Modest Mouse- The Oceans Breathes Salty(live)

[Tachubo]

i love them

[octaaaaaa]

They are great live saw them with Red Hot Chili Peppers at a festival in Mexico, I fell in love with them

[myautomobilefunk]

yo los vi con los chili peppers

[Snight101]

modest mouse motherfuckers

[agusformol1]

i remember that guy saying. please welcomee Nirvanaa!!! aaaahahahahaha

it's funny

[Dexatron101]

Mmmmmmmm

Most of the video ive seen of these guys playing live really dont sound as good as the recorded versions :S

sounds kind of empty

But still, a really great band and song

[queencrab1]

Your head is empty! Numbnuts.

[Dexatron101]

suck my balls

numbnuts :)

[ccny12]

Modest Mouse is a tremendously powerfully jazzy alternative band that defies classification.

And "They Live" is an awesome movie... even life-changing if viewed the "right way" (*smile*)

Check out my tribute to "John Carpenter - They Live" and "Modest Mouse - Satin in a Coffin & Float On". See my profile.

Gotta love it!

[octaaaaaa]

bitc h

[YogurtYard]

amazing....amazing guitar!!!!

[expandwhatyousee]

ya dude there not a one hit wonder they have had 3 or 4 songs on the radi and played more the that on late night shows just because there not on the top charts doesnt make them a one hit owonder maybe if you acually listened to the band you woul know this and dude i love modest mouse period live not live watever!

[Snnowboard]

Every Modest Mouse song is amazing they're the exact opposite of a one hit wonder

[ServeTheBeaver]

conan used to be on comedy central?

anyway

i was hoping issac's voice would be more raw live. maybe he's like kurt cobain in the sense that he plays better for larger crowds. even on the album his voice has some nice gravel and twang to it

[MichaelBradus]

Conan looks like a poophead with a beard. And yes, Isaac plays much better for larger crowds. He's intense as hell.

[Neogeneticgrowth]

Isaac's voice is much better, its called character. I wonder what it feels like to know your music touched so many millions of people

[BasketCase22]

man... at the beginning i cant even tell which one is singing which part

[JamieTheMad]

"your body may be gone i'm gonna carry you in, in my head in my heart in my soul"

[nomorenames6393]

give that guy a guitar or something he looks bored as hell

[ascii32]

Haha! That's what I'm saying

[longboarder33]

I love this band! keep it up guys!!!

[xxgeno076xx]

at 2:49 amazing guitar

[railroadopticon]

Amazing power chords?

[blackandwhyte]

not so much- watch his hands.... he plays about three chords..

[bradley364]

it sounds amazing, thats all that matters dude.

[abciance]

i prefer there old albums that werent pop though o:

[myTUBULARTACOS]

Late Night shows lose a lot of the feeling of a band! See MM live; the vibe of the crowd, the two drummers, the stage lighting.. everything is better. This is an exceptional band.

[Animaniac120]

Awesome song, awesome band... just AWESOME!

[NativeFox006]

Greatest performence I ever seen!

[LocalRidersFL]

Legendary

[mindexit07]

whatever, it makes it sound better.

[boon222222]

i hate that second singer with the girly voice, he ruins it...

[DeizeKnutts]

Oh c'mon guys.. He does sound girly in a live.

[treymcneil]

he is their keyboardist he should stick to that

[deadsexy4]

it is called falsetto(maybe not how you spell it, though, haha) if you have ever listened to coldplay, that is what there singer does all the time

[Darko19861112]

they really worked their way through the "onehit wonder" classification. sorry Iggy Pop. your Lust For Life never got you a second hit

[crusec]

they werent really a one hit wonder, maybe a one hit mainstream wonder but there indie fan base was huge before good news

[molerat233]

my favorite song from modest mouse!

[DarkGhost678]

i downloaded a live performance of this song and it was unbelievable so raw energy way better than the studio version hoping this live performance was going to be the same as the one i have but its not

[JaReDude85]

god i saw them live yesterday it was so god damn awesome! it was funny isaac was talking shit to the security! the security there sucked =(....but it was still a great show

[lifeofbob]

I wonder why they didn't just have Tom play the keyboard part since he's not doing anything else, there's another affected guitar part on the album that Dan could have played in there too.

