  • this is disgusting

  • I'll say this, Modest Mouse has never put out a weak album in my opinion

  • DEFINATLY

  • FUCK TO THE YEA!

  • Another great live song from MM!

  • ahh internet bickering. hey! cool vid thanks for the upload holmes!

    fuck hitler

  • <3 you modest, you put on a great show at the aragon ballroom. i got vids you should all check out

  • modest mouse and metallica are the best bands evers!!!

  • Quite frankly Ilovethebible1993, speak for yourself. It's silly you want to use the whole idea of being a Modest Mouse fan in terms to being holier than thou. Its just music in the end, music you didnt have a part of creating, so where do you really stand?

  • Somebody likes discriminating people!

    Let's look at this for a second, not only are you calling him out on his sexual orientation, but you think because he likes a band you don't like, no, not even that, because he likes a band you do like AND a band you don't like, that he should be killed? You are one psychotic mother fucker. Even Hitler had more reasoning for his genocides.

  • @sk8enjoi000 looks like someones in the closet.

  • Crowing, you're just a fucking stupid, please kill yourself jesus motherfucking goddamn christ.

  • @Ilovethebible1993 I CAN CURSE AND HAVE BAD GRAMMAR TOO! FUCKING JESUS SHIT DAMNIT SAAAATAAAAN ASSWIPE FUCKE FASE!

  • im not even gonna argue...you say you love the bible, but your probably a 12 yr old trying to impress his parents....if you really knew SHIT about gods true message, you would have respect. but its fine, god made us imperfect.

  • @sk8enjoi000 Perhaps you and this twelve year old youre yelling can both stfu about "gods message" and realize that he was a prick who dosn't care about you. In the bible god killed thousands while Satan killed like ten.

  • you totally ruined the anger of that comment by saying 'bro'.

  • @Ilovethebible1993 lulz i think Metalica sucks too but thats a little harsh dont ya think?

  • metallica doesnt come close. metallica in my opinion was good for their first 3 years. then they turned into shitty butt rock.

  • to bad this song was from back in the 90's and just got released... you seem to not like the 90's version of the band.

  • @mbrinton I'm tired of all these fuckin "pure" music listeners who think that MM got worse just because people finally realized how awesome they are. Go listen to songs like "all night diner" and "third planet" and compare them to songs like "float on and this one.

  • the dude up front to the left is moving up and down quite irregularly, mabye he has a problem, oh well. Still my favorite band.

  • lol yeah looks funny

  • are u talkin about eric judy?

    The bassist

  • Modest Mouse is definitely the best band in the history of the world

  • did jonny leave the band?

  • NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Jesus. He's recording with his side-project band.

  • oh noes!!!

  • i dont think he did.I think hes in the backroud or sumthing,

  • @magicpie77 no this is before the official was released and I heard him singing there.

  • when do the vinyl singles come out?

  • this month

    and the ep in august

  • Their out now I made a video showing one very cool artwork

  • I like how abrupt the ending of this song is. I like this song a lot for its simplicity. It's a lot different than MM's other stuff and I'm really looking forward to see where they're going with their song writing. It's been 2 years since WWD was released and it'll probably be another year or so before the next album with new material is released, and I can't wait!!

  • closer then a year, they're gunna get the album out in august =)

  • Well, that's going to be their EP of outtakes from Good News and We Were Dead. I'm talking about their next album of all new material.

  • ohh i got ya.

  • They are releasing the EP in August but up to August they will be releasing 2 vinyl singles I believe.

  • Either 3 or four singles, depending on whether I've Got It All (Most). I imagine it goes:

    SS/Guilty Cocker Spaniel (obviously)

    The Whale Song/Autumn Beds

    Tie The Lake Down/King Rat

    History/I've Got It All (Most)

    Not entirely sure, but The Whale Song fits well with Autumn Beds, and I think Tie The Lake Down is the Dirty Dozen song, so it is weird like king rat.

