About
Black Ops Zombie Music refers to music cues from the "zombie" mode of the video game Call of Duty: Black Ops which were used in shitpost videos in January of 2018.
Origin
Call of Duty: Black Ops was released on November 9th, 2010. The game features a "Zombie" mode in which the players play co-op and fight zombies (example of the music for the mode shown below).
In January of 2018, shitposts using specific moments from the mode's music began appearing on YouTube. One of the earliest known videos to feature the music in a shitpost-context was posted January 9th, 2018 by YouTube user crunch_memes, gaining over 9,700 views (shown below).
Spread
By January 13th, enough videos had been created that YouTube user SUCC MY MEME REBORN uploaded a compilation of videos created with the music (shown below).
A popular trope with the early edits of the meme was to have it feature Peter Griffin from Family Guy. On January 18th, YouTuber Peter Parker Cries uploaded a variation featuring Griffin that gained over 6,300 views (shown below, left). Another variation uploaded by Max from Rust that featured a 3D-rendering of Griffin gained over 3,200 views (shown below, right).
Other pieces of pop culture used with the meme include Spongebob Squarepants and Monsters vs. Aliens. An inquiry about the memes was posted to /r/OutOfTheLoop[1] on January 30th, 2018.
