    Modest Mouse apprecation thread

    One of the best bands going, hands down. Go see them live if you get the chance.

    We Were Dead wasn't nearly as good as their previous stuff, but they're a great band nonetheless.

    Dramamine came on Pandora a couple days ago, and I'd forgotten how much I dig that song. Went straight to Google and found the Seth segment from Focused, then loaded the iPod back up.
    Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.

    I remember seeing these guys more than a couple times back when they were a local band in WA. Interstate 8 and the Fruit that Ate Itself. Great band with a unique sound.

    Good chill music, they're probably the best thing that has come out of my hometown of Issaquah.

    Word. The Issaquah skate park is where I first heard of them, they were passing out flyers for a show. Did some shrooms and had a great time. Here\\\'s my favorite Ugly Casanova song

    (I also interviewed Jonny Marr once, too, but I'm not sure if I ever transcribed/published that one).

    Bumping this thread cuz I'm on a MM binge at the moment.

    For the youngsters like me out there who didn't get to see them when they were just a three-piece act:

    I saw Modest Mouse in 2003 in AC, it was a pretty small venue and they put on a great show. Great tunes for boozing or studying or pretty much anything else really.