  • @xraistlininblackx I thought history and perpetual motion machine were a single while I've got it almost was part of the float on single. Havn't heard the lake down is the dirty tho, I thought king rat was made especialy for No Ones First.

  • Going down hill doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. Their older stuff is better than the newer music but it's still damn good.

  • i dont think its worse... its different yeah but they still sound like MM... they're not conforming though which is great

  • idk how any one can complain about this song. i love it

  • No, it sure is called Glacial Pace, his side project is called Ugly Cassanova.

  • No One's First and You're Next, August 2009.

    *thumbs up*

  • Why are people saying the contract is up? Issac has his own record label now... Glacial Pace I think it's called

  • no it's called Ugly Casanova.

  • This is awesome...I can't wait for the new EP...seriously can't wait...

  • does anyone know what show this was at??

    it looks like the show I saw them at last summer... got a set list from that show...

    if i'm in that crowd, it would be kickass... so if anyone knows... tell me!!!

  • This sounds like early Modest Mouse, like Custom Concern.

  • Not uh. This sounds all happy. This is extremely different. Sorry, that's just my opinion.

  • wrong. This sounds like modest mouse is not the same band as it was in the good old days. I'm a faithful fan, and will most likely buy the EP, but their sound has DEFINITELY gone downhill.

  • I agree that their sound has changed< but that is because they are human and constantly changing. I think it is an evolution. MM is always developing a sound that is not what they have done before, but not of a lesser quality. From Elvis and the beatles to pearljam and MM, bands evolve and/or dissolve. Musicians create from what is within themselves. MM's music is always a reflection of this.

  • "happy fucking congratulations!"

    a perfect blend of bitterness, reflections and acceptance.

  • I agree they've changed, but that's kinda funny to say about a band that's always been changing. Most older fans tend to not like the "new styled modest mouse" and i think it's because it's a lot more poppy. Here's a thing about pop, it actually used to be cool (Beatles, Rolling Stones, Zepp) If a poppy sound is gonna put modest mouse on the radio, and help them get the attention they deserve, i'm all for it only bc their messages are just as deep and consistent. Rock on Modest Mouse, Rock on!

  • i would like someone that could name a band that has been around as long as MM that hasnt changed. if they havnt then i would feel sorry for them as humans. i have been a fan of their music before "good news" and that is one of my favorite albums of theirs not b/c it was on the radio but b/c it is so personal and if you cant hear that then you have truly missed the boat. when i listened to that album it was like it was telling my life story. "building something" and "lonesome crowded west"

  • are also one of my favorites. but this song is fucking amazing. it is like nothing they have ever done but at the same time so familar.

  • I hate bands that all their songs sound the same. I'm glad they're progressing because you never know what to expect. People would complain if they did the same stuff over and people are complaining that they've changed just relax and listen to some good music.

  • You rock. Thats exactly how I feel. I would only complain if they were to stagnate, which is hardl the case.

  • @Mf1088 Sloppy? see I thought older mm fans liked their old stuff because of its imperfection and personality. Thats why I like it. New MM isn't "sloppy," its just not as real. Also, about the pop idea, just wait ten years. You'll be saying how good pop was then.

  • @ITTTheKrimsonKing I never said sloppy. i dont think anyways. I highly agree their imperfect personality was just great. but i do disagree about pop. im not gonna look back and like all the pop rock out there. it's just tasteless. i like pop like miley, gaga, jo bros... some pretty gay stuff because its better than most pop out there... bc it's staying true to hwat it is. i just dont like the muic played on the radio unless its over the top pop music

  • @Mf1088 when i said pop I didn't mean shit like miley that hipes up rich teenage sluts. I meant bands like Coldplay, The Red Hot Chile Peppers, Franz Ferdinand, and The White Stripes. If you were talking about bands like this being "distasteful" then I can tell you its a lot better than the fucking Jonas Brothers, but maybe thats me just trashing on them because they're a band of pretty boys who are enjoyed by ten year old girls.

