WHEN U R READING THIS DONT STOP OR SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN MY NAME IS SUMMER I AM 15 YEARS OLD i have BLONDE HAIR , SCARS no NOSE OR EARS I AM DEAD IF U DONT COPY THIS JUS LIKE FROM THE RING COPY N POST THIS ON 5 MORE SITES OR I WILL APPEAR ONE CREEPY NIGHT WEN UR NOT ExPECTING IT BY YOUR BED WITH A NIFE AND KILL U THIS IS NO JOKE SUMMET ING GOOD WILL HAPPEN TO U IF YOU POST THIS ON 5 MORE FLASH BOXES
what do you think of the music? great song, hey, one shouldnt be afraid of the dead, they cant hurt you, its the living we need to worry about, death is the only certainty for all living things,not to be feared, but welcomed , free from this mortal coil, bad things happen all the time, like immature people thinking they are scary ,usuall ythey are just scared of life, my advice? try getting one, ie a life.
The cd is great. sounds a little different than older stuff but w/e its been 14 years...its gonna happen. Listen to the cd a few times and forget that its a new cd. People get so hypercritical about new cd's that they dont enjoy them as they should. Most if not all of the great aspects of modest mouse are present in the cd somewhere. All great songs, although fire it up seems like their float on of yesteralbum. great job MM.
Both Franz Ferdinand and Modest Mouse are awesome! I don't see why you have to argue about it if you like them both. They both are awesome, just like it for what it is. Idiots.
Any real M_M fan will know that WWDBTSES is a different musical conversation with their fans. We need to stop comparing to Franz Ferdinand and let them speak to us.
fuck I like old modest mouse shit, they had great songs like gravity rides everything, talking shit about a pretty sunset, black cadillacs, ocean breathes salty. but this song fucking sucks. they got too lame and poppy.
theres one problem with your "franz ferdinand" theory.. FRANZ FERDINAND FUCKING SUCKS!!! in no way shape or form does modest mouse sound has sounded, or will sound anything like that shitty excuse for a band.. this band has been around for fucking 14 years!!! they have always made catchy music, yet have always made shit that other people will likely hate.. just listen to "this is a long drive".. i honestly dont understand where any of these haters are coming from.. get a fucking grip..
I'm not saying don't listen to the new stuff, we all have our opinions; I just know that I hate it. It almost seems like they forgot about all of their other albums. Whatever Isaac Brock doesn't care, he has a grip of money now, he use to say that he'd never write songs for other people and that he'd do it strictly for himself. Well good luck with that sellout, start writing new creative songs and not Franz Ferdinand covers.
It might be a slim possibility, but I hear that Incubus actually announced once on stage that they were ashamed of their old music. People grow up, change, get older. Their views and wants move on too. Who gives a shit what YOU want from a band, art is inherently selfish, and they'll be making it for themselves no matter who chooses to listen, or why.
this one is for "jcscott125" an old school modest mouse fan, tell me the name of the person who does most of the guest vocals on almost all the albums.
M.M. use to be good, they are just trying to do what most bands are doing today, it seems like they sold their souls to Franz Ferdinand's guitar riffs and some of their keyboards. I've been listening to Modest Mouse since I was in 5th grade and I'm a senior this year; let's just say I'm dissappointed in them. Go to their shows and yell an old song, he cusses you out or just plain out says fuck no, or "yeah I wrote that song but I'm not gonna play it."
Why does everybody hate Good news so much? I really do like it... Certainly no Moon and Antarctica or Lonesome Crowded West, but it's very good. The new one is really good as well. I love the James Mercer songs.
i'll make my statement just as everyone else has. i will always have this place in my heart for brock's music. sure, the sound has grown up and turned into something i am not sure i can relate to anymore... but here we go, you know.
i'm buying this album for my own pathetic comfort.
I wasn't bitching, Modest Mouse is a great band. I was just commenting to the song, and--- oh wait! Isn't that the whole point of COMMENTS? YouTube has made a wonderful capability of voicing your opinions through comments, so I chose to do so.
yeah i dont understand why everyone is bitching. This song is not amazing compared to others but its still great. People need to settle down and listen. Sure "Old Mouse" in my opinion has better stuff but i still love the music thats new. "SO FUCK OFF AND ENJOY THE SHOW" ~ isaac brock
Lonesome Crowded West will always be their best in my opinion. But now they are popular and I really don't expect the same soul searching epics they used to put out. They still kick major ass, just in a different way I think. Brock has never been able to sing for shit, part of what made it all so poignant was the roughness of his voice.
