Modest Mouse

In July 2008, when Modest Mouse delivered their high-energy performance at Bogart's in Cincinnati, they were riding the wave from their album 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank,' which had dropped earlier that year. This album marked a major milestone for the band, as it debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, showcasing their growing popularity and evolution in sound. Notably, 'Satellite Skin,' featured in the live recording, would later appear on the special edition of their album 'No One’s First and You’re Next,' reflecting the band's knack for captivating and innovative songwriting. Interestingly, this live show highlights a period when Modest Mouse was experimenting with more expansive sounds while staying true to their indie roots, ensuring they remained a staple in the alternative rock scene.
