Just got done watching a little bit of the Johnny Cash documentary Johnny Cash: The Man, His World, His Music on Wisconsin Public Television and it put me in the mood to cruise over to the computer for some tunes before I head off to bed.Before I do that, I want to take a second to mention just how much I enjoy the new Modest Mouse record. It's been on constant play in my PT Cruiser's CD player...

Modest Mouse’s decision to release a video for their track ‘King Rat‘ may look weird considering the track was originally the b-side for 2007 single ‘Dashboard‘.Think again, the video was directed by Academy Award Winning Joker and sadly departed actor Heath Ledger. Besides, the video is not only visually stunning but highlights Ledger’s concerns over [...]

Before Heath Ledger passed away back in January, it was known that he directed a Modest Mouse video. Though he died before he could completely finish the work, it has now been completed and, well, you've seriously got to see it.

I didn’t want to go to this show. I just didn’t. I have always cast a doubtful eye on the Modest Mouse machine, and while I’ve heard songs I’ve liked, I’ve never felt particularly compelled to delve into their back catalog and forge an informed opinion. But I decided to take solace in the fact that there must be a reason so many people adore this group. There must be something made of ma

Today’s Video of the Day is absolutely incredible. Off the Dial reader and local musician Jzero Schuurman alerted me to this video by Modest Mouse that was released earlier this month. The song, “King Rat” is fantastic and the animation, with it’s blatant and hard-hitting message, is so unbelievably great it’s beyond words. Here’s the [...]

New WaxWhile No One's First, And You're Next, the latest release from Modest Mouse, can't be considered a proper follow-up to 2007's We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank, it contains enough bright moments in its outtakes and leftovers to merit a listen. The EP contains more polished versions of B-sides from 2004's Good News For People Who Love Bad News and the aforementioned We Were Dead. Mus...

I saw this Modest Mouse video last night and was floored by the amount of special effects. It's been a while since I listened to anything new from Modest Mouse because I could never get into anything post-2000 from them. They may have lost me when I started associating one of my favorite songs "Gravity Rides Everything" (The Moon & Antarctica) with "hip" moms riding around in Nissans.I'll alway...

Do you see that? It's bigger than my bigger-than-usual remote for the $25 cheap-ass VCR I own. Measuring in at 8in x 3.25in my Tuesday night ticket to see Modest Mouse at LA's Palladium was by far the biggest and most excessive exploitation of LiveNation I've ever seen. They dont even make parking tickets that big! Someone explained to me it was for advertising purposes. What a waste of trees....

I once knew an aquaintance of a friend who was quite the outdoor daredevil. He got our close-knit group of stoners involved in rappelling. For those going "??" rappelling is the sport of climbing down mountains with ropes. You use a series of special chain links like pullys to slowly descend. We would travel a couple hours away to Daniel Boone National forest in Kentucky and spend the weekend d...
