Modest Mouse

On November 5, 2006, Modest Mouse was riding the wave of their critically acclaimed album, 'Good News for People Who Love Bad News,' which had been released in 2004 and brought them mainstream success, including major hits like 'Float On.' This live performance at Avalon in Los Angeles marks an exciting moment in their career as they were just about to release 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank' in 2007. The show introduces several new tracks from that upcoming album, showcasing their evolution and experimentation in sound. Interestingly, it's notable that Johnny Marr of The Smiths was collaborating with them at this time, adding a fresh flavor to their music. The mix of old favorites with soon-to-be hits creates an electrifying atmosphere, capturing the band's signature blend of rock and introspective lyrics.
