I used to work for HMV over here in England, and do you think we EVER stocked albums by the likes of Modest Mouse? Of course not. And as a result nobody over here had heard of them or cared about them. Now they have heard of them, and a lot of people are starting to care about them. If that means the small-minded among you are going to choose to hate them, then meh, I really pity the way you allow your own blinkered views to get in the way of enjoying a band.
