Modest Mouse
Modest Mouse Performing Autumn Beds Live at Pitchfork Music Festival
In July 2010, during their performance at the Pitchfork Music Festival, Modest Mouse was riding high on the success of their fifth studio album, "We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank"—released back in 2007. This album marked a significant moment in their career, as it debuted atop the Billboard 200 and featured hits like "Float On," which cemented their place in indie rock history. Interestingly, the band had also experienced a major lineup change around that time, with guitarist Johnny Marr joining the fold after their earlier albums, adding a fresh dynamic to their sound. Performing "Autumn Beds" live showcased the band's evolution, capturing both their trademark sound and the exploration of new musical territories. It's fascinating how their journey, filled with ups and downs, remains deeply intertwined with their performances, and the energy from the festival is palpable in this recording.
