Ice age heat wave, cant complain...

Modest Mouse is a seven part Indie Rock band from Washington. They released their debut album, "This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About", in 1996. Since then, Modest Mouse has released five total studio albums as well as five EPs. They gained mainstream success in 2004 with their fourth album, "Good News for People Who Love Bad News" due to songs such as "Float On" and 'World at Large".

This past August they released their newest EP, "No One's First and You're Next" which is available in vinyl and digital form. The new single on this album is "Satelite Skin", which they performed on Late Night With David Letterman on March 19th 2009.




Modest Mouse has seen several members come and go over the last few years. In 2004, founding member Dann Gallucci was replaced by Johnny Marr, formerly of "The Smiths". This had a notacable impact on their 2006 CD, "We Were Dead Before This Ship Even Sank".

As of now, Modest Mouse is still touring for their newest EP, and is currently in the United Kingdom through mid December.
