room while she opened the bag...& she pulls out the box...& goes "fuck, 
pretty slow?...wow...carrie, this is...err, really sweet of you? oh, & theres

This whole argument took place on the Guided by Voices listserv about a year

offensive to misuse the word "gay" to mean off-kilter or bent out of shape.
Gay refers to sexual orientation, and some folks can get really pissed if they
think they're being dissed by giving gay a negative connotation.
By the way, my fave MM songs are probably "Cowboy Dan," "Do the Cockroach",
"Heart Cooks Brain", and a million others.  Least favorite are most of the
stuff on the Blue Cadet 3 7" and the Birds vs. Worms 7".  But, no, that
doesn't mean I want to sell either one!

I really like the line "I didn't go to the city the city came to me 
and I want out desperately". I mean, I would never be a part of the
scene described in the song, and cowboy dan sounds like yr average 
white redneck genetic fuckup, but I can relate to that kind of 
alienation, and what it causes in yr life. I actually feel kind of 
sad when I think of cowboy Dan.

[MMouse]: Re: fuck and louis theroux

[WedrenStar]

i saw fuck open for modest mouse (at what was one of modest mouse's first 
"headlining" shows  . . . anyone who has heard the young and the restless 
radio interview from right before the release of the fruit that ate itself ep 
has heard isaac talk about it . . .), and i thought they were phenomenal.  i 
bought "pretty . . . slow", which is an incredible album.  "baby loves a 
funny bunny" is fairly good, too, but since signing to matador, in my 
opinion, it's been mostly downhill.  "pardon my french" and "conduct" both 
pretty much disappointed me.  but the song shotgun hours, off of pretty. . 
.slow, is one of the greatest songs ever written.
but i guess you'd have to hear it.  
anyhow, pretty . . .slow and babylovesafunnybunny are prolly mildly more 
difficult to get ahold of than the matador releases, but well worth the 
search (rhesus records mailorder would have them.  how to get ahold of rhesus 
records, however, is another matter all together.)

by the way, has anyone on here seen the bravo/bbc show "louis theroux's weird 
weekends?"  it's genius!  apparently, he used to be with michael moore's tv 
nation, which is a pretty good indication of the tone of his show.  weekends, 
though, is a bit less attacking in tone, and he appears more sincere.  
anyway, he's my new hero.  highly recommended.

[MMouse]: new Modest Mouse 7"

[eric satnik]

hello y'all
I talked to Isaac for a while last tuesday, Dec. 29, and he said:

Isaac said that the band has been slacking off too much and that he 
really wants to focus on finishing up the many works-in-progress that 
they have been playing off and on the last couple years.

a really long version of some new song (I think he was talking about a 
song that goes "Everyone is afraid of their own life/if you could have 
anything you want you'd still be dissapointed am I right./Nobody really 
knows the one's they love/if you knew everything I thought, I'll bet 
you'd wish that I'd, just shut up")  is going to be out on a 7" in a 
month or so.   

In any case, Modest mouse is either on vacation or hard at work 
recording new stuff.  Those who really know, don't post on the modest 
mouse newsgroup.

i read somewhere that he doesnt have any kinda stance on religion
he isnt into god.. i know that. 
because i read it somewhere. its just something to sing about.

jesus because they sing about jesus. but thats just not true and stuff.

[MMouse]: like.. stuff and stuff

[Novocain Stain]

hey kids thanks for the 33 emails. its about time someone talked and
stuff on this list. 
i just wanna say a few things bceause its america and i have the right
to. 

a: gay . gay gaygay gay gay gay gay gay
i say this not because im trying to offend someone. or because i have a
thing against homosexuals. because i dont. i say it because its fun to
piss off people who are overly concerned about being PC. 

