they rocked it out......I've never seen the carson daly show. All I have to say about him is that he has to be one of the worst hosts ever. And that's without being biased.

Ewwww I hope they don't normally sound that bad. I hate the way that guy sings...and their song is a little repetative and bland. Its like they try to add layers and interesting parts...but they just aren't good enough to do it so it just sounds even worse.

Is this song fairly representational of their "sound'?

I had heard a song or two and disliked it but I had no idea they would sound that bad.

If you mean a retarded kid singing Pixies songs... yes.

And I set my VCR's timer too late. I missed it completely. :(

Anyone have a link where I can dl another song or two of theirs? I want to hear a little more so I feel better about hating them so much.

I'm a big Modest Mouse fan but that performance didn't really do much for me either. I'd reccomend listening to some stuff off of the Lonesome Crowded West.

man. that song is disappointing too. i liked Ugly Casanova but maybe they're getting past their prime. this is the only time i've heard Bury Me With it but it seems like a bad attempt at rewriting the Pixies with a little bit of "danciness." and it repeats itself too much. and it's just well, not as good as what they used to put out. i'll reserve judgment until i hear the album, but i'm not expecting much.

The album will begin the downward spiral of their career.

Sad, but most likely true.

At least, as low as they are, it won't be that far.

Eh. I still like it. I don't care. I never really expected it to be as good as TM&A because, well. It's a bit hard to do something that good again. The fact that they did it twice was good enough for me. They peaked, big deal. It doesn't seem that much worse so far.

Float On was great, this was pretty good and might grow on me, and that other new song that was just posted was okay, but not really special. It's just too soon really to tell at the moment.

their performance on the daly show was quite bland and i'm actually thinking that the upcoming album will be equally as bland. but that shouldn't stop you from checking out older modest mouse stuff. i always suggest downloading "dark centre of the universe" to people wanting to check out mm for the first time. for some reason all the non mm fans that i know even adore the song. you also might want to give "doin' the cockroach" and "cowboy dan" a try. or i dunno. my opinion probably sucks and you should ask rp.

they just picked the wrong song to play.

Modest Mouse concerts are really a gamble. half time they are awesome, halftime, it's like what you guys saw. But they are a great band.

I thought the song was pretty good, although I'm a Modest Mouse fanboy and the band can do no wrong in my eyes.

I loved the shots of the crowd trying to "get into it".

I still think that the singer sounds like Les Claypool at times.

They had some pretty hip dance moves.

Do I just search for your name in the 'file search' tab?

right click in the top right window where ther user list is. click add user then type his name in. when he is online you'll be able to search through his shared files. he's not online at the moment though.
