In the summer of 2015, Modest Mouse was on the upswing after releasing 'Strangers to Ourselves', their first album in nearly eight years, which came out in March of that same year. This live recording from The Institute in Birmingham captures the band in a moment of renewed energy and creative exploration. 'Strangers to Ourselves' received mixed reviews but showcased the band's signature blend of indie rock and lyrical introspection, making it a triumphant return after a long hiatus. Notably, this album marked the debut of new members, including keyboardist and guitarist, which shifted their dynamic.