  • @ITTTheKrimsonKing lol yeah dont get me wrong id never compare some pretty boy band to MM but overall personally i dont like theyre newer stuff as much. just happens with most bands. i would say MM is one of the top 5 best bands ever of all time in a heartbeat though

  • @Mf1088 And the new fans like the new and old songs mostly.

  • remember that Isaac isn't always going to be a young 20 year old full of screams and so much energy. Its been 10 years since everything up until M&A was written. They were playing "Dark Center in '98, and "Gods Shoeshine" in 1996, so its safe to say all those were written when Issac was really young. They've just gotten older and matured. I don't necessarily like it either, but its something we have to face, haha. All bands do it sometime. :)

  • Yeah, I'm tryin to practice acceptance and have a better perspective on it, and I realized even this new music is a another level compared to 99% of bands out there. I realize that most bands want to creatively branch out, and where they branch out to usually doesn't appeal to the audience AT ALL, and for them to pull it off is incredible. I will add one note: Built to Spill is one of those anomalies that gets better as they get older, in my opinion.

  • for sure man! I've noticed that a lot of MM fans enjoy Built to Spill, Elliot Smith, and the like. BTS has always been really good though, and Modest Mouse are still one of the best bands to break into mainstream. I'm glad they finally achieved true financial success and held on to their fanbase as well. :)

  • This is probably the best youtube comment I've read in a long time. Elliott and Built to Spill are awesome :)

  • Hey if you like them and Modest Mouse you ought to give 764-HERO and The Brian Jonestown Massacre a chance.

    That is if you haven't already.

  • I can't wait for the new CD! I wish a new Ugly Casanova would hurry up and come out. Hopefully soon since his contract has been up and this album is set to come out.

  • What contract, Modest Mouse's entire contract with Epic? Or the thing that said he could only release one album with Ugly Casanova? I want a new Ugly Casanova, too.

  • The contract with Epic. I didnt know there was a contract with UC. I read an article sometime around the release of there last cd and he said it could happen. Tell me more about contract??

  • I'm pretty sure Epic only let Isaac Brock have one side-project album. So I guess now, since the contract with Epic is up, he can have more side-project albums.

  • Oh yea. I knew about that. I thought you meant he couldnt do anymore with UC. Im pickin up what your puttin down.

  • The Whale Song and King Rat sound awesome. This doesn't sound very good.

  • Love it. Sounds like pre-good news mouse. Which is pretty fuckin' sweet

  • what album, the ep is out?

  • the ep is set to come out in september, issac is thinking about calling it no ones next and your first

  • How do you know this? Any links? I've been waiting for this damned album all year! It was supposed to be out a while ago.

  • Amazing! the album version could be one one of my favs

  • there is no album version dude, if there is then share it

  • he's talking about it when it comes out

  • you need to buy all the cds buddy

  • this is amazing. i actually going to buy a cd

  • DUDE i was at this show. based off your position i was stating right to the left of you. i was fighting the drunk maushers who kept hitting my girl. FUCKING AMAZING SHOW!

  • get the fuck out of the crowd then if you're poor little girl is gonna get crushed...i had to deal with some frat boy jock retard with his girlfriend last time..and no i'm not a drunk moshing retard myself...people up near the front are gonna get nuts regardless

  • Hahaha what kinda dumb fuck moshes to this?? its not even hard!!! hahaha

  • it was loud enough

  • what kinda dumb fuck moshes?

  • No, you don't understand my love for everything MM. This song just doesn't do much for me. Plain and simple.

  • I don't like it...

    And I love mouse...argh.

  • when does the ep come out????

  • Is there a leak for the studio version of this song yet? lol

  • nope there wont be leaks for a while dude. the EP im guessing is going to come out late Spring or Early summer

  • Let's hope it's spring. I don't want to wait for this cd.

