Modest Mouse
I never really looked into these guys much. I originally wrote them off as Pixies imposters. But after reading Johnny Marrs book and realizing that he had a stint in the band I decided to check em out and they're actually pretty rad.
What do you guys think? This videos fucking sweeeeet |

Yeah, it's almost like you shouldn't walk around life misinformed and under wrong assumptions.

I'm very open minded and check out a lot of new music, it's just most of the time I'm very underwhelmed.

In his defense he checked out Heavy Rocks Akuma No Uta and Attn Plz. Also he went to a concert where he thought Wata played bass and Takeshi was a "chick".
I have nothing else to say in his defense. |

Like, fuck. I tell you you'd like Third Eye Blind, and you're all "Naw, I downloaded their worst album, the one that NOBODY in their fanbase likes, and decided I'm good."

It's more a collection of odds and ends than a legit album, but it definitely contains some of their best work.
This one's a personal favorite: |

I never thought Takeshi was a chick. I simply thought Wata was the bassist.

it was put out in this sweet spot between LCW and M&A where they were probably already signed to the major, so the odds & ends were remixed or something to all have that sweet, sweet M&A quality, but the performances have the grit of LCW & Long Drive stuff not too mention, the songs at their core are pretty much all top-quality Mouse |
