Mockba

Blood drips from a self inflicted wound on John Lenningrads forehead. A kangaroo-suited Paul McCarthy hurls fistfuls of propaganda at the surging crowd. A Roland amp shrieks as George TseTung grinds a beer bottle into his guitar. Pinko Starr systematically pounds another broken shard from his cymbals. THIS is Mockba!!



The Revolution Lives Comrades! The message of the Workers Revolution is now being spread through most deceptive means, American rock music. Formed in 2001, under the shadows of burnt-out factories, Mockba rallies the frustrated un- and underemployed.



CHEAP VODKA REVIEWS:



from this month's MAXIMUM ROCK-N-ROLL:



Caught somewhere between the art damage era of choppy

'79 post punk and the blown out garage of right now

Chicago comes Buffalo's MOCKBA. Cheap organ effects

and cold WIRE-influenced chops all driven with the

rocked out energy of the BLOODY HOLLIES. Paranoid punk

that keeps trying to hammer that square peg in to the

round hole, not giving two flying fucks about cozy

little genres and scenes wanting to be the next big

thing. I can dig. These cats have the cold wave rocked

out, instigated their own little punk rock culture

clash and pulled off one this months finest CDs. (SD)



MOCKBA - Cheap Vodka:



http://www.fullfrontalrecordings.co.uk



This Garage Punk influenced band arent bad at all. Theyve got a pretty neat sound which fits in well with that scene and with tracks like Cheap Vodka, The Kommunist Kangaroo Manifesto and Political Fac(shion)ism you cant go wrong here. Like most Nicontine releases theres twelve songs on here and they really do deserve a listen. While so many Garage Punk bands have over produced their sound I can testisfy that Mockba have it spot on. I rate this and you will too! (Nicotine) 8.5/10

And again Nicotine Rec. check out this label dudes!!! MOCKBA seems to be influenced by the likes such as THE CRAMPS, JOY DIVISION, SONIC YOUTH MOCKBA kicks for sure your face with their music. The classic rawk instruments are added with various keyboard sounds. The MOCKBA dudes is another band which puts the good music from the 80s mixed with styles like surf, punk,in the new millenium. Great stuff!!!!I don´t know if this band is joking with this image or if it is ment serious? Sorry for this question but sometimes artists got some kind of sick humor If it is serious I´ll be the first in line to spread the workers revolution. Brothers and sisters we have to fight against globalism cause the only aim from the global players is to earn more and more and more and moreso stand up you only live once in this world. MOCKBA got the definitive soundtrack for the revolution, ´cause if the revolution isn´t danceable it´s not my revolution!!!!"(MS Daredevil)
