Modest Mouse by Austin Straub

    My favorite track after completing parasite sessions is four fingered fisherman. Its the only song I enjoyed so far. Hopefully Tube Fuit goes better. Update: It did not go better. I'm simply not a lo-fi person. I do enjoy their newer albums though. *Tube Fuit is not a bad but it's not something I would put on my Ipod.
    Uncle Bunny Faces was an interesting album. Some songs had a folkier feel to them which I liked. I thoroughly enjoyed Blue Cadet. Its the first album to show the Modest Mouse style that i like.  Dirty Fingernails made The Fruit That Ate Itself for me, but it was an overall good album. Interstate 8 was good but it's short track list combined with half the tracks being live was disappointing.
    Okay. After muscling through the better half of MM's discography, I have a new-found appreciation for their music. Each album has its own style, but still feels like an MM album. The Lonesome Crowded West is a more spastic album thrown between some chiller releases. It's different, but breaks up the challenge pretty well. Building Nothing and The Moon & Antarctica both have good opening tracks. Finally, there's a growing pop influence beginning at Good News..
