[MMouse]: New ATDI
I just picked up the new ATDI over the weekend and I know a lot of people were not too impressed with it, but I personally think it is incredible. Very good energy and it almost reminds me of Far. Anyone hear Far? got a chance to see them? see any similarites? can't stand them? Love'm? Check out "Tin Cans With Strings To You." Very good album and I feel it is a lot like the new ATDI. I was also happy to see Andy Wallace mixed it. They're really getting the big boys. -t "insert cool band rock quote here!" __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[MMouse]: GOD DAMN!!!
God Damn, that was an incredible show. I can't believe how great Modest Mouse was last night. There set list was awesome and the best versions of Doing the Cockroach, Teeth like god's shoeshine, and Cowboy Dan I ever heard. I think Isaac screamed in his guitar on all three of these. They played a very good mix of old and new stuff and even though I do like the new album a lot more now, I still got an even better appreciation of if after hearing some of the songs live once again. The set list was something like.. (not in order) 3rd planet Wild Pack of Family Dogs Paper thin Walls Doing the Cockroach Talking shit about a pretty sunset I came as a rat Teeth like god's shoeshine Trailer Trash Perfect Disguise Tiny cities made of ashes Breakthrough Cowboy Dan I think there might have been more, but my mind is still a little cloudy. That would be a great show to have been mp3'd. __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - Free email you can access from anywhere! http://mail.yahoo.com/

[MMouse]: sunnyday and designs
I was curious if anyone got to see Sunny Day Real Estate play at the Music Millennium here in Portland on Wednesday. It was awesome to see them play in such a small record store on such a small stage, and the turn-out was pretty good as well. They only played a handful of songs and the atmosphere was very casual, but great none the less. Also where is the page with the T-shirt designs on them? I still need to send mine to whoever is accepting the designs, but it'll be there soon. -todd __ Do You Yahoo!? Get Yahoo! Mail - Free email you can access from anywhere! http://mail.yahoo.com/

[MMouse]: Night on the sun
I just got the Night on the Sun 12" yesterday and it is really good. A nice sweet little taste of the mouse before the new album comes out. If I'm not mistaken "Night on the Sun" is the same version as on the Japanese EP, but "You're the Good Things" is a complete new version or at least a remix. "I Came as a Rat" sounds like the same version on the new one and "Willful Suspension of Disbelief" sounds great. I'm curious what will be on the other 12"s that are coming out since this is suposedly in a series of three. Enjoy! -t __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Photos -- now, 100 FREE prints! http://photos.yahoo.com

[MMouse]: eating my words
After hearing what people have had to say in listening to the MM and how it tends to grow on you like a bad habit after a few dozen listening sessions, I must agree. About a week ago I wrote somewhat of a rant and rave about how my first impression of the new album was disappointing, but I have to admit that it has grown on me. Thinking back to when I first heard Modest Mouse, I must admit that I was not "holly shit, this is the best thing ever!!!" It took some time to grow on me (very quickly I must say), but the same seems to be happening with the new album. Hopefully in time most Modest Mouse fans will grow to like the new music and support them. I'm sure we all will. God, I'm an optimistic dork! __ Do You Yahoo!?

[MMouse]: going against the grain
On the topic of... ...bands that have done the exact opposite of sell-out...Branch off in musical directions against the grain of popular culture despite the threat of million dollar losses.. I've got to give a high five to Mike Patton of Faith No More for his relentles pursuit of experiments in music composition, despite the break up of Faith No More, ie Mr. Bungle and Fantomas. Anyone had a chance to see either one of these? Take a listen to the Fantomas CD and imagine them pulling it off live to a "T." Two parts Mr. Bungle, one part Melvins, and one part Slayer. The only shitty part about seeing that live is all the idiots expecting Faith No More songs. __ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo! Messenger. http://im.yahoo.com
[MMouse]: best shows
Best shows that I have seen, Fugazi with 764-HERO and Red Stars Theory in Springfield Oregon (of all places) last year Neil Young played the HORDE tour a few years ago and while some other band was playing (I think it was the Squirll Nutt Zippers-y h) he came out to a tent off to the side and started taking requests. More highlights of that show were Morphine and Ben Folds Five. Other shows I've seen that I don't quite remember when they were (those are the best ones) were Far on a couple of occasions, the Pixies several years ago, Primus on their Frizzle Fry tour, Modest Mouse of course, Wilco...m now I'm just fishing. By the way, in response to this whole GAS OUT thing, why not just fuck your cars for a few days and try walking or riding your bike. When we stop buying gas for just a few days we still make up for it the days preceding it and folling the strike. That does nothing. If you want to make a real stance, encourage everyone you know to ride their bikes sometimes, walk, or at least consider carpooling. The first step towards a solution is recognizing the problem. __ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo! Messenger. http://im.yahoo.com
[MMouse]: modest mouse-ish music
Yes, Modest Mouse is blatantly influenced by the Pixies, lyrics as well as music composition. It was really good to hear someone mention The Feelings. Great band, similar at times I guess, but a completely different level of appreciation. As far as other bands that sound like Modest Mouse, there are going to be the ones that you'll hear very often like Red Stars Theory, 764-HERO, Built to Spill, Pavement... and thats what comes to me quickly. I'm sure others will respond to this with a more extensive list. __ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo! Messenger. http://im.yahoo.com
