  • Is Jack Antonoff Overrated?
    :: View email as a web page :: What is it like to have a conversation with Isaac Brock? Actually, it’s a lot like listening to Modest Mouse — he’s somewhat erratic, often explosively funny, and, just when you least expect it, brutally honest and insightful. Believe it or not, but Brock now qualies as a true indie-rock elder statesman. Modest Mouse’s seventh album due out June 25, The Golden Casket, arrives 25 years after their 1996 debut, This Is A Long Drive For Someone With Nothing To Think About. Back then, Brock was a few months shy of his 20th birthday, and he sounded like it. His early songs were rough-hewn, combustible, and lled with pointed observations about small-town blue-collar life that still seem utterly unique in the largely bourgeois world of indie music. The next two Modest Mouse albums, 1997’s The Lonesome Crowded West and 2000’s The Moon & Antarctica, are landmarks of modern indie. Then came 2004’s Good News For People Who Love Bad News, which shockingly transformed them into a multi- platinum mainstream rock band. While their output since then has come slower — just three albums in the past 17 years — Brock remains committed as ever to not repeating himself. Check out this interview where Brock talks about Modest Mouse’s discography. -- Steven Hyden, Uproxx Cultural Critic and author of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's "Kid A" and the Beginning of the 21st Century In case you missed it... The latest episode of Indiecast reviewed the new Modest Mouse album and remembered The Shins.

  • On Themark Again
    6 SCENE FRIDAY NOVEMBER 18 2005 THE BIG Hemade his name with the Red House Painters and INTERVIEW now releases music under the name Sun Kil Moon. The multi-talented Mark Kozelek tells Scene about reworking the songs of Modest Mouse... BY BRIAN CAMPBELL ON THE MARK AGAIN OCOVER AC/DC isn’t unheard of,but it was something of a T shock when Red House Painters’ singer Mark Kozelek decided to recordhis own versions of Bon Scott- era songs. Kozelek, knownfor his delicate vocals and intricateguitar playing, further surprised everyone with what were brilliant reworkings of the material. Hehas also covered Neil Diamond and John Denver and has now gone one better by taking on aband that’s barely been around for a decade – the excellent Modest Mouse. That band is fronted by Isaac Brock,a man with a fierce and unique vocal delivery,but Kozelek has taken songs from a selection of their albums, slowed them down and transformed them into stunning strummed classics that could easily bemistaken for his own. The albumis called Tiny Cities – taken from the Modest Mouse song Tiny Cities Made of Ashes (from their The Moon &Antarctica album) – and the singer has released it under his Sun Kil Moon moniker. The closing trackis Ocean Breathes Salty, from the band’s latest record– their breakthrough – Good News For People Who Love Bad News,and the Kozelek version is sublime. Far from being aModest Mousefan from their earliest days,Kozelek insists he stumbled upon the band. “I was just kind of indifferent to them. I had a girlfriend that liked them at one point but I just kind of dismissed them as one of thesenew trendy bands that come and go,”he said.