2: my worst favorite modest mouse song, if you didnt get it from that
descriptive thing i wrote, is  dirty fingernails. runner up is dog
paddle, with Exit does not exist to show. and ill tell you why
dirty fingernails is too screamy, crap. just like the kind of stuff i
make up on the spot. yeah big woop.. dirty fingernails. i cant relate
this to anything. its like writing a song where i scream the words "non
whitening toothpaste" over and over. 
dog paddle is pretty much the same way. 
exit does not exist gets me in a bad place because i dont like one
syllable every measure. 
does
not
ex-ist
this song redeems itself with the line "as a matter of fact i dont
recall this photo being taken"

3: whoever said bankrupt on selling talks about st peter meant to say
uh... sytrofoam boots. no big woop. normally i would never say soething
this anal but im in a little bit of a bad mood. 

4: whoever said their favorite song is some song they heard isaac do at
a concert in east bumfuck is pretentious. and since this is america im
entitled to my opinion. and since this is also america  youre allowed to
flame me for that. but what kinda bullshit answer is that. "oh wait my
favorite modest mouse song is the 5 seconds of feedback that isaac made
come out of his guitar right after he said "goodnight" back in 89 when i
saw them in my uncles basement"


i think thats it. sorry for being so crabby. you guys are really nice
and all. i like a list thats not always trying to show each other who
has the bigger modest mouse cock. if you understand what i mean.

[MMouse]: religious allusions/affiliations

[MrNatural1]

i was just wondering if anyone out there knows what isaac's and/or the rest of
the band's take on religion and christianity are, because in a few songs
(especially on "lonesome crowded west") isaac sings about christ, etc.  are
his comments sardonic or his he just preaching what he believes? if anyone
knows (or has any ideas), it would be interesting to hear what you have to
say.

[MMouse]: GAY!

[jayne 666]

Okay fuckin knock it off.  I am bisexual myself and when I first read 
that person's question, I was like, "Hey, I don't like that use of the 
word 'gay' there."  But then I remembered that I am still working on 
trying not to use it as adjective myself.  I sometimes describe things 
as 'gay' , mainly because I use a lot of slang and don't pay attention 
to what I'am saying sometimes, but that's not the point. Do you see what 
I'm  saying?  Because our generation grew up and heard the word 'gay' to 
decribe things that are lame or stupid, we use that word too sometimes 
WITHOUT THINKING.  That's no excuse for using it, but at least it 
explains it.  That person probably didn't mean any harm, they were just 
using slang.  I mean, that dude that said it has been warned, so lets 
just drop it now.

[emily salvatierra]

hello.
least favourite mm song, huh? hmmm...thinking...
this is the sort of thing that fluctuates. when i first heard "the 
lonesome crowded west", it was trailer trash. that's still one of my 
least favorite, just beacuse 1) i listened to it way too much last 
summer 2)i don't know...this sounds a little pretentious, but i like the 
darker, heavier, lonlier mm stuff. trailer trash was too simplistic and 
nostalgic for me. 
favorites: 
shit luck: i'm a sucker for loud, noisy, angry songs about ill-fated 
modes of transportation and the like...
teeth like god's shoeshine: so complex it almost gives me a headache. 
love the transitions and the part about orange julius remind me of a 
friend.
tftai: makes me wanna bust a move.
whenever you see fit: very emotional. i like the "wake up early and 
you'll live to regret it" phrase. i say that to myself every morning 
before falling back asleep...heheh. also, the last dual-guitar-solo 
thing at the end gives me the shivers. beautiful.
dramamine: encompasses almost everything i dig about modest mouse in its 
sound. the lonley, reverb-drenched guitar, the indescribable vocals and 
lyrics. plus, the harmonic bends get me every time.
there are many more, but i am too tired to list them.
later.

[MMouse]: Rumors are like hemorrhoids

[Philip Smoker]

...when they flare up, they're a huge pain in the ass.

