Sad Sappy Sucker Chokin on a Mouthful of Lost Thoughts

Modest Mouse

Thirty-nine fragments of jittery, tape-hissing indie rock. A raw, unpolished look at a band finding its voice through basement noise and surrealist sketches.

It's like eavesdropping on a genius having a nervous breakdown in a basement.

A jittery, unpolished collection of basement sketches that feels both claustrophobic and creatively liberated.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition from the banjo-led Sugar In My Coffeeo into the distorted sprawl of Ugly Cassanova
The way the percussion feels like it is falling apart during the bridge of Sad Sorta Angry
The sheer vulnerability of the vocal cracks on the acoustic sketches like Play Taps
