- I am not the wonderful creature known as Nardwuar, I am however a fan who saw a reddit post about this interview. As a huge modest mouse consumer, I was shocked that I couldn't find this anywhere on youtube.
The original recording on Nardwuar's site contained about an hour of music playing before and after the interview.

"An Interview with Issac Brock of Modest Mouse (Issaquah, WA) from August 8, 1997!"
Thank you for all of the amazing content you've been busting out for decades Mr. Nardwuar. 
Приколы
Laughing so hard at the 1812 bit.
Isaac: "The Spanish still won the war of 1812."
Nard: "Unfortunately, the Spanish were nowhere to be found-"
Isaac: "Exactly!"
Seems like a clear winner to me, hahaha.
I've been getting into being educated since junior kindergarten and history was what really piqued my interest like little else has until I've discovered math as a young adult.
they actually were involved tho so big brained move from isaac
RIP Jeremiah Green, his legacy will live on in the fans
RIP artist. Thank you for your gifts
"AND THEY STILL GAVE HIM A DOLLAR"
Rest in peace Jeremiah
Damn, they really vibe with eachother lol
Why is this not on Nardwuars main channel? lol how many other gems are hidden like this?? Isaac sounds so young haha
100+ Radio interviews (like this one) are on Nard's official website. Worth searching for those rarities going back to 1989.
Still have the blue cadet 3 7inch from a show about a year before this. The show was definitely a cathartic moment
This is absolutely amazing. I feel like I’ve been waiting to hear this for 20 years. Long live Modest Mouse.
Me too!
Long live SWANS as well!
Woah, had no clue this was a thing this is amazing. EDIT: Nardwuar seems like he's trying to get Isaac Brock to confess to a murder. Love the Dan Galucci bit, that's like the unofficial fourth founding member of MM.
Dude, you rock for sharing this on YT. It made my day, so thank you!
Kinda sad hearing Nardwaur talk about Jeremiah loving all the drummer that had died. RIP Jeremiah Green
Thanks for putting this up, can't wait to listen!
If I ever have the pleasure to speak with Mr. Brock, I will only refer to him as 'Mr. Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse.'
don't you mean Sir Isaac Brock?😂
Serious question. Do you think if I emailed Isaac would he email me back? I wouldn't say anything stupid or put him on a pedestal or anything. I'd love to talk to him, even if it was just one response from him
@houseatreides6683 Honestly... I don't know. I think it would depend on two things:
1.) The mood he's in. He's one of my idols, both as a musician and a human being, but I've heard he's a precarious fella.
And,
2.) The nature and content(s) of the email. I'm sure he'd be more than happy to answer anyone who reaches out, so long as they do so with the respect due any other person (I'm also pretty sure he wouldn't dig the gushing fanboy nonsense). But I also think you'd have to engage his curiosity and/or interests. He's been in a successful band for 29 years, 26 of them as major recording artists; he's done literally thousands of interviews. That being said, I'd also keep the questions to a minimum, and not the kind of questions he's answered countless times in those interviews. He's always come off as contemplative and very appreciative of his fans. So maybe include what his music means to you, why it's so important, or how it's affected your life. I suppose an anecdote about an experience you had seeing him perform might also be of interest to him.
All in all, if you want to email him, you should. Just make the focus of the email express how his music and poetry has touched you, let him know how much it means to you. Be sincere and succinct, but say what you feel you need to express.
And don't take it personally if he doesn't respond. He has a life of his own aside from music, and your email will be one of (likely) hundreds, if not thousands, he'll receive that week alone.
Whatever you decide to do, do so in earnest and with respect.
Did Narduwar just cast an extremely large net and interview anyone that he could? Do we just see the curated highlights of him interviewing bands that have held up to history?
It’s insane that Nard has not only interviewed everyone, every band he’s interviewed was in the early days before they were household names.
He's been doing interviews since he was in high school back in 1987 for local cable access TV, University radio, Music networks & RUclips.
@@SaintMartins True, I’m just extremely impressed by his track record of recognizing and seeking out interviews with legendary bands when they were nobodies, or one among many in a similar genre.
I mean, there were zines and an indie subculture that would all coalesce around certain bands, radio shows, and places, and he was very much plugged-in to all of that.
Even if you didn't like certain types of music, you'd still at least be aware of these bands because you'd see their name around in zines or lists of shows.
