I can feel what you're going with, but when I looked over the majority of those drawings, I'd see bits and pieces that I liked, and then a lot of stuff that seemed unnecessary. It either looked like you were running out of seem half way through, or that you lacked interest after you completed the focal area of the piece.
They're good in the sense that it shows that you can brainstorm and pump out tons of ideas one after the next, but as far as publishing this stuff, I'd suggest holding onto those as concept work and collaborating all of the good parts into one or two great works of art.
This is more of a personal taste, but when working around the genre of macabre art and the other sorts of stuff usually reflected in those genres of music, I'd recommend steering away from using light pencils. I'd even venture to say that you should stick to inks exclusively, using varieties of line work and hatching as the methods for making things pop.
The one I truly liked was the one with the hummingbird, which was probably also one of the simplest. You don't have to keep adding more if you don't want to, and if you have an artistic flair that you regret, you can always crop it away. I don't need to see every branch to know that I'm looking at a tree; I don't need to see fifty pines to know I'm looking at a forest, etc.
