Zombie by The Cranberries: Guitar, Bass & Songwriting Insights

"Zombie" by The Cranberries, released in 1994, features a distinctive driving rhythm created by drummer Fergal Lawler. The song's powerful bassline, played by Mike Hogan, adds depth to the track. Guitarist Noel Hogan's use of heavy distortion and arpeggiated chords gives the song its signature sound. Dolores O'Riordan's haunting vocals and poignant lyrics about the Troubles in Northern Ireland make "Zombie" a standout in the band's discography.

I think the harmony of the Chords Cmaj7, G6 and D/F# is perfectly.
