Spin Magazine's Band of the Year???

Date of Review:  Feb 7, 2005
Review: When I learned that Modest Mouse came out of Seattle, I nearly slit my wrists.

Over the past few months, I have heard an uprising of New Age Disco (as I like to call it) infesting the airway like a plague. Bands such as Modest Mouse and...

Good News for People Who Love Good Pop Songs

Date of Review:  May 2, 2004
The Bottom Line: An above average album that doesn't try to be something it's not and sometime's that involves being something that already exists.
Review: Now, for some, this change in direction for Modest Mouse is for the worse; it's "selling out" It's an attempt to get into the mainstream and make some $$$. I like to think of it a slightly different way. It's successfully bringing good, quality...

Good News for People Who Love... Modest Mouse

Date of Review:  May 31, 2004
Review: I don't care about what anybody else says about this album... it is awesome. I have been listening to Modest Mouse for a long time, and I am sick of people using the "selling out" complaint to explain the bands change in sound. So they changed a...

Modest Mouse -- Music to Get Drunk By

Date of Review:  Jun 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: Good News For People Who Love Bad News by Modest Mouse is definitely one of the weirder albums I've heard in my time.
Review: Now THAT'S an interesting cover. And WOW, the CD is pink! The only other pink CD I have is Lisa Loeb's Firecracker. All of a sudden, we've seen Modest Mouse sitting in the more prominently placed sections at music stores, and you might have even...

Attempting to avoid an abused pun

The Bottom Line: Modest Mouse displays great musicinaship and diversity in a great album that you wont want to miss
Review: Isaac Brock (lyrics/guitar)
Eric Judy (bass)

Modest Mouse Dressed To Impress With Their Good News

Date of Review:  Jul 28, 2005
The Bottom Line: Modest Mouse is a strange, fun band to listen to, if you can handle their sound.
Review: One of the most popular indie bands was finally given the recognition they deserve. Modest Mouse has stayed in the underground scene for more than ten years before Good News For People Who Love Bad News was released. Their unique sound mixes rock,...

Good News For People who Love Good Music

Date of Review:  Jul 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: Yea i would recommend it. It has great music and great lyrics.
Review: Good News For People who Love bad News is the Newest Album by Modest Mouse, a band so few people have heard of they thought it was new.

To begin with, I cannot honestly say for which genre this album belongs. Its not exactly rock if you...

A Modest Mouse, a Paradox of a Title, and a [insert holiday here] Miracle

Date of Review:  Dec 23, 2004
The Bottom Line: Goodness. On any given day, any given song on this album might just be my favorite. Sounds like a classic to me.
Review: I don't care what holiday you're celebrating / have celebrated this time of year, whether it be Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, Festivus, Boxing Day, or even Chrismukkah (because yes, the O.C. rocks, I can admit it, so can you) -- for most people,...

For those about to mope, we salute you

Date of Review:  Apr 4, 2004
The Bottom Line: Modest Mouse is, like, one of the coolest bands in the universe and...well, this ain't their best album. But it is still really good.
Review: I don't know exactly what it says about the current socio-political climate in the United States, but there seems to be quite the trend in the rock music biz toward more angst-ridden, mopey tracks getting played on the radio. Denizens of the...

Good News for Indie Rock Fans

Date of Review:  Oct 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: Despite criticism, this album is a great intro to indie music, and the whole is more than the sum of its parts.
Review: You may have heard a lot of things about this album. This is Modest Mouse's most successful and accessible release yet. This has caused indie "fans" to label it their "sell-out" album. This claim stems simply from the fact that indie fans are a...
