Modest Mouse are one of the best bands around now. Anyone who disagrees needs to stop listening to "Float On" and start listening to Lonesome Crowded West or The Moon & Antarctica.

They are good. The Float On video looks like a sheep hearder's acid trip.

Where in here did i classifiy them as indie post 2001?

I stated "They were indie" in which i was referring to pre-2001

get the facts straight.

modest mouse owns all. of course they're indie what do you think? they're pop yeah. well all those ppl who think they're their biggest fans b/c they listen to "float on" on MTV can die. b/c "good news for ppl who love bad news" is merly a medicre album. and its not like they've completely 180'd their style. just b/c they got an extra guitare and new drummer. even tho. Jerimah Greene just re-joined. do you realize how many albums they have? i just try to hold tight to them and not let those "mall-core" kids bring me down with their ignorant "appreciation" for "music" no matter how big they get they'll never go to the extremes of selling out like blink, simple plan, GC, or dashboard, ever, they're orginal to the core and thats all that matters,

amen. i dont think that good news is a mediocre album at all. ROLLING STONE called it the best album theyve heard in 3 months. mm has been around for more than a decade and just because they got a good flow for float on doesnt institute selling out. people always say that bands sell out...some truly do...but others stay true.

I consider it selling out when a band bitches about other bands "selling out" by signing with a big record label, then do it themselves. The were all "indie for life." Then they sigend with epic, which was a total hypocratic act to their attitude. They basically shot themselves in the foot with their prior statements. The only thing I can constitute for their behavior is possibly they lost that "indie for life" attitude and matured and decided big labels aren't that bad.
