actually, the band didn't do much for me performance-wise. they seemed to
play it pretty straight. they were decent, and they played all of my
favorites (not being a huge fan, i only like about 7 or 8 of their songs,
and got em all), but they weren't enthralling like, ohh say modest

oh yeah, if anyone recorded this in any form,

They don't exactly slam it, but they don't like it... just remember though:
this is the magazine that said Nine Inch Nails' "The Fragile" was the best
album of 1999.
Actually, Modest Mouse doesn't accept tour support from Epic, so the label
can't touch their live show.

If you're going to buy a hip-hop album, "The Low End Theroy" is good, but a