[JoF00l]

Is that the same drummer that was on the album? This is one of my favorite songs ever, and after listening to it about a trillion times I came to realize what made it so beautiful to me was the minimalistic yet amazing drum beat, it was just the beats he was playing in the song but the space between them that made it almost hypnotic. In this performance he added so much filler in between everything

[JoF00l]

P.S. Don't get me wrong, I believe they should have the freedom to do whatever they want with their songs, and this was a great performance

[Orloff13]

awesome.

[katienjoi]

my favorite modest mouse song!! performed beautifully!

[fellowshipfan]

man, modest mouse is the best. i love that they sound good live, thats purity.

[dkg246bmx]

Jeremiah is the sickest. Watch some Vells videos.

[6skateitup9]

I love modest mouse, there such a great band.

[spencercapencer]

much respect

[mynameisnicholas]

i don't see how people can like jeremiah green over ben weiekel. Weikel added so much more of a powerful style in his playing... jeremiah's playing is cool in a melancholy way i guess. But the chorus sounds dull.

[brighteyes498]

That was amazing. Even though it was their single, and I've heard it a million times, I'm still in love with it.

[samuelshepard]

no i think that float on came out on the radio before this one did

[LiekWhoa]

Isn't the backup singer Tom, just he wasn't playing anything? I know that's Joe with the tambourine.

[freakshowv]

i love the part almost 2 qnd a half mins into the songthe stop and then theres a ting and they all start jamming.very good

[zero12o]

good good song live sound soo good right? anyways listen to hyimn at myspace thery're performing live

[BassinJason]

eric judy and isaac brock are awesome*

looks weird with the extra "is" in there

[iwashere465]

modest mouse al da way

[BassinJason]

without a doubt the best band ever

eric judy is and isaac brock are awesome...

[KronBomb]

Gullucci is so much better than Marr

[DancePartyBomb]

very true.

[sparkytop555]

u do not know what you're talking about.

[jacobgellman]

Yeah but his guitar wasn't turned up very loud.

[Deception777]

I love this video modest mouse is one of my favorite bands they dont sounds like anyother band

[supercoolryan1212]

that's the best stuff (the guitar)

[standalone85]

very true that seperates bands like modest mouse from like another indie band like dashboard confessionals

Dc has a very similar sound in all their nusic and when they peform live they dont sound the same because they have a WIDE range of vocals that are very high notes

where as modest mouse has very musical sound its very irregualr and diffrrenet and when they perform live you dont really haer any mistakes becuse thier music is irregular so its sounds fine

[crashdance28]

Most indie bands are more musical than mainstream bands. The thing is simplicity sells. People like to hear simple repeating music and beats. It makes it easier to remember and therefore more likeable.

[standalone85]

they sound great live and in thier albums idndie bnds are great becaz they dont have to conform to the "norms" of what ppl want to hear they dance top thier own groove

the back singer is a lil louder tahn isaac though

[schafer4016]

look at the fire boy at the begining. HILARIOUS

[slipknotkittegrl]

flawess victory

[topsy21]

if you think they don't sound good live, you obviously have not been to a show. it is great. isaac is insane, along with the rest of the band.

[ZacharyWDS17]

I went to a concert about a month ago, they were great. All i meant was that they sound alot better on their albums.

[ZacharyWDS17]

modest mouse is the best band ever, love the lyrics, and the videos, but they dont sound too good live, im not trying to be mean, but they kinda sound like a normal garage band scrwaming at a microphone when they are live. oh well, they sound good on the cd's so...

[funkmasterswede]

Indie rock bands are not known for their musicianship.

[jacobgellman]

Sure they are, I think moreso than mainstream bands.

Listen to all the different parts of the song, it's very melodic.

[gregorisgod]

Modest Mouse were the best band I've seen live, barre Isis.

Amazing stuff. Ocean Breathes Salty is cracking. =D

[DangerDoom23]

Let me say that Modest Mouse and Franz Ferdinand are the two best indie bands to ever come out the last 5-6 years.

[Bululalula]

Sooo true!!

[slstratocaster]

well modest mouse has been around for more than 10 years, but they really became famous with Good News.

[Brand0nv11]

that sounded real good for a live performance!