  • frig off randy

  • I'm diggin the lyrics.

    just..no so much the rhythm..

    is this new?

  • IMINLOVEWITHTHISSONG

  • everything these guys make is amazing

  • modest mouse is just to awesome to be terrable

    imo this songs and their stuff is really good

  • what..

  • what are you talking about and what do you mean what

  • i commented on something farther down but it showed up at the top

  • Man... I need this song so bad.

  • amen. modest mouse is good always and forever.

    it takes a real man to admit you sold out for a minivan commercial, that's all im sayin.

  • haaaa hell yea man. "there's bills to pay" i think is what he said. mm remains on the top of my list.

  • GIVE ME THIS GODDAMN ALBUM

    Also, if I hear one more person try and sound cool for saying their new stuff sucks, I might...get angry I guess. But really, their new stuff is really good too. It's just unfair that their new stuff is being compared to their old stuff (which is godlike and therefor hard to compare anything with.

  • Although I do like their new stuff, it is obviously more linear and more pop-like than their old stuff. Their old stuff was filled with sweet tempo changes and they tended to divert from the very bland verse-chorus-verse song structure. I can see why people like their old stuff more.

  • You are so right. I thought they were going down hill fast after float on but I really liked this song! I guess we'll just have to wait till the album comes out.

  • I completely agree.

  • As do I, but I still dont think it's fair to compare any two albums at all.

  • Oh god, this has to hurry up and come out...

  • the only question now is

    when?

    ..i cant wait..

  • i need the new ep. or at least an update. song is sick!

  • i dont understand why people bitch about old v new. songs like 'people as places as people' i enjoy just as much as the old faves. the people who continue to bich belong on korn forums. ejoy for farks sake. p.s i like this new song on first impression

  • bleh... i like older MM way better... lonesome crowded west is my bible.

  • Yeah, but modest mouse is still modest mouse... WE should love them know mater what they play,,, If you feel the way i do at least..

  • True enough. There are no Modest Mouse songs I DON'T love. I can't wait for their next album.

    <3 MM

  • Fuck ya!!!

    I have 2 Modest mouse tattoos!!

    First and only love.

    One says modestlove..

    so sick..

  • what's the other? i've been thinking about getting some MM tattoos too!

  • oh i know ill be buying this the day it comes out... its growing on me...

  • This sounds like something out of Moon and the Antarctica. I love it!

  • new stuff is being released in a few months, according to Marr it's 8 songs.

  • Isaac revealed in an interview they were shooting for a september release

  • when is the new material being released?

  • some1 find the lyrics or figure them out.

  • happy fucking congratulations... thats all i can make out haha

  • i love modest mouse, old and new. i think if u've only heard their new album then u're missing out and you need to check out the older stuff too :) it all sounds amazing. that's nothing to get mad about... but i know a lot of people who have ONLY checked out the new album and didn't like it, so never took the time to even find the older songs. i think people should do a little more research before they say they don't like modest mouse. HOW THE HELL COULD U NOT LOVE THIS!!! :D

  • i can hardly watch this, its so beautiful it almost makes me cry. modest mouse is the best band ever period.

    and all you dumbass hipster fuck kids who hate on new modest mouse can go to hell.... you dont really listen to music or know what real music is. you guys probably dont even know what sad sappy sucker is without fucking wikipediaing it. theres a time for moon and theres a time for gnfpwlbn, and all of their cds. doesnt mean you have to pick one or the other, its all beautiful

  • dude why do you get so mad about music. just chill

  • sorry, its just been building up for 4 years and i had to let it out.

  • It's all good. I feel you.

  • couldnt agree more. beautufil. and wonderful. best. band. ever.

  • fo sho

  • Tab is up on modmouse forums!

  • well happy fuckin congratulations

  • the thing is WWD sounds like a strange mixture of talking heads and the shins...this doesn't. I'd say it's a step forward.