mweh hopefully.... their populairty will drop .... and eventually itll be back to better music ...
haha what wishful thinking. Stil i never really see why people whine ... (not that you are) when bands change their sound.... its not like you cant still listen to their old stuff.... and if thats not enough for people i mean ... MM have had a lot of albums ... those fans should ..die? lol
Marr is a fantastic addition to Modest Mouse. I mean the sound of the smiths adds in really smoothly. Personally I think Modest Mouse has yet to put out a bad album.
they've already put out a bad album...its called "we were dead before the ship even sank" and its all shitted up by Marr's generic 80's guitar playing
Pff, whatever mate. Marr's playing saves the record, if anything. If there's one thing that shits it up it's Brock's wonderfully drunken slurs and the fact he can't really sing any more.
I wonder how many of these assholes complaining that the sound has changed really know who Johnny Marr is? The addition of a guitarist like Marr is going to have an impact on a bands sound, weither the "hardcore" fans like it or not. Personally I can hear Marr's influence, and it is fantastic.
I've been listening to Modest Mouse since maybe ... 2000, 2001. If you take the time to listen to all albums, you will really appreciate Issac's musical genius. His music different than all the other shitty stuff you hear on the radio, with the same beats and the rap artists wanting sex and drugs and Hennessey. The end.
dude, they haven't sold out, and who ever said that should basically die. but their new song is actually pretty good and i can't wait to get the rest of the CD.
dude modest mouse is godly. Issac is a genius. Float on didnt mean they sold out.. its just a really good uplifting song.. thats why the majority of people liked it. a majority of people dont like songs that have to do with death and destruction.. get over the fact that modest mouse isnt sold out. and they rule, end.
Because you have opened this... you will get kissed on the nearest possible Friday by the love of your life... if you don't break the chain. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. However, if you don't send this to at least 10 people by the stroke of midnight tonight you will be forever cursed in love. Just copy and paste this.. Good Luck!
terrible. modest mouse did sell out no matter what anyone says they did it and they've made terrible music over the past 2 years and probably won't ever make a decent album again...at least we have the old cds
i worded that wrong.. based on one fucking song from one fucking album that you heard on tv.. point is.. dont talk shit about something you can't understand..
i take that back, go get a fat sack of chronic, puff it, then put on their first album.. then learn to shut your stupid ass mouths before you make judgements based on band thats been around for 14 years and is still making amazing music.. fucking chumps.
oh yeah built to spill is amazing, and you can see the similarities between the two bands, though they are completely different.. thats what i think is amazing.. so haters.. quit talking shit.. go listen to beach side property then we'll see how much shit your talking
it's funny how people can blindly call modest mouse sellouts when they haven't even heard their early albums. this band didn't jus appear out of nowhere like the majority of bands these days to try and make a fast buck.. why can't people just LISTEN to the music without any outside influences on what you should think about it.. just cause the music sounds good doesnt mean it's "fake" or a "gimmick".. take a listen to some older albums before you come on here talking shit
Unreal modest mouse has been around since nirvana making great music also isaac brock's label has one of the best songwriters today aka mason jennings these guys are all about the unsung hero so they got a video on mtv who cares their music is alot better than the other crap out there and if you look into the hisory you'll also discover other great bands they toured/worked with - built to spill neutral milk hotel both indie bands that rock which you'll never see on mtv - vini vidi vici
yeah i'd agree..arcade fire was being played on the radio frequently, on many stations, and their album was in no way mainstream...i mean, pitchfork gave it a 9.7/10. The fact that isaac is now experimenting with trumpets and a little "disco" beats seems to imply that he's still willing to try new things. Anyways, how can it be bad when they've got johnny marr?? the SMITHS guitarist?!? I hope he meshes well with the old modest mouse sound, sounds good so far