The Rumor was that a girl claimed that Issac had
forced himself on her at someone's house.  There was
drinking involved by both parties, if I'm not
mistaken.  I've heard so much bullshit beyond that and
I don't think anyone has any of the facts.  Some claim
that charges were filed, others say not.  If I
remember correctly, they were on tour with the Murder
City Devils, and the accuser was a friend of theirs in
some capacity.  Murder City Devils left the tour
shortly after the rumor began circulating, which is
not to say that they dropped out as a result of the
rumor.  One person alleged that the band claimed they
would never play with MM again.  At the time of the
incident, the Mouse didn't do press or anything else
of public acknowledgment, which only added fuel to the
fire.  One young lady that I believe was subscribed to
this list stated that the accuser was known in some
circles as an indie rock groupie, and that all of this
nonsense was in retaliation to Isaac turning her down
or something.  Others chimed in to say that wasn't
true.  So in other words, I haven't said much of
anything except to perpetuate the rumor.  There was an
article in some half-ass newspaper (The Stranger or
something, I can't remember the name), but even that
was short on facts and long on conjecture.  So there
you have it.

[MMouse]: Favorite song?

[jsayre]

  My favorite song is definitly "Dramamine".
  I was introduced to Modest Mouse through a mixed tape someone made me
with "exit does not exist" and "Tundra/Desert" on it.  I thought they
were pretty decent songs...  The beginning of "tundra/desert" is what
really made me think they had some serious lyrical potential, and the
percussion on both is amazing.  Not to mention the cool-ass guitar
squaks, and squeels of T/D.  They almost sound like some brass
instrument being poorly played.  Anyway...I found "this is a long
drive..." at a used record store and bought it expecting more of the
same up-beat, loud, screamy stuff, and was pleasently surprised when the
first song I heard was the brilliant, super-mellow "Dramamine".  I've
listened to tons of times, and never get sick of it.  The lead line is
excellent.  I also think "Broke", and "whenever I breath out..." are
great.  That is the best 7" ever recorded.  It lives on my turntable,
and spins quite frequently.
  "Teeth like gods shoeshine", and "Truckers atlas" tie for my favs on
"The lonesome crowded west".  When I first got this I thought it was
excellent, but I have since grown tired of it.  I still listen to "This
is a long drive..." several times a week though...can't get enough of
it!  I try to play it a work a alot.  A co-worker said Issac sounds like
Perry Ferrell...what a jackass. (actually now that he mentioned that I
can kind of hear it sometimes...though I try my best not to).
  I think my least favorite song would be "Karmas Payment"...I find it
hard to tolerate sometimes.  I used to hate "dog paddle", but now I like
it because he sounds like he's doing his best Brak from spaceghost impersonation.
  Sorry I wrote a book here.  I'm snowed in, and very bored.

RE: [MMouse]: their opinions...more like air than lead

[Bjorn Warloe]

My favorite modest mouse song comes from the very first time I saw them
live, at Linfield College.  There were only about 40-50 people there and the
mouse drove down after playing the la luna in portland oregon.  They
proceeded to tear the roof off the place.  It was by far the best mm show of
the 6 I have seen.  My favorite part was when issac was playing harmonica
while stopping a rhythm on his guitar pedal and playing one note on the blue
guitar that got ripped off.  He had the guitar behind his back and he'd
reach back with one hand to pick the string when the note started to die
out.  In between harmonica riffs he made up a bunch of lyrics about being
able to do shit because he had a roll bar on his pick up truck, i.e. I can
get real drunk and drive real fast because I just got a new roll bar on my
pick up truck...  It was just a fantastic show, they played for almost two
hours as well.  Anyway I talked to isaac about it another time when they
played portland and he said the song didn't have a name, and he had made up
most of the lyrics on the spot.  If anyone has a tape of a song that was
similar to this, or just includes isaac improving with the harmonica I would
love to hear.

