Thunder Bay, Ontario intrumental hard rock powerhouse Mocking Modesty will release their 1st cd "Ashes Of Berlin" in Summer 2010. Check out the new song "Public Display Of Rejection". The song delivers a massive wallop of scorched-out rock. The cd exhibits the sound of a band injecting a slammin' groove into its wide musical palette. The music dovetails its blend of raw-power, tripped out rock and cascading guitars on songs like " Way Too Much Information" and "All Bets Are Off", with the more deliberate side of the band emerging in the bruising "Counting Back From 99" and the slow-boil of "Comatose Overdose".Band/artist history
