-
A linear progression of the band through time.
-
Isaac Brock, Eric Judy, and Jeremiah Green. Band began work in impromtu practice area.
-
Band's first full length album. A masterpiece from start to finish. Truly remarkable and life changing, if you let it.
-
Out of print and rare EP. Very difficult to find, and features amazingly coarse and striking guitar tones. Alternate versions of songs on "Long Drive" also found on this disk.
-
An interesting piece of work. Some of the bands more abstract work, features tracks like "Karma's Payment" and "The Fruit That Ate Itself."
-
Another Modest Mouse masterpiece. Probably one of the band's two most watershed releases (along with "Long Drive"). Listen to this one many times to grasp its gravity.
-
Rare Japan-only relese
-
Features samples of the bands work up to this point in their career. The Mouse classic "Broke" can be found here. One of their strongest works for sure right up there with "Long Drive" and "Lonesome Crowded West."
-
Perhaps the last of the great full length albums from the bands. Everyone should hear "The Stars are Projectors" at some point in their lives.
-
A sampling of tracks from the band's earliest days. Incredibly harsh work abounds. A tough but good listen.
-
A really solid EP. "Night on The Sun" is a classic. Definitely worth a listen.
-
This is the album that made this band famous. It features the hits "Float On" and "Ocean Breathes Salty." The album is a let-down from star to finish, although Brock's lyrics do remain solid: "Life handed us a check and we said "we worked harder than this."
-
Fitting title. This album basically signifies the death of all things decent. The band totally descends into a state of mediocre consumerist bliss. Dreadful to think of, even worse to listen to.
-
Okay, so back to some sense of normalcy with songs like "King Rat" and "Guilty Cocker Spaniels." Not their greatest work, but not terrible. This album is made up of songs that did not make it onto "We were dead" but they definitely should have.
