Modest Mouse

In June 2000, Modest Mouse was riding the wave of their album 'The Moon & Antarctica,' which had released just a few months prior in March. This record marked a pivotal moment for the band, as it showcased their evolution into more experimental and complex sounds. Recorded at the WOW Hall in Eugene, Oregon, this live performance of 'Dramamine' captured the raw energy and introspective lyrics that fans had come to love. Interestingly, 'Dramamine' itself was one of their earlier tracks, originally from the 1996 album 'Lonesome Crowded West,' known for its dreamy, haunting quality. By this time, the band's fanbase was growing, and they were beginning to gain significant attention, setting the stage for their future successes. The performance highlights their knack for creating an intimate atmosphere, even within larger venues.
