This song is prophetic. I have heard this track 100's of times, and it's only this time that I see how deeply these metaphors and the story pierced into the future that we occupy. "And he said I am not allowed much danger. Keep in line, you're an old friend stranger. You'll burn me in effigy and I'll burn you in effigy."
Most modest mouse fans agree they are so great in the drawer early albums. Lonesome crowded west is arguably a top 10 influential alternative album from that decade. It's a masterpiece of unpolished perfection and there isn't a better album to encapsulate melancholy or despair in solitude I highly recommend anything off this my favorite bring a more bluegrassy song styrafoam boots Theres also an album of bluegrass covers I'll request
@@Io-vz2jq He's talking about the bluegrass tribute to Modest Mouse titled "Pickin' On Modest Mouse" - he's not calling Modest Mouse themselves bluegrass.
Also MM fans nowadays always spurning their later albums like they weren't bumping Good News and We Were Dead back in the day. I love their earlier stuff, but it's not a dichotomy. I can't even say they got worse with age because they were putting out absolute bangers like King Rat and Whale Song as B-sides.
Thanks for the reaction. keep em coming, Anything off this album, Its a long Drive, Building Nothing out of Something and the Moon and Antarctica... if you want the raw melodic shit. My vote ' Life Like Weeds' !!!!!
Can't wait to see your reaction to this AMAZING song. Another AMAZING, their MOST AMAZING is a song called Life Like Weeds!! Would love to see your reaction to that one!!
Hey kerrymac1 I like what you are doing. I love modest mouse and this track. You should check out Cursive. Sink to the beat is one of my favorite tracks. Anything off of The Ugly Organ is awesome.
Modest Mouse are a very talented band who have a lot of respect within the music community. You should definitely react to more of their stuff. Not sure if you take recommendations from viewers but Life Like Weeds, The Stars are Projectors and Cowboy Dan are a few good ones. They honestly have a lot though.
The part you really liked at the end there, that's classic Isaac Brock guitar playing. Weirdass twittering bird sounds, lots of sorta octave powerchords. Those first few albums are full of stuff like this, especially with the extended instrumental breaks toward the ends of tracks.
Flogging Molly or Dropkick Murphys would be very good bands for you to check out. They blend Celtic music with Punk music. Plus since this is supposed to be St Patrick's Day week these bands are a perfect fit for the holiday that has been canceled due to the coronavirus.
A few rare tracks some Modest Mouse fans may have not heard but are excellent. Nothing New Dead End Job at the Dead Letter Office (wrong decision) Ocean Breaths Salty (early version) I prefer this over the albums cut. Sorry that I can't link them since my pc took a crap on me.
Don't know if you'll see this, but I would love to see you listen ten to Spitting Venom by Modest Mouse. Also, you should check out The Airborne Toxic Event@
As a hardcore Modest Mouse fan, this is one of the very few songs I've never liked. It definitely has their sound, but it just seems too in your face for me. I don't get it, cuz they have other harder sounding songs that I love. To each their own I guess.

All of Modest Mouse's songs feel like a journey.
Surely!
YEAH YEAH 🤘🏻😁

"tundra / desert"
Late to the party but you are great. Glad i found your videos.
Glad you like them!
Superb superb song and album.
Love the "malls are the soon-to-be ghost towns" line. The song was written in the 90s and they were 100% right
No doubt!
I think it’s so funny how the modest mouse fans have infiltrated this channel. Awesome vid buddy
Modest Mouse fans were here before everyone else!
That is exactly why I’m here. Keep it up
Love it !
This song is the shit , every note , I miss the pit when this song drops.
My buddy's mom died of covid and his dad was in the hospital for 3 months...
"It doesn't seem like it's that dangerous of the disease." Hasn't posted in 10 months. I hope he's ok.
I know, I know. I really need to find time to post more videos. I am still alive and well, just crazy busy!
You should react to parting of the sensory, another great modest mouse song
Thanks for the suggestion :) I will put it on my list and thanks for watching!
I agree with Parting of the Sensory too!!
Modest mouse edit the sad parts is amazing. Brings awareness.
Yes they do
Seems like the virus is a bit more dangerous than we thought..
more than ANYONE thought!
Bro can’t believe you took the time to do this !
You’ve got one more sub !
Love modest mouse
They know music
they understand poetry !

Bluegrass? Not my favorite genre, but I'm intrigued. Thanks for the request!

Wish he’d go back to it
you should react to doin' the cockroach and cowboy dan off the same album as this :)
YESSSS and Tundra/Desert and Make Everyone Happy off their first album. Guitars that sound like seagulls are the kink I didn't know I had.
love the breaking bad shirt!
Me too! I need a Better Call Saul shirt now. :)
Flogging Molly or Dropkick Murphys would be very good bands for you to check out. They blend Celtic music with Punk music. Plus since this is supposed to be St Patrick's Day week these bands are a perfect fit for the holiday that has been canceled due to the coronavirus.
Already familiar with both of those bands. I even saw Flogging Molly live in Dallas a few years back. The put on a hell of a show!
A few rare tracks some Modest Mouse fans may have not heard but are excellent.
Nothing New
Dead End Job at the Dead Letter Office (wrong decision)
Ocean Breaths Salty (early version) I prefer this over the albums cut.
Sorry that I can't link them since my pc took a crap on me.
No worries! I will put these on the list. :) Keep watching!
kerrymac1 the early version of oceans breathes salty is a must...the album cut is great but the early version is phenomenal
Eeek - COVID projection freezing cold take, granted this was back in March 2020. 225,000 dead now. Thanks, Donald.
Hopefully we are mostly past it now.
Don't know if you'll see this, but I would love to see you listen ten to Spitting Venom by Modest Mouse.
Also, you should check out The Airborne Toxic Event@
Night on the sun
Stars are projectors
Trailer trash
Doing the cockroach
Thanks for the suggestions!
Wrong lyrics for much of it
doesn't surprise me. :)
oh boy that corona talk in the beginning didn't age well, good video though :)
Yeah ..who knew?
Are you ok?
I am now. Had a rough Fall, but I'm feeling MUCH better now.
Thanks for the concern!
Intro didn't really hold up lmao
Who would have guessed at the start?

My least favorite has to be sleepwalking.
@@kakawyayo3478 interesting. That's one of my favorites. To each their own, but much love for ya either way. 🙂
@@Nikadeemus88 Picking a favorite song from them is impossible for me
@@aresop8701 It really is
@@aresop8701 my favorite depends on which day it is.
