Modest Mouse

In July 2010, when Modest Mouse played live at the 1st Bank Center in Broomfield, they were riding the wave of their 2007 album, "We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank." This album went on to debut at number one on the Billboard 200, marking a significant high point in their career. It featured the hit single "Float On," which had already established the band as a household name in indie rock. By the time of this live recording, the group's eclectic sound had been evolved, showcasing their unique blend of rock and melancholy that fans were eager to hear. Interestingly, Isaac Brock, the frontman, has often spoken about how personal experiences shape their music, which adds a layer of intimacy to their live shows. Despite the sound issues mentioned in this particular concert review, their stage presence and engaging performance still left a lasting impression on the audience.
