It's an open door to some orgasmic music, music that was made in the way Tarantino makes movies, millions of ideas put together reminding of what we love in music.
- Little Johnny Jet
The Santa Fe New Mexican
Imagine a blend of The Cramps, Joy Division, Tom Waits, and Ligntnin' Hopkins. Now drench it in blood and make it play a theremin - extremely well - at gunpoint. 'Nuff said.
- Rob DeWalt
San Francisco Bay Guardian
. . . combine surf rock, punk, and the Doors, topping it off with an eerie dosage of Ennio Morricone–inspired gunfight licks that fit seamlessly into the band's tales of desert-highway depravity
Phoenix New Times
The Mission Creeps: Oh, the horror-surf!
. . . this quartet oozes out reverb-heavy, slinky music in the fine tradition of “horror-surf” bands like The Cramps and the HorrorPops, creating a creepy, ambient vibe that would make the band’s songs at home on any Quinten Tarantino or neo-noir film soundtrack.
- Niki D'Andrea
Eugene Weekly (OR)
Case of the Zombies
. . . . James Arrr has the perfect voice for this genre of music — a little Elvis mixed with some Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash.
Tucson Weekly
Their haunted shed includes handy tools such as reverb-rich surf music, Phil Spector's wall of sound, R&B rave-ups, blues, honky-tonk, garage rock, psychedelia, exotica, sci-fi soundtrack music, sea chanteys and, well, punk and rockabilly.
- Gene Armstrong
The Mission Creeps' songs are in The Graves - directed by Brian Pulido (Lady Death) and starring Tony Todd (Candy Man, Final Destination) and Bill Moseley (Devil's Rejects)

Oh thanks for the luv. I really am glad you guys invited me and my friends. My other friend Brian said he would love for you guys to play with his daughter band. I'll have to hook you up with his contact info. OK.
I took almost 250 pics that day so I'm still going though them all. Gotta balance the ying/yang cause this hurricane is great at kicking her own butt! I just spent time with my daughter on Sunday, it was her actually b-day.
You guys need to put that Peter Murphy pic on your myspace!!!
Now more than ever the All Souls Procession Weekend is in need of financial support. MMOS has managed to facilitate and produce many aspects of the ASP Weekend, but through sheer volunteerism, private donations and grant monies have we managed to put on an event-spectacle that for its scope, is ironically produced on a shoe-string budget. This year's events are already budgeted at $60,000. ANY amount helps!