Can't believe he did an interview with MM that far back. Crazy enough, that was the same day my now-wife and I had our first date over 25 years ago!
You know how nardwuar be, also that’s very lovely thank you for sharing
that's so sweet :)
Cool! When are you getting divorced?
rip jeremiah
im a huuuuge fan and never heard this or even knew about it until you posted it, thanks! what a gem. went to the site to listen to the couple songs they played, one was summer which you don't get to hear played live very often if at all. also watched his kurt cobain interviews in bc, about a month before he died, possibly the very last interview kurt did
Cobain's interview was January 4, 1994 & he died April 5, 1994 so about 3 month before his death. Also it WAS Kurt's last "TV" interview as it originally aired on a local show in Vancouver, Canada called Soundproof. Kurt did at least 1 "magazine" interview in Europe before his death.
I saw the Mouse in Portland Oregon at the Chrystal Ballroom on January 15, 2000. It was a sold out show. They opened with Truckers Atlas. First and only time I was in a mosh pit.
Me too!
Man....really wish it was video but this is awesome thanks
Thanks for uploading this, I probably wouldn’t have even been aware of it otherwise :)
Woa, had no idea this existed
Incredible
Thanks so much for this! 🙏 💕
Never new this existed! Been wanting this to happen for years what!!
"ya kno dan ballucci has no relation to don ballucc--WAIT I THINK HE DOES :D" isaac is such a gem lmao
I have a good majority of modest mouse albums tattooed on me and i plant on getting Nard on me very soon. love to see this
I can’t believe I never heard this, this is amazing
This is amazing.
LMAO this was awesome I loved the war of 1812 talk
Thank u!
I was visiting Vancouver back in November from Montreal, caught an Arcade Fire show and after that I went to a bar in my hotel. I saw at the bar and this big guy was sitting beside me (Wasn't drinking) and was writing on a note pad. It was Isaac Brock. Modest Mouse is such a good band, saw them the next day at the Commodore Ballroom
That was a great chat.
Never knew Isaac did a nard interview. Awesome suggestion algorithm 👍
This was so good. Didn't k own about the sunny day thing
This is amazing but I could only last about 11 minutes because Nardwuar is such a maniac. RIP Jeremiah.
they both sound so young
The most beautiful town in Washington to own a parking lot.
Perfect lol
Wowzers!!!
Baby Brock
JG was 18!!!!! When they released Long Drive
great interview, but holy shit nard can be so overwhelming to listen to when he speeds up. it's like he's climbing down your throat.
id love a sam prekop interview
I think my favorite part of this interview is hearing how Isaac pretty much *has not changed how he speaks over all these years*
It's something about he talks? He has a slight lisp and it's like he kinda talks from the back from his throat?
Yeah he has a very unique way of speaking, I love it haha
Im slow and didnt realize this was from 97 at first i was like wait... that doesnt sound like isaac. But its just baby isaac 🥹
Saw Modest Mouse back in 2015, still fucking killing it.
I've had like two opportunities to see them but those new songs just don't do it for me lol
@@vekerz I got lucky and their setlist was basically a greatest hits compilation lol
@@vekerz you should next chance you get, saw them twice since golden casket and well over half the setlist was pre- STO both times.
@@vekerz I just seen them live this week for the first time they're touring for Lonesome's 25th anniversary and the setlist was literally Lonesome front to back. Absolutely an all time favorite album of mine I wouldn't go out of my way to see them play basically anything post-Moon and Antarctica but I wasn't gonna miss this tour for the world.
Nardwire knows everything in such a weird way but jello Biafra can't stand him I think he's really cool even though he's such a bizarre person
Lol who cares what jello Biafra likes?
It's all an act. Jello & Nardwuar are good friends. They've done 10 or 11 interviews over the years & acted in 2 indie films together.
4:45 Jeremiah's dead now too :(
oof yeah. unfortunately very prescient 25 years later.......
yessss
*TRIGGER WARNING* Unpoular Opinion?? Isaac was into this conversation for about 11-12 minutes.. I understand Nardwuar and this is his style, but he doesnt know when to shut up and just listen..
Death and modest mouse…oof
Jesus, I hit that section of the interview just as I was reading your comment. Tough listen.
@@timevison2928Same
