Modest Mouse is an American indie rock band that was founded in 1993 in Issaquah, Washington. With their unique sound and thought-provoking lyrics, they have become a staple in the alternative music scene. Known for their raw and energetic performances, Modest Mouse has captivated audiences around the world with hits like "Float On" and "Dashboard." Their distinct blend of rock, folk, and punk influences sets them apart from other bands in the genre. Whether you're a long-time fan or just discovering their music, Modest Mouse's discography offers something for everyone.
Since their formation, Modest Mouse has released several critically acclaimed albums that have solidified their place as one of the most influential indie rock bands of our time. Led by frontman Isaac Brock's distinctive vocals and introspective songwriting style, the band has consistently pushed boundaries and experimented with different musical styles throughout their career.
With a dedicated fan base and a reputation for delivering unforgettable live shows, Modest Mouse continues to evolve and inspire new generations of musicians. Their ability to connect with listeners on a deep emotional level is what sets them apart from other artists. If you're looking for music that challenges conventions and resonates with your soul, look no further than Modest Mouse.

It's hard to pinpoint the exact moment Modest Mouse started sounding like a real band. For the longest time, singer-songwriter Isaac Brock seemed to exist solely to defy the established rules, forging forward on sheer momentum and ingenuity. Even Pavement looked relatively ordinary in comparison to the band's early releases like 1996's This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About and 1997's The Lonesome Crowded West. But on Good News for People Who Love Bad News, the frontman sounds like he's finally touching the earth, and the band—minus founding member and drummer Jeremiah Green—follows suit. A relaxed mood prevails, not so much in volume but in attitude. On the follow-up to the group's 2000 major label debut, The Moon &amp; Antarctica, big sloppy melodies battle it out with brass on punky epics like "Float On" and "The Ocean Breathes Salty." The lyrics are simpler, the arrangements tamer, but the vitality remains. The prevailing mood is that Modest Mouse has pulled off something extraordinary here: a well-rounded, lovable record that doesn't sound anything like David Gray.