[karlitaxx]

they are not EMO!! of course noT! emo?... ahaha please read whats being emo its about, thanks god modest is not emo

[bigbabyjesusicantwai]

taking back sunday sucks balls, they arent indie they are emo and they suck.

[nofx221984]

WTF, your a dumshit

[GRUNGEYJESSE]

it would be "you're a dumb shit".

if you're gonna' call someone a dumb shit don't be a dumb shit in the process.

[wetthecheat]

lol, you guys are retarded, they sound quite a bit different live.

[standalone85]

Again they sound really no difrent on the album thatn they do live , the back up is a lil louder thatn lead

[Thegreen007]

haha i remember when he had that school boy chubbiness to him. Now hes just a chubby dopehead

[fluffythelizard]

the backup sing is meant to be in it.. they performed the same way as they recorded it.

[slappymccrecken]

Why all the hate?! Its a good video. Enjoy it while youtube lasts.

[paleikas]

the back up singer ruined it

[tetra3000]

to the crowd: "ok, calm down"

[madrox555]

ok i dont like the back up singer just let isaac sing by himself please

[iluvrhcpyay]

ya i no

[RealGerbil]

you spelt knife wrong idiot.

[iluvrhcpyay]

It's spelled not "spelt", idiot!

[gawd70]

one of the last "indie" band and probably the best.

[tyble23]

yeah them and spoon

[gawd70]

I agree with ya (Britt Daniel's great) and as they remind me the pixies, (especially in the past) I would add the handsome FRANK Black to the list.

[XxGRECOxX]

taking back sunday is a good indie band too

[supercoolryan1212]

Taking Back Sunday isn't a true indie band imo...

[sasukenebe100]

amazing! ^_^

[allmappedout13]

I dont understand, does the label insist that they have some vocalist on back up? Im scared./

[c2dinc]

I think this band has an amazing future...not to say it's not amazing already. Absolutely awesome!

[Hiperdude138]

rock on

[Jaworlahol]

Wow...Modest Mouse rocks so hard that Bruce Willis will sing back up for Issac Brock!

[jbreyer]

love modest mouse

[fugazi85]

so beautiful

[pennskate]

well holly tits this sucked

[GRUNGEYJESSE]

like your any better. haha.

NO.

[mikeasux]

Issac has his own custom Ibanez.. i don't know much about it but i know its one of a kind. with very few if no remakes of it

[GRUNGEYJESSE]

do you mean the kind he is playing here? its not an ibanez.

[modestmoose83]

the tremelo thing is kind of a custom tremelo, i think it is a bar lifted off of the bridge that compounds the furthur its lifted/pressed.

[nickconfidental]

its a custom guitar, its probly fit to suit isaacs musical needs and wants. its a wicks, there like $3500 for a bottom of the line custom.

wicksguitars[dot]com

[JamieTheMad]

Well they're kickass band whatever anyone says

[Boyakasha11]

Craziest fucking band ever... Crazy because they're the best band ever.

[kspankles]

remember opinions people, just opinions. none of which are facts. it's sure easy to critique someone when you have no idea what your talking about. the world is full of haters bad bad bad people

[m52pwr]

haha... so true..

[baiowulf]

i saw this when it first aired. god damn, isaac looks like a fat puff ball. though the backup vocs sound MUCH better than i initially thought. perfect, in fact. until the break down @ 2.30. but the new album will suck hXc so o well.

[josboroliv]

Funk metal!? Red Hot Chilli Peppers!?

[whirlaway]

i like that song

[crazybeff]

it's pretty funny how these douchebags critique professional musicians when they probably have now idea even how to play

[Zarwid]

they are better players than you. i bet you dont know a thing about music

[edihedihedih]

they're not out of tune, they just bend the strings a lot.

[drukqs]

he using a tremolo without the whammy bar you can see him pushing it into the guitar lol and he uses delay on top of that GOD I LOVE THEM XD

[tsvorvitaliy]

i love to read all the stupid people comment bands' music

[klysandral]

theyre gay ass back up singer makes it sound gross

[shimboos]

you rule

[supercoolryan1212]

yeah what's up with that guy...

[nickconfidental]

ha, well thats one mans/womans opinion whatever you may be. but i think the drums arent any good, thats not the same drummer as on the album.

[optik]

rulz!!!!

[darkgrlroxs13]

i love this song
