"Walking Dead" comes from Shifting Gears, the debut studio album by American DJ Z-Trip, released through Hollywood Records in 2005. Z-Trip produced it and wrote it with Chester Bennington, one name on a long guest list that also runs through Chuck D, Lyrics Born, Murs, Busdriver and Aceyalone, and Jay Baumgardner handled the mix.
The album is a valentine to old-school hip-hop, and critics warmed to it. Rolling Stone gave it four stars out of five and singled out the sharp sampling and jazzy scratches, while AllMusic heard a nostalgic trip back to the days when breakdancers and b-boys ran things.
