@1KingMab0

nahh dude i don't, sorry. the crowd was too wild to keep straight. check that "doin' the cockroach" vid i got to see what i'm talkin about.

[James1803]

Too many people think being a great guitarist means you have to play at fucking light speed and fuck them. Isaac is creative and plays with feeling.

[willmer88]

yeah, i'm sure isaac just googled the tab for spitting venom before this show. haha.

so what if he doesn't have rediculous guitar speed or shredding style? he writes absolutely beautiful music and he plays it in a style different than anyone i've ever seen. as a matter of fact, some of the beauty of the music is the gritty, ugly parts (i'm not contradicting myself) it's just that isaac seems to have an "i don't need to have a typical sound" attitude. isn't that why we all love modest mouse?

genius songwriter > guitar player.

wouldnt everyone agree? are we forgetting that this guy can shred on a banjo as well? who knows how many instruments he can play haha.

[cloudig]

at the end of the day a great musician is someone who can WRITE good music. Anyone in the world, and I mean anyone can learn to be fast/technically good at an instrument but to be able to write songs like a band such as modest mouse... well you just can't learn/teach that. modest mouse are by far one of the most original bands around - especially their early albums - long drive, lonesome crowded west etc.

@willmer88 So Much Beauty in Dirt

[Holdenbrock]

The best thing about Isaac is that his guitar style is so unique. It seems wild and all over the place, but he knows exactly what he's doing. His riffs always sound awkward, but he plays them with such feeling that they fit right into place. Such a refreshing change from the recent developments in shredding the fuck out of a guitar or hitting powerchords as hard as possible. His style can't be emulated, and for that he deserves greater respect.

@geb5029 Are you seriously that illiterate? I never once said that I disliked Jimi Hendrix--I'm in fact a HUGE fan. I was quoting what somebody else said. Don't be lazy and scroll down to read my praises given to Jimi Hendrix.
