Twenty years ago, The Smiths and R.E.M. were just two bands that happen to come along and in part define a decade. Guitarist Johnny Mar, once with the Smiths and now with Modest Mouse, recently weighed in on his current group's upcoming tour with the legendary Athens, Georgia trio in the US this May.R.E.M. is in promotion mode for their April 1 release of ??Accelerate??, Marr says the prospect...

uhhh, this is the new Modest Mouse single? Even with the crappy radio-rip quality, it's pretty easy to tell that this song really sucks ass. Label me completely unimpressed. To quote someone from I Guess I'm Floating: "why don't they just call the album "Sam's Town"...wow, just really, really disappointed, I wen't back to listen again, it's even worse the second time around, man, way to ruin m...

I have been anxiously awaiting the new album...I like many other people never was tuned into MM until _Good News_ came out....although I would like to have been quite cool and been listening to them since they played their first house party...alas I was not. In any case...since _Good News_ I have been exploring their back catalog and have fallen in love with nearly all of their albums. Most n...

Ok, I know that pretty much everyone has heard the new Modest Mouse song, but I was actually able to get a CD quality version of the track. If anyone wants it, let me know and I can put it up on multiply for a little while before I get a warning that I can't share unreleased music.

whoooa, it has been awhile.i was thinking about buying the new modest mouse cd. i like the single a lot. i get annoyed when it is described as "radio-friendly"...to me it is just modest mouse, and that is that. modest mouse is one of those bands that changes its sounds with basically every record (at least i think so)...that is what makes them pretty much awesome. the only song that i don't rea...

The early days of '07 keep flying by and my lazy fingers have yet to bore MOG with any posts. Today that will change as last night I looked to the sky to see a spotlight bearing the smiling face of Whitman Mayo calling my MOG alter-ego into action. Modest Mouse was under fire and only a pathetic fan-boy such as myself could come to their rescue. The outcries were familiar .. "the Mouse have sol...

I know I know this has happened so many times to me but everytime I still feel the need to complain and take offense. I started listening to Modest Mouse many many years ago while living in Seattle and being angry at the world. Despite the many horror stories from people who were one time close to Issak and his craziness, I still appreicated his raw honesty and blatantly destructive outlook on ...

I am not a fan of Modest Mouse, but I gotta say, I don't hate the new single.

more then a week ago XRT, a radio station here in chicago, played modest mouse's new single, dashboard. i was at work in an echoy bakery and it was difficult to hear. but i felt disappointed. tonight i happened upon it online and gave it an actual listening to. i'm still not all that impressed. i keep coming across posts whinging about the modest mouse past. they want the modest mouse we w...

I heard the new Modest Mouse album and I really liked it. Especially, "March On"(i think that's what it's called), and "Missed the Boat." "Spitting Venom" was really amusing too. I'm going to see Against Me! on thursday! They're playing with this really great band called Fake Problems. The name kind of makes them sound juvenile, but they're not. Check them out. I have also heard the new Fall Ou...

I'm really not sure what to think of this new Modest Mouse song "Dashboard". It has the typical "Good News..." dance beat background, typical Issac Brock lispy shouts, new and improved Johnny Marr background vocals and quick fire Smiths style guitars. But for some reason it seems a bit too upbeat. I'm not sure. It is catchy that is for sure. What do you think?Listen Here
