie' featuring The Smashing Pumpkins, directed by Charlie Sarsfield with creative input from Jesse Jo Stark and YUNGBLUD. The lyrics explore profound themes of emotional pain, self-doubt, mental fragility ('looking like a zombie'), and the fear of rejection amid a indifferent world, underscored by imagery of isolation and existential longing. Released as part of YUNGBLUD's 'Idols' album era, it stems from a personal inspiration drawn from The Smashing Pumpkins' sound, particularly Billy Corgan's mentorship and their shared performance at the Black Sabbath farewell concert.
🔥Why It's Trending
The video dropped on January 2, 2026, just days ago, sparking buzz as a fresh collaboration between rising star YUNGBLUD and alt-rock icons The Smashing Pumpkins, building on their mutual admiration highlighted in recent interviews and podcasts. Its timing aligns with YUNGBLUD's landmark 2025 chart success and Grammy buzz for 'Zombie,' amplified by fan excitement over Billy Corgan's involvement and the song's evolution into a heavier rock rendition. Music outlets like Loudwire and Louder Than War are covering it widely, fueling shares across social platforms.

Avengers: Doomsday – Loki Trailer | Loki Sees the Multiverse
This is a fan-made AI concept created by me, inspired by Avengers: Doomsday. It is a fictional interpretation and not an official trailer/scene/clip. 👉 X-Men Trailer: https://youtu.be/rAjvLssfmPU 👉 Thor begs Odin: https://youtu.be/J3yXj8-CDrI If you use any part of this video in your edits, please credit my channel. Please note that reuploads of this video without permission are not allowed. Loki sits upon his throne when the world around him fractures without warning. Visions begin to bleed into reality. First, Steve Rogers appears, worn and resolute, carrying the weight of impossible choices. Then his brother, Thor, kneeling in silence, praying to their father not for victory, but for peace. A stranger follows. Professor X. A mind Loki has never touched, yet one that feels ancient and burdened. The image shifts again. The shattered helmet of Kang lies abandoned, defeated, erased by time itself. Then comes the moment Loki cannot look away from. A battlefield in ruins. Every hero fallen. Every stand lost. At the center of it all stands Doctor Doom. The darkness does not end with the vision. Doom turns, not toward the fallen, but toward Loki. He feels him. The throne snaps back into place. The visions vanish. Loki is alone once more. But the question remains. Did Loki witness futures yet to come, or did he glimpse a nightmare already set in motion? And worse still, did Doom truly sense him watching? #AvengersDoomsday #Loki #DrDoom #XMen #Avengers #DoomsdayTrailer #Marvel