I liked them at 11. I think... It's hard to remember when I first heard of them. though it's weird, after hearing some of their older songs, I feel like I've heard them before when I was little or something.
Bought "Lonesome Crowded West" when it was new and have loved everything since. I call "Float On" their Happy Song. I love them and don't care who thinks they sold out or whatever. If you don't like 'em, doesn't affect me at all.
eh assholes if you dont have anything nice to say then dont say it. simple as that. no using "your own personal opinion" bullshit just shut your mouth is you dont have anything nice to say...
Better than Float On, which was awful. MM were my fave band from around '96 up until they broke my heart with that antarctica cd, which sounded to me like an almost song-for-song commercial re-vamping of the lonesome crowded west masterpiece theyve had a good song here and there the last several years but I guess Isaac really is the bastard son of Frank Black predestined to create his best work in his youth They're still a wholly decent band, which is more than you can ask for these days.
Im gonna go ahead and say that they sold out. I have been going to their shows sense 2000, and can honestly say that they have definitely gotten less expiremental and more mainstream. Listen to what you want, but when a band as respected as modest mouse changes their music so drastically, there are going to be a lot of loyal fans that do not agree. still sounds better than half the shi t on the radio, but doesn't compare to their older stuff.
someone who has been going to the shows since 2000 has no right calling the band a sellout. You didn't even see them until they crossed over to a major label. You didn't even hear them until they "sold out". So shut your mouth fool...
I was 11 years old in 96, im sure youll find some way to attack me for being too young, but i dont know of any 11 years olds who liked modest mouse. Im sure there will be plenty who like the new album though
Thanks M3rcenary ....at lest one good thing came out of newbes listening to Modest Mouse!..All you losers saying "i've been a fan of Modest Mouse for years and years and all they are doing now is selling out", Well you don't know anything. Sure, I've been a fan before float on but i don't think their selling out. And it really doesn't matter if you or I think their selling out. They are do want they want! Alway have been, alway will!!!!
Sounds good! I for one am glad they went more mainstream with float on playing on mtv. If I hadnt heard float on, I never couldve went out and bought GNFPWLBN, and then I never wouldve fallen in love and bought The moon and antartica, and dl their other songs.
It was a lot more fun when it was just the small few who knew of Modest Mouse. It made me feel that much more special, kind of like a hahahaha, i'm listening to this great music and you have no clue. But their music is still great, it's the evolution, every cd sounds different, thats what's so great about modest mouse, they delve into everything. It does still suck that their concerts will be filled with people who only know "Float On"
Im 32 and have been listening to MM since around 95-96 when I was working at a college radio station. I love going to shows and have people request old songs that hardly anyone there even knows...I met Isaac at the Black Cat in DC during their LCW tour and had a nice conversation with him him at the bar. Definitely a very unique and interesting person to have a conversation with. Although he wasnt as out there the time I chatted with Jeff Mangum! How many kids today even know who Jeff Mangum is?
hey. wahtever. fuck off. this is a good song. theyre not maintream and they wont be. they gained too much indie success. theyre not stupid. but the new guitarist was too much. this songs awesome.
I agree they are selling out...but come on they need some money. Plus we have to look on the bright side, it will greatly improve the tastes of the mainstream. Maybe modest mouse will make the radio worth listening to again :)
does it really matter if they are main stream, the song will still sound the same no matter what station its on. these lads deserve some good money! rock on
I can just see this being the next "Float On"... It's a good song but it bothers me. Please lord don't let them go downhill... I hope their album is like Moon & Antarctica or Long Drive.
fucktard. its not a disco song. i understand the guitar sounds could be misconstrued as appearing to almost be something somewhat nearly disco, but its NOT A FUCKING DISCO SONG, YOU COCK-HOBOKEN.
look, son, its not disco. disco rock maybe, but thats beside the point. whatever you want to call it is fine with me, im not saying the song is bad. and im certainly not crying, so go fuck elton john you cock-choke.
i like the song, but jeremiah and johnny are being as boring as fuck. they let jeremiah back in the band, and johnny in the band altogether, and you'd think they'd try to, let's say, not suck.

