Default Re: We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank - Modest Mouse

No strong opinions about the new album. I wasn't captivated with WWDBtSES even after a few repeat listening. I put it away and will most likely revisit it within the next few months (I have a list of stuff to listen to...).

The band does have a stretch of 3 albums that have held my attention though:
This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About (1996)
The Lonesome Crowded West (1997)
The Moon & Antarctica (2000)

The Lonesome Crowded West is my favorite of the three and I could ramble on about how great I think the album is and how much I love the lyrics and how I think it is one of the best albums ever made, but I won't.

That's no fun. You need to go listen to it yourself.