Bankrupt On Selling (for two reasons, (1) I have tried and I cannot sing that 
quickly without fucking it up, and (2) I love the part about St. Peter having a 
monkey)

Cowboy Dan (because its catchy and, well, just plain absurd. I laugh everytime 
I think of being "a major player in the cowboy scene"...good stuff)

Tundra/Desert (I like songs that start out slow then go fast, completely 
orgasmic)

All Night Diner (huh huh, he says ejaculation, huh huh huh)

Gods shoeshine (so damn complex, there are like 12 different songforms in

endangering himself and the people around him, so
Isaac made mention of it.  I've envisioned a scene
similar to that concert in the movie The Doors where
the guy yells, "I love you, Jim!!!" before
belly-flopping out of a balcony and presumably into
infamy.

RE: Duster
I recently completed a trade where the guy tossed in a
Duster/Paul Newman show from Seattle.  I regret to say
that I haven't listened to it yet, but I think he said
it was a soundboard.  I can tape it off for the
interested party, if they would like.

There is a programit's called "Virtual Audio Cable" (I think).  You can
use it to stream audio from a program to disc as a wav file.  With this
wave file, you can take over the world.  Or, convert it to mp3.  -BILL

Does anyone know about this fucked up rumor about Isaac being a
rapist..where it came from etc? What the fuck?---d

Re: [MMouse]: The Promise Ring & Burning Airlines

[Doosu2323]

i thought the promise ring were very bland and boring...kinda the typical 
brand of wuss rock that seems to be sweeping the indie rock world 
lately..their sound was cluttered and besides a couple of their older "hits" 
they didn't do much for me live...

burning airlines on the other hand was definitely worth seeing..much more 
energetic and brought some good ol' fashioned dc rock much more 
interesting to watch and much better sounding live..although not nearly as 
smooth as the cd of course..

thats my two cents
chris ( who's looking forward to seeing snapcase on monday so he can finally 
see a band that's not afraid to have some balls and isn't bitten by the 
terrible boring indie lo-fi bug)

Re: [MMouse]: home taping is recording music

[Doosu2323]

no you can't save them that way..but there is a way that you could southern 
engineer it anywaysbasically running and audio out cord from your 
computer back into your line in on your computer and re recording it ..it's 
pain and the sound would suck since it's real audio..but it's a solution..

Yeah, I was there.  Isaac saw some guy in the balcony who was doing
something weird. I couldn't see it from where I was standing because I
was on the floor.

[MMouse]: Unisex #1 Song

[ARGASM]

Whoever used the word "gay", I think that you should think about 
what you wrote and take it back and apologize because it is a stupid and 
offensive adjective.  Sexual orientation has nothing to do with any Modest
Mouse song nor do I think it should have anything to do with the degree to
which someone thinks a song is "good" or "bad".  Anyway...
I think the greatest Modest Mouse song is easily "Teeth Like
God's Shoeshine", not only for the musical diversity, but also for the
lyrical diversity.  Is it about politicians?  Is it about religion?  Is
it about feeling small in such a large world?  Is it about the social
structure?  Or is it about basic human feelings?  I think it encompasses
all of those questions and that is why i think it is their best song...so
far.

[MMouse]: home taping is recording music

[Matt Evanosky]

does anyone on the list have enough computer savvy to know whether one can
download realaudio tracks to save them like an mp3 file..?
or is that why mp3s are available and realaudio is annoying..
i found a virtual concert website, with apples in stereo and upon further
inspection , 2 timid rodent shows from last yr in chicago...

if my blatant lack of computing skills is too offensive , please disregard
this pointless post...

thinks that the state was pretty great, but viva variety had way better live
talent, like the guy who could swallow big things.

I probably shouldn't be spreading rumors, but a friend of mine (who is on
the list and probably could clarify this *wink, wink, nudge, nudge*) was
talking to Isaac while he was tuning his guitar before there show
(12/29/98 Re-Bar, Seattle).  I suspect he was talking about that All-City
7" that is supposed to come out, but I really didn't press the issue.

Recorded version of Dark side?  I don't know, but I hear they are coming
out with a new 7" pretty quick here (and they have a total of 5 new
songs...after dropping 3 songs).  Biggest Modest Mouse Buttrock
