New Modest Mouse - "We've Got Everything" (Live @ Wiltern, LA 11/6/06)

Finally, some decent audio of new Modest Marr! The quality ain't perfect, but it's good enough to get us excited. With its melodic, clean riffs "We've Got Everything" could easily be a great Smiths song -- and then it gets all Mousey. They're probably still working out arrangements, and it's bound to sound even better on record, but we're liking what we hear! Kudos to all for trying something new. Moz had his shot; Brock is like an Anti-Moz. And it's working.

worst set ever. if i wanted to hear all the bullshit "good news" songs I wouldve just stayed home. The song sounds like "The View" (Redux, ft. Johnny Marr). Disappointed

Wow is that fucking terrible. And I love Modest Mouse.

This has nothing to do with Modest Mouse, but my pseudo-indie music/politics/movies blog, Mirr World, is up for "blog of the week". If you feel so inclined, you can vote for it here:

I don't think an indie rock world that embraces mediocre drek like Tapes 'N' Tapes and whatever other hype-of-the-moment should really be complaining about Modest Mouse.

1. These songs aren't that bad at all.
2. It's a bootleg!!!
3. Good News was a great album, like it or not.
4. Modest Mouse will always be more compelling than whatever new band of cardigan-wearing lit majors decides to make a quasi-twee pop record.

I'm going to have to disagree with the lot of you - I fucking love these songs.

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

Premature Evaluation: Beck - Modern Guilt
