Reminder that it's been 13 years since we got a good Modest Mouse album.
Does anyone still defend this band? Will we get another decent album from them again in our lifetimes?

No One's First And You're Next was on par with GNFPWLBN, and that was 2009. But yeah, this was a really weak effort. I think Isaac has outgrown the problems that made him a good songwriter.
13 years? More like 20. Sorry, but it's true.
Reminder that it's been 47 years since we got a good Beatles album

How is that contrarian? I'm not even the same guy, but a very large number of people think Modest Mouse are complete trash.

And a very large amount of people enjoy them, so what?
>>73061270
We Were Dead was great though.

Daily reminder that bands with consistently good discographies are the exception, not the rule.

not true btw

Honestly this. I consider myself a modest mouse fan and I really only listen to good news, moon & Antarctica, and lonesome crowded west. If I enjoy any of their other albums I'll be pleasantly surprised but otherwise I'm happy with what I've got

The world is full of opinions and assholes.

if you like lcw there's no reason you wouldn't like building nothing out of something and this is a long drive

No, they really don't. They are one of the most consistently critically acclaimed acts of their era from across the spectrum of professional music reviewers. Even if you aren't a fan, there are infinitesimally few people who would say they are "complete trash". The only real reason to do so would be to ostentatiously display an opinion that runs contrary to a general consensus. In other words, le edgy contrarian maymay. Thanks for playing.
I saw them yesterday in Pomona, it was lit yo. They're really good live.
