Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Modest Mouse is a neo-classical emo folkabilly electro-acoustic hardcore soft pop rock band.Now let's really talk about them.Formed in Issaquah, Washington State by Isaac Brock, Jeremiah Green, and Eric Judy. It's named for a story entitled "The Mark on the Wall." It goes:And there did it begin: Their legacy of singing about metaphors, so arcanely obtuse that you'd probably need a plum bob, just to get your mind straight after a listen.Their first album: This is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About, was praised for its mellow cum harsh acoustic melodies, along with lush instrumentation, and an odd singing style (the latter of which would become the band's staple).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })They made Interstate 8 and The Fruit That Ate Itself, before releasing their next full length album, The Lonesome Crowded West, which is universally lauded by critics, but sold modestly at best. Then came Night on the Sun (another EP) and Building Nothing Out of Something, a compilation album. Eventually came their most critically acclaimed album to date: The Moon & Antarctica, a bleak and sometimes scary collection of mostly instrumental melancholies. "Mostly instrumental" stems from the fact, that Brock had had his mouth wired shut after his jaw was broken during recording. To say that their follow up: Sad Sappy Sucker, intended to be their debut album, but was shelved, suffered Hype Backlash is somewhat of an understatement.Then came Green's nervous breakdown. Afterwards, he decided quit the band to work on their own side project. Now without a main drummer, he enlisted the help of Benjamin Weikel, as well as a new guitarist (Dan Gallucci). And lo and behold was Good News for People Who Love Bad News, which not only proved to be warmly received by the fans and critics (though not as much as ''The Moon & Antarctica") but was a commercial success as well; nearly half a year after its release, the band saw a surprise hit with "Float On," their most optimistic song to date.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })More good news followed: Jeremiah Green returned, and Johnny Marr of The Smiths replaced Dan Gallucci on guitar. Riding on their newfound (if still relatively small) popularity, they released We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, conceived as an entirely nautical themed album. It was greeted with critical acclaim and a long hiatus followed.It took eight years for the band to release a follow-up album, and Strangers to Ourselves saw more changes to the band's lineup. Not only was Marr gone, but co-founder Eric Judy had left as well. Drummer Joe Plummer also left to join Cold War Kids. The album had decent reviews, but nowhere near the level of acclaim their previous output had recieved. Brock claimed that the band would release a follow-up album as soon as legally possible, but as of 2017, it has yet to materialize.One of the more popular indie bands, they remain diverse and unique in style, outlook, and introspection. | |

Vocal Evolution | |
Modest Mouse (Music) / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: Not a particularly egregious example, but Isaac began singing in a lower tone of voice on Good News... and further developed this new singing style on We Were Dead... He's also much more nasally on their earliest material. | |

Long Song, Short Scene: "3 Inch Horses, Two-Faced Monsters" was a four minute song that was recorded during the sessions for The Moon And Antarctica, but cut down to an unlisted 10 second segue between the songs "A Different City" and "The Cold Part". The full song was featured on Everywhere And His Nasty Parlour Tricks instead. | |

Modest Mouse (Music) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: It can be argued that the lyrics of "The Ocean Breathes Salty" are sung in anger to someone who had committed suicide. As well, "The Cold Part" could be taken to be about the singer himself committing suicide. | |

Epic Rocking: While their songs can range from standard pop length (about three minutes or so) to six minutes, "Whenever You See Fit" (Modest Mouse's longest song at a little over fourteen minutes), "Trucker's Atlas," "The Stars Are Projectors," "Night on the Sun," and "Spitting Venom" are the most epic. | |

Shout-Out: To Eraserhead in their song Workin' on Leavin' the Livin'. They seem to be very fond of Tom Waits. They reference him in song titles, like "The Lounge (Closing Time)," or musically, like in "This Devil's Workday." Dashboard, makes reference to Planes, Trains and Automobiles with the line "The dashboard melted but we still have the radio." | |

Lighter and Softer: The Moon & Antarctica is a weird, zig-zagged example. Musically, it's much more subdued than its rambunctious, borderline punk rock predecessor, The Lonesome Crowded West. On the other hand, it also features some of their most dark and depressing lyrics, which is really saying something. | |

Recycled Lyrics: "I don't know, but I been told, you'll never die, and you'll never grow old..." "I'm on the road to God don't know, my brain's the burger and my heart's the charcoal" In "Tundra/Desert" - "I don't feel and that feels fine"; in "Truckers Atlas" - "I don't feel and it feels great" In "Out of Gas" - "Out of gas, Out of road, Out of car, I don't know how I'm going to go" and in "Other People's Lives" - "On the road, Out of road, Going out, Out of gas, Out of road, Out of car" In "White Lies, Yellow Teeth," an outtake from This is a Long Drive - "People talk in soda pop, they talk it quite a lot / The opinions that I don't give are the opinions I don't got." Then, in "Spitting Venom" (recorded 10 years later) - "You were talking soda pop, you were talking quite a lot / The opinions that I do not give, the opinions I ain't got." They do this a lot, don't they? | |

Fading into the Next Song: Done in between "The World at Large" and "Float On" on Good News for People Who Love Bad News. Also between "People as Places as People" and "Invisible" on We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank. | |

Textless Album Cover: The cover to Strangers to Ourselves is a text-free satellite photo of Venture Out RV Resort in Mesa, Arizona. The word "STRANGERS" actually printed on the cover using matte, transparent lettering. If you angle the cover just right you can see the light reflect off the text. | |
