Modest Mouse

sooooo... last night was the mistletoe jam sponsored by 99x atlanta radio station. and the lineup was pretty amazing..... the silversun pickups, the shins, silverchair, and modest mouse. i went with my friends molly, katie, kyle and bryan. also, we met up with pam (bohemianlullaby) and her boyfriend mikey. i was glad we met up with pam and mikey, cause they got there two hours before we did, and we sneakily cut in line with them. now, normally i dont condone that type of b...

Twenty years ago, The Smiths and R.E.M. were just two bands that happen to come along and in part define a decade. Guitarist Johnny Mar, once with the Smiths and now with Modest Mouse, recently weighed in on his current group's upcoming tour with the legendary Athens, Georgia trio in the US this May. R.E.M. is in promotion mode for their April 1 release of Accelerate, Marr says the prospect of joining forces with them is an exciting one: Will they be able to define a ... MORE

May 31, I had the pleasure of attending the R.E.M and Modest Mouse concert @ The Greek Theater in Berkeley. (Super cool venue by the way.) Opening was The National of which I hadn't really heard a whole lot from them. They kinda had a Coldplay feel to them. But I can tell you the one thing I was most impressed by was the instrumentals more than anything. Although I am a sucker for great musical talent. I think I counted a total of 8 people on stage all playing a differen... MORE

Alright. I realized this a while back and figured i'd share on my post. Why? Who knows. Partly cause i think its freakin awesome and partly cause its late. i got a tattoo in february. I love it. I had put some thought into it and it has a meaningful story behind it. (people, on the other hand, look at me like i'm retarded when i tell them the meaning)The tattoo is my own personal independence day. I got a Roman Numeral tattooed on my forearm. well i was listening to Modest... MORE

It was twelve or so hours after submitting this post that I finally came to. I hadn't been to sleep, and I hadn't blacked out, at least, I hadn't blacked out entirely: I still remembered what I had done, I just couldn't understand why. I was sixty miles from home doing eighty miles an hour with a streak of blood colored vomit plastered down the driver's side and a small pond on the passenger's side, the only thing separating me from the Federal Correctional Instituti...

Modest Mouse is heading out on a late spring/summer tour with REM and the National. (On the indie front this tour almost compares with the mini traveling festival that is Kanye West's tour.) Just thought I'd fill you in. There isn't any new album they're plugging. Modest Mouse are still touring in support of We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.

Dissent TV: Tony with Issac and Johnny from Modest Mouse on ShredOrDie.com Tony Hawk interviews Isaac Brock and Johnny Marr before the start of one of Modest Mouse's shows. Hawk seems like a natural at the music journalist racket. Move over Lester Bangs!

Modest Mouse just released a animated and psychedelic new video for their song "Fly Trapped In A Jar". The video was directed by The Saline Project and it looks like the band is performing in a bubblegum world somewhere in Second Life. "Fly Trapped In A Jar" is off their 2007 release, We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.

Artist: Modest Mouse

This post isnt for you. Cuase its a modest mouse song a B-side track. Called edit the sad parts. Truely amazing. Modest mouse is god.

  Going to the Fiber Festival in Benicassim by myself was a bit of a trial. I wouldn't have made it through without Modest Mouse, particularly this song. It lets you muck about romanticizing loneliness and destitution for just long enough, but not too long, before erupting into a brazen raucous of self-aggrandizement at your own absurdity. You simply can't sing along to 'He moved like crisco disco' and take yourself seriously!   It's all nice! It's all nice! It's al... MORE
