^^Good News for People Who Love Bad News too...

Rickenbacker · 03-08-2010, 04:11 PM

Nah. They totally sold out on Good News. It pales in comparison to the majority of their previous work.

Fuck man, I thought you were intelligent. So much for that train.

1991....

Threeof my favorite bands posting their biggest albums in the same year: Nirvana - Bleach, and Metallica - Metallica (black album), and Pearl Jam - Ten. Three of the biggest rock albums ever, all in one year. This was the last major wave of rock music imo, as the rest of the ninties were dominated by slower alternative rock and pop-punk.

I was kidding

Incidentally, that there is the token hipster comment whenever anybody is talking about Modest Mouse. Honestly I'm not a huge fan of them to begin with. I really only like the song "Gravity Rides Everything" from The Moon and Antarctica, and some of the songs off No One's First and You're Next. Frankly though, I can't discern any noticeable difference between the sound of Good News and that of any of their earlier stuff.

Nirvana - Bleach,

Yeah man, 89 was a great year.

This year (always, no matter the year), but 1973 was oddly filled with excellent albums.

SATCHMO · 03-08-2010, 09:42 PM

I'd would listen to a single song of anyone's choice from The Moon Vs. Antarctica repetitiously for an entire year than to have to listen to Float On ever again.
