Modest Mouse - 3rd Planet Live Performance at I-Day Festival

Date: February 9, 2010

In 2010, when Modest Mouse performed live at the I-Day Festival in Bologna, they were riding high on the success of their album 'Good News for People Who Love Bad News,' released in 2004. This album marked a pivotal moment for the band, propelling them into mainstream recognition with hits like 'Float On.' By 2010, they had already solidified their unique sound which melds indie rock with clever lyrics and unconventional melodies. Interestingly, 'Good News' was critical in capturing their evolution as artists, showcasing their signature blend of introspection and upbeat rhythms. It's worth noting that the performance captured in Bologna came during a time when the band was actively touring and gaining new fans, illustrating their dynamic presence on stage. The energy of their live shows, combined with that rich discography, made them a standout act during that era.
