Modest Mouse

In September 2010, Modest Mouse was riding high on the waves of their album 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank,' which had been released back in 2007. This marked a defining moment for the band as it was their first studio album to debut at number one on the Billboard 200, solidifying their place in alternative rock. The live recording of 'Here it Comes' at the Into the Great Wide Open Festival in Vlieland showcases the band's distinctive sound, blending quirky lyrics with energetic performances. Notably, this festival is known for its picturesque setting and vibrant atmosphere, making it a perfect backdrop for Modest Mouse's eclectic vibe. Plus, they were riding a wave of critical acclaim and a growing fanbase, largely stemming from their previous albums that laid the groundwork for their evolution. 'We Were Dead' introduced a more polished sound while maintaining their original charm, striking a balance that resonated with both old fans and new.
