He goes to the desert, fires his rifle in the sky
And says, "God, if I have to die, you will have to die!”

I’m the drunken Trucker’s Atlas spammer and I approve of this thread.

He sticks his leg up, like a pie
And screams to the sky
“Why god, did you have to lie?”
And with a swift motion
He jumps in the ocean
Forever more

A guy comes up
He's looking pretty 8 ball
Snaggle tooth smile
Sits down at my table
Puts his arm around me
starts to share his information
He said he said he said

I love modest mouse. My wife doesn't understand it but whatever. 'This is a long drive for someone with nothing to think about' is road trip bliss.

Edit all the sad parts. Spitting venom. So much good shit I can't even think about. The good times are killing me is probably why i don't remember titles, just moments.

Listening to trailer trash right now.

Modest Mouse = MM = Master Mason

>>509539357 (OP)
I miss the 2000's, the 2020's so far are fucking lame.

Nothing better than a Mouse thread

Enjoy brothers

>>509541449
listening to whatever go make some friends right now
i kind of wish they had done more of this tom waits-ish kind of stuff

I can't really listen to modest mouse anymore. Reminds me of the before times. Before everything went fuck-up. Too sad to listen to those songs and remember how I used to have zest for life.

>>509539357 (OP)
I was 12 when Good News came out and I loved it. Tried listening to their other stuff around that time, but it sounded too discordant for my retarded tween brain to handle. Wasn't until my late teens/early 20s that I really started appreciating their older work. Polar Opposites is the song I think about the most from this album
>And I know I should go but I will probably stay

One year
Twenty years
Forty years
Fifty years
Down the road in your life
You'll look in the mirror
And say, "My parents are still alive."

The only Modest Mouse song I know is “Bury Me With It” and that song is weird as hell but it’s cool

>>509542077
Say uh, oh yeah, life goes on, long after the thrill of livin' is gone

idk why op keeps making random modest mouse threads but i’m all for it. one of my top favorite bands. the lyrics just hit the spot

>>509541806
god damn that was on point

>>509539357 (OP)
Modest mouse deserves way more love. Great band that suffered from the success of float on

>>509539357 (OP)
Cool band if you're an 18 year old alcoholic. Any older than that, you're a loser with shit taste.

>And I claim I'm not excited with my life any more
>So I blame this town, this job, these friends
>The truth is it's myself
>And I'm trying to understand myself
>And pinpoint where I am
>By the time I get things figured out
>I've change the whole damn plan
shit spoke to me in my 20s

YOU BLEACHED YOUR HAIR AND YOU PAWNED YOU SKIS
AND THEN YOU SOLD OUT FOR THE SHADE OF THE PALM TREE SCENE

Head South is so fucking good, gotta be a top 5. Edit the Sad Parts, Trucker’s Atlas, Novocain Stain (Live), 3 Inch Horses Two Faced Monsters.


For old cuts Karma’s Payment and Dukes Up are both magic

You had to be there zoomie

I remember blasting TLCW in my car on long drives on the way to see my big ass floozie, studded belt wearing, fox racing hoodie, sort of alternative for the time but not exactly gf's house that was empty in the rural woods so we could have a fuckfest all weekend.

2009 in New England, all the windows rolled down and humid summer air flowing through the car as I do 50 mph through rural state routes (not interstates) for 150 miles smoking cigarettes and blasting this album. If I could package this feeling it would be a best seller

yes I copypasta and still blast Modest Mouse when drinking

For me it’s Night on the Sun

Everytime you think you're walking, you're just moving the ground
Everytime you think you're talking, you're just moving your mouth
Everytime you think you're looking, you're just looking down

>>509544318
Outstanding

im still waiting for 3 inch horses two faced monsters to be used in a movie into. would be kino.

