Modest Mouse

In July 2012, Modest Mouse performed 'The Whale Song' live at the Wellmont Theater in Montclair, New Jersey. This was a period following the release of their 2015 album, 'Strangers to Ourselves,' a significant landmark as it marked their first album in nearly eight years. Before that, the band had dropped 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank' in 2007, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. This live performance captures the raw energy of Modest Mouse, showcasing their knack for blending introspective lyrics with eclectic melodies. It's particularly noteworthy how the band maintained their unique sound, steeped in indie rock and folk influences, that drew a cult following over the years. Fans often resonate with the band's themes of isolation and existential musings, making their live shows a profound experience.