  • the whole theme of this song and even the whale song seems to be similar to float on and dashboard to an extent, but i don't know all the lyrics. but the whole "Everyone, everyone wins!" from this and "everybody could find a way out" from the whales song

  • i generally don't mind bands getting poppier. as long as they keep their artistic core. this just seems like bad songwriting.

  • This is barely a glimpse of what the song will really sound like once it's recorded. I remember hearing versions of Missed the Boat and some other songs from WWDBTSES and I thought they sounded like crap, sort of like this, but they ended up being a lot better on the CD, then once you hear the real versions, the live versions start to sound better too.

  • yeah but judging from this and the Whale Song, it sounds like they are getting closer to what they used to sound like before WWDBTSES. Well more so on the Whale Song. But this one sounds like something off of Good News. Hopefully the EP will come out soon but they started playing songs from WWDBTSES about 6 months or so before the cd finally came out..

  • dude the whale song seems really Long Drive doesn't it? It reminds me of mechanical birds........

  • yeah see it does seem like a darker version of mechanical birds..

    and it for some reason has a moon and antartica feel.

    its like they took the mood from those two cds and mixed them together.

  • we should only hope they start sounding more like the old modest mouse. I love their new stuff too but their older stuff is classic theyll never top it.

  • oh of course.

    i dont hate the new stuff by any means..

    nothing will compare to lonesome crowded west though

  • I completely agree with that statement!!!

  • id say as far as studio albums go, long drive, antartica, then lonesome crowded west.

  • rite on man

  • Modest Mouse was so '97.

  • why would that be all that you put on this page, you can go kill your self with a rusty blade and have your dad jizz in your ear so you can't ever hear anything good again.

  • that was a post from a member of a MM forum that got to talk to Isaac and Erik about it.

    so fuck you

  • what was a post from a forum

  • the one that says "its recorded and already being mixed..."

  • sarcasm ass hole.

    i was being sarcastic.

  • When will some people learn that sarcasm doesn't always work via keyboard? Well, at least, you warned us now.

  • GODDAMN IT. i've always said that!!

    but it was a rather obvious sarcasm. it's not like he/she wouldn't have been able to tell.

  • not really stoked on this much at all. to be fair though, i can really only hear the guitar and drums and parts of the vocals. studio version could turn out to be good but this kinda sounds generic and uninteresting. and i even really liked good news too.

  • i'm really not feeling this

  • this song does sound a bit like older MM. I wanna see a music video for this if it comes out in a studio version.

  • I going to make a prediction... the hipster bloggers like the idiots at Pitchfork Media are going to HATE this song when it comes out on the EP. It's really catchy and has the typical verse-chorus-verse song structure which, according to them, sucks. Oh well, I like it, but I can see why they left it off the album.

  • is this EP rumor true??

    also, its nice to see that people posted up some vids of this concert. I almost got to go. but i was camping the week of the concert. I subbed

  • It's recorded already and being mixed

    the whale song, satelite skin, and automn beds are all outtakes from We were dead.

    there will be three outtakes from good news

    King Rat and I've got it all(most) might be on it too.

    There is no title yet but Isaac has been trying out a few.

    I got to talk to Isaac about it after that. he said that he thought of a good title the day before. It was something like -Nobody's next and You're first-

  • Does anyone one have a copy of the lyrics to this song. From what i can tell this sounds a lot like old modest mouse, lyrically.

  • whens the ep coming out?

  • they played this in cincinnati the other night... drove down from detroit for the show and it was amazing!

    It was really bothering me tho that i didnt know what this song was. Thanks for posting.

  • As a huge Modest Mouse fan who has loved everything released by them, I really hope this sounds better as an in-studio recording. Because this is just really boring...

  • well happy fucking congratulations...

    best line ever

  • I agree.

    I want to say that to someone, haha.

  • what show is from? thanks!
