Modest Mouse
Modest Mouse Live Performance of Bury Me With It at Governor's Ball
In June 2012, when Modest Mouse performed 'Bury Me With It' live at the Governor's Ball, they were riding high off their 2007 album, 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.' This album marked a significant moment for the band, as it debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, a first for Modest Mouse. It's interesting to note that this period also saw the band experimenting with a more polished, accessible sound yet retaining their signature indie rock essence. By 2012, the band was not just maintaining their fanbase but also expanding it, particularly with tracks from their earlier works—fueling anticipation for new material. It's a captivating glimpse into their live energy, reflecting both their established roots and the dynamic evolution of their music.
