Modest Mouse

On June 23, 2012, Modest Mouse performed 'King Rat' at the Orion Music + More Festival in Atlantic City, showcasing their signature blend of indie rock that's both quirky and contemplative. This live recording came after the release of their album 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank' in 2007, which marked a pivotal point in their career, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200. The performance at this festival highlighted their evolving sound and commitment to live music, especially as they explored new themes and instruments during this era. Interestingly, this festival was curated by Metallica, which illustrates Modest Mouse's wide-reaching appeal across genres. They’d be gearing up for more innovative work in the coming years, reminding fans why they remain an essential part of the indie music scene.