>>509543837
>Zoomie

I'm in my thirties. I've seen MM multiple times live. I just realized Modest Mouse is actual dog shit. They aren't deep, half the songs are utterly unlistenable. It's actual hipster bullshit. Let me guess, you've cried to Baby Blue Sedan? Kek, loser!

can't do it not even if sober
can't get that engine turn over

dude these are so good. he nails soad mr brightside

>>509543504

sucks we are stuck with cobain still being king corpo rock faggot so many people were much more talented then that cunt

>>509544998
its so tiring anon

>>509545129
its not only that he pushed down everyone throats that they all need to be whiney faggots that care about things beyond there control when you think about it he was the real start behind all the mental illness that has plagued society since his death

>>509544626
I see where you can draw these conclusions and you’re not entirely wrong but also maybe you just lived an easy sheltered life and haven’t experienced anything that you can relate to the music with

You’re like probably into the Beatles or lady gaga

>>509544998
I always hear this shit but it would literally be the same situation if you swapped Cobain and Nirvana's fame with say Cornell and Soundgarden or Stayley and AIC. The real genius of the 90s was Trent Reznor though.

>>509539357 (OP)
i'm on the way to god don't know or even care
my brain's the weak heart
and my heart's the long stairs

>>509543504
you will never watch modest mouse music videos on MTV, zoomer

>>509545370
nope kurt cobain was the most faggoty faggot out there literally a proto leftist tranny back in the 90s also was a sick fuck that used to torture his cat

>>509545515
>the most faggoty faggot out there literally a proto leftist tranny back in the 90s
He doesn't know about Genesis P Orridge

>>509545515
imagine the 90's tranny shit we would have gotten if he didnt pull the trigger
he might have turned out to be a bigger faggot than tom gabel

Woke up this morning and it seemed to me,
That every night turns out to be
A little more like Bukowski.
And yeah, I know he's a pretty good read.
But God who'd want to be?
God who'd want to be such an asshole?

>>509545370
>The real genius of the 90s was Trent Reznor though.
Trent just copied Fetus from a decade earlier

lulz, amazing cope because you can't admit the music you love is shit. Like I said, I was a fan. At one time, MM meant more to me than any other artist. You can't sincerely listen to them and still think it's good and have an I.Q. of over 100

>>509545893
>they copied this band that sounds nothing like them, you can tell because it has the word "Nail" in it!

Isaac is the John Steinbeck of rock n roll

>>509539357 (OP)
On the way down, they saw a lot they don't remember
And if you asked them how, they'd say that gravity's how they got there
And if you want them now, you could just pull on the lever
And say, "I'm hung up on this decade"

>>509543075
Did you just quote Faggot Cougar Mellencamp in a modest mouse thread? Kys leaf

>>509539357 (OP)
I saw them live two weeks ago. They sounded better than ever, but it's because Isaac brought in a bunch of absolutely sick session musicians. Way different than back in '01 when it was him, Jeremiah, and Eric. As they got more proficient, they lost what made them great. Still my favorite band ever.

>>509547346
saw them at the amphitheatre in florida. the sheer amount of instruments they bring on stage is nuts

>>509539357 (OP)
i'm on my way to god don't know
my brains the burger and my hearts the coal
in this life that we call home
the years go fast and the days go so slow

slow

>>509542077
It's weird listening to pre-2010s music. World still had soul and a bit of optimism, even in the post-9/11 world things felt like ultimately they would be all right. The 00s felt like a rough patch that we would pull through. Kind of funny that's basically Float On's theme.
2012 and on the world just became Hell.

>>509539357 (OP)
Really lame band very millenial coded

>>509547763
At this point, I think the world really did end when they fired up that CERN collider. I don't even know if life is real anymore. They fucked with time, too. The days go WAY faster than pre-2012. I want out.

>>509547913
Millennial shit was cool through the 00s. Millennials didn't become cringe til the 10s.

>>509546662
this. I was at one of their shows and my girlfriend at the time started bleeding from her vagina and forced me to walk her to the restroom. They were just starting their final encore and Isaac Brock looked directly at me like I was a huge faggot.

>>509547346
Did you see one of those shows with Doug Martsch?

wow a lot of extremely uncool kids itt, kindly fuck off.
i actually didn't know anyone else who listened to this album but i freaking loved it.
absolutely perfect car ride album.
i think it's the musical confidence that makes it so good.