i worded that wrong.. based on one fucking song from one fucking album that you heard on tv.. point is.. dont talk shit about something you can't understand..
musicizgood 5 years ago
i take that back, go get a fat sack of chronic, puff it, then put on their first album.. then learn to shut your stupid ass mouths before you make judgements based on band thats been around for 14 years and is still making amazing music.. fucking chumps.
musicizgood 5 years ago
oh yeah built to spill is amazing, and you can see the similarities between the two bands, though they are completely different.. thats what i think is amazing.. so haters.. quit talking shit.. go listen to beach side property then we'll see how much shit your talking

it's funny how people can blindly call modest mouse sellouts when they haven't even heard their early albums. this band didn't jus appear out of nowhere like the majority of bands these days to try and make a fast buck.. why can't people just LISTEN to the music without any outside influences on what you should think about it.. just cause the music sounds good doesnt mean it's "fake" or a "gimmick".. take a listen to some older albums before you come on here talking shit

Unreal modest mouse has been around since nirvana making great music also isaac brock's label has one of the best songwriters today aka mason jennings these guys are all about the unsung hero so they got a video on mtv who cares their music is alot better than the other crap out there and if you look into the hisory you'll also discover other great bands they toured/worked with - built to spill neutral milk hotel both indie bands that rock which you'll never see on mtv - vini vidi vici

yeah i'd agree..arcade fire was being played on the radio frequently, on many stations, and their album was in no way mainstream...i mean, pitchfork gave it a 9.7/10. The fact that isaac is now experimenting with trumpets and a little "disco" beats seems to imply that he's still willing to try new things. Anyways, how can it be bad when they've got johnny marr?? the SMITHS guitarist?!? I hope he meshes well with the old modest mouse sound, sounds good so far

I liked them at 11. I think... It's hard to remember when I first heard of them. though it's weird, after hearing some of their older songs, I feel like I've heard them before when I was little or something.

Bought "Lonesome Crowded West" when it was new and have loved everything since. I call "Float On" their Happy Song. I love them and don't care who thinks they sold out or whatever. If you don't like 'em, doesn't affect me at all.

Better than Float On, which was awful. MM were my fave band from around '96 up until they broke my heart with that antarctica cd, which sounded to me like an almost song-for-song commercial re-vamping of the lonesome crowded west masterpiece theyve had a good song here and there the last several years but I guess Isaac really is the bastard son of Frank Black predestined to create his best work in his youth They're still a wholly decent band, which is more than you can ask for these days.

Im gonna go ahead and say that they sold out. I have been going to their shows sense 2000, and can honestly say that they have definitely gotten less expiremental and more mainstream. Listen to what you want, but when a band as respected as modest mouse changes their music so drastically, there are going to be a lot of loyal fans that do not agree. still sounds better than half the shi t on the radio, but doesn't compare to their older stuff.
greggy85 5 years ago
any band is going to change over time and with new members ... if they sound like they did ten years ago then they aren't doing something right
slapscore 5 years ago
Greggy85-
someone who has been going to the shows since 2000 has no right calling the band a sellout. You didn't even see them until they crossed over to a major label. You didn't even hear them until they "sold out". So shut your mouth fool...

I was 11 years old in 96, im sure youll find some way to attack me for being too young, but i dont know of any 11 years olds who liked modest mouse. Im sure there will be plenty who like the new album though

Thanks M3rcenary ....at lest one good thing came out of newbes listening to Modest Mouse!..All you losers saying "i've been a fan of Modest Mouse for years and years and all they are doing now is selling out", Well you don't know anything. Sure, I've been a fan before float on but i don't think their selling out. And it really doesn't matter if you or I think their selling out. They are do want they want! Alway have been, alway will!!!!

Sounds good! I for one am glad they went more mainstream with float on playing on mtv. If I hadnt heard float on, I never couldve went out and bought GNFPWLBN, and then I never wouldve fallen in love and bought The moon and antartica, and dl their other songs.

pure unadulterated kickass-ness. btw thats not disco, thats just modest mouses style.

Honestly,
It was a lot more fun when it was just the small few who knew of Modest Mouse. It made me feel that much more special, kind of like a hahahaha, i'm listening to this great music and you have no clue. But their music is still great, it's the evolution, every cd sounds different, thats what's so great about modest mouse, they delve into everything. It does still suck that their concerts will be filled with people who only know "Float On"
Oh well, that is life.

Im 32 and have been listening to MM since around 95-96 when I was working at a college radio station. I love going to shows and have people request old songs that hardly anyone there even knows...I met Isaac at the Black Cat in DC during their LCW tour and had a nice conversation with him him at the bar. Definitely a very unique and interesting person to have a conversation with. Although he wasnt as out there the time I chatted with Jeff Mangum! How many kids today even know who Jeff Mangum is?

I agree they are selling out...but come on they need some money. Plus we have to look on the bright side, it will greatly improve the tastes of the mainstream. Maybe modest mouse will make the radio worth listening to again :)

Eric Judy isn't doing anything interesting with his basslines anymore. Whatever happened to the stuff like Truckers Atlas? D:
Don't get me wrong, I happen to love the new material, I'm just wondering what happened to Eric Judy's interesting basslines.

if you hear the album version, the bassline is awesome. best part of the song in my opinion.
