Modest Mouse - World At Large

The first Modest Mouse song I ever heard shortly after the release of their third album "Good News For People Who Love Bad News". I immediately fell in love with the sound, acquired their latest work as well as previous albums and became a fan. Although Modest Mouse is now a household name they have been in existence since 1994 ,but their early work was largely unappreciated by the masses. With "Good News For People Who Love Bad News" in 2004 they achieved a sound that struck a cord with a wider audience ushering in an era of indie music mass appeal. Modest Mouse showed up in Calgary in 2004, but I missed them. Just days ago an old friend alerted me to their concert in November here at Mac Hall and we arranged for tickets. They sold out in hours, but with some crafty arrangement I have my entry all taken care of. Look for a full concert post in early November and in the meantime enjoy this somewhat abstract interpretation of "World At Large".
