Modest Mouse

On September 26, 2001, Modest Mouse performed a live set at the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, Georgia, capturing a pivotal moment just after the release of their album "The Moon & Antarctica," which came out earlier that year. This album marked a significant shift in the band's sound, blending their signature indie rock style with more complex and atmospheric elements, showcasing their evolution. Interestingly, this was the first Modest Mouse album to be released under a major label, Epic Records, signaling a broader reach for their music. The recording exemplifies Modest Mouse's raw energy and creativity during a time when they were gaining traction in the alternative rock scene, as fans were beginning to take notice of their thought-provoking lyrics and eclectic soundscapes.
