Modest Mouse - The Golden Casket (June 25, 2021) • Page 8

"History Sticks To Your Feet" is an incredible b-side while we're on that topic

and yeah... "Dance Hall" is bad

 

Next thing people are gonna start saying shit luck isn’t good.

 

that song rules. "Long Distance Drunk" does not.

 

Several hours late here but what THE FUCK at that OBS take

 

Dance Hall is just fun.

 

I love the lyrics on almost every MM song but the goat is Bankrupt on Selling

 

Wow Modest Mouse adding a 4th date to Brooklyn...long live live music!

 

With this date being a Saturday, do I see them a fourth time on this tour?

 

Can’t argue with that...I don’t think I could pick one but I think Doin the Cockroach, Ocean Breathes Salty, and Misses The Boat are at the top of my list

 

I’ve only ever casually listened to this band but an artist I really like (Sir Chloe) is opening their Lollapalooza aftershow and I really want to see her without going to the fest so I might go to the show. I’m doing a full run through of their entire discography and wow a lot of it is better than I thought it was. I originally wrote them off as just the “Float On” band with a few other decent songs but I was way off haha. I’m only on the debut now but there are a bunch of legitimately great tracks on here.

 

Wait until you get to lonesome crowded west and moon and Antarctica. My goodness.

 

You’ve got one hell of a musical journey ahead of you, my friend.

 

Isaac Brock Reviews Every Modest Mouse Album, Including The New 'The Golden Casket' (uproxx.com)

Isaac is one strange dude. The children's album he mentions at the end needs to happen!

 

I don't think I knew Isaac had kids.

 

Insane article haha.

 

Listened to Lonesome Crowded West yesterday and yeah, way better than my perception of it was. Lots of great tracks on here! On to the rest today!

 

just a few more days—I wrote a little bit about it over here:

Review: Modest Mouse’s The Golden Casket Is a Polished, Buoyant Pop-Rock Trip

honestly this clicked for me right away and the more I listen to it the more I like it. it's very much a latter day Modest Mouse record, but it just might be the ideal version of that. can't wait for everyone to hear

 

So apparently the vinyl isn't shipping until 'on or about August 7"

 

this made me excited to check this out! nice work

 

Yeah good review @jordalsh

 

Jim Fairchild has left the band... interesting.

 

the writeup made it sound like a lot of it was just Isaac

 

I'd been wondering what the status was, with all of the promo photos lately just being Issac and Jeremiah.
