2. I dunno, but I must say that Modest Mouse is one of those
rare bands that has actually improved by selling out; their new stuff is great.

4. hmm
as a severely dated (in the sense of how long i've been listening to them) modest mouse fan, i will not disagree that their new stuff is great...but improved?...moon and antarctica maybe...but give me lonesome crowded west anyday

7. I've had friends try to push Modest Mouse on me for years...
But this is the first time I actaully like them without having to be coerced. Objectively, their rhythm section has tightened up and the songwriter's sense of structure doesn't wander like it used to, and vocally, they've gotten immeasurably better.

I think the demands of the marketplace, ironically enough, have improved their obverall sound and approach.

10. yeah
i do think that with all that extra label money they can use MUCH better equipment, so in the technical sense i think their albums have gotten better...the production on moon and antarctica was insane...

i think most long time fans will probably share the same opinion as me...but nonetheless, glad that you like them now! they deserve every fan they get.

6. Colin Quinn can LICK MY NUTSACK.
SO GLAD he got canceled. Stupid right-wing piece of shit.

He's just like Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Thinks he's smart.
