Mockingbird Lane - 2003 Demo
Mockingbird Lane are a death-rock/horror-punk band from Oklahoma. The first thing I think of when I hear them is the part on Return of the living dead where the rain is falling and the zombies start digging their way up out of the ground, i love that part…the way the music sounds, the visuals attached to it create a feeling of dark excitement. If i'm walking through a graveyard with an ipod/PCD, and I do still do that to relax, Mockingbird Lane make an excellent soundtrack for doing so. (Duvy)

Review from Horror Rock Bass
"THE HORROR OF IT ALL: Volume 1"
World Horror Network Compilation
Reviewed By: A.P. Morbid
Website: http://horrorrockbass.cjb.net
E-Mail: AP@horrorrockbass.cjb.net
Before I type one single word about the compilation, I'd like to let everyone know how much respect and gratitude I have for Shane Diablo (Meatwhistle) for making such an effort to unify our scene and get it noticed. This gratitude and respect is extended to the ENTIRE World Horror Network.
I promise you that nothing I say in this review will do any of the songs or the artists justice. For those of you who don't know, I run and moderate Horror Rock Bass, so I've spent a lot of time emersing myself in things that are well written and pleasing to my ear. As a musician, your ear is the most important organ you have. That little bit of information should be your only indication as to why I enjoyed this compilation so much. If it wasn't for the actually GOOD music put on this compilation that was well written and cared for by the artists, it's for the energy spent on each of these recordings by the artists. Calabrese, Dead on Revival, Monster Squad, TFMU, Creepersin, Horror of 59, Ecto-1, Left For Dead, Sugarpuss, Fuse, the Corpsemaker, Saturday Nite Shockers, Mockingbird Lane, the Abominations, Others, DieMonsterDie, The Devil Bats, and last but not least: The Afterdarks, all put forth an effort that no scene has today. Rock is a joke, punk is a fashion statement to be sold to impressionable young kids, Rap is no longer about Urban Strife but round-about financial security, and those scenes that do stick to their principles are deemed as lost causes. As much as I hate to dissappoint; We REFUSE to stop watching Horror Movies and Drawing inspiration from them, and We REFUSE to ever die (That would just shit on every Romero movie in existance, wouldn't it?)
The Million Dollar question is: Is it worth my ten bucks? Music this good deserves 20, but the World Horror Network are good guys and thats why it's only priced at 10. They don't even charge you shipping and handling! There was one 6 song Horror Demo, and I won't mention it's name, (but I'll give you a clue: W_b _f Dh_rm_) that was priced at 19 something, and this is a whole 20 song compilation for 10 bucks. Yes, it's worth it.

Review from Gorehound #3
Mockingbird Lane
2003 Demo
OK, we have a five song demo here that is pretty damned cool. My favorite track is probably Wolfshead but they are all good. I could have done without the acoustic version of Taken Under, but that's just a matter of taste, I'm just not a fan of acoustic songs, if you are then you'll probably like it. The singer has a good voice and the songs while not studio quality are very listenable (I actually prefer to listen to stuff of this level of recording quality, makes it sound more raw). I understand that these guys are working on thier first release and I'll look forward to hearing it. I think most horror fans would probably get really into this, so I would try to get yourself a copy of this demo or ML's upcoming release. Really like the name too, it's obvious these guys have their heart in the right place (a jar in thier laboratory).

Review from Finding Datura #3
Mockingbird Lane - 2003 Demo
Horror punk is quickly becoming my newest guilty pleasure. But there is nothing to feel bad about in digging Mockingbird Lane. Unlike other horror punk bands, MBL is much less aggressive and considerably more melodic. While purist may not like their lack of violent trashing, it would be a crime to waste Christophe’s fantastic voice on undecipherable screams. There is an undeniable goth-rock influence on MBL and I think this only makes them more interesting and unique. It also makes their songwriting much more accessible to those of us who don’t really care for the Misfits. Oh, but if you like Glen and the boys, MBL dish up a pretty sweet cover of “She.” But the real treat on this demo is the acoustic version of “Taken Under.” The distorted guitars and drums are replaced by acoustic guitar and the most perfectly subdued keyboards EVER. While I want MBL to keep rocking, I would kill to hear an all acoustic album from Christophe and company. (RM)
