Modest Mouse
Modest Mouse Live Performance of Ocean Breathes Salty at The Anthem
In the summer of 2021, Modest Mouse was riding high on the waves of their latest album, 'The Golden Casket,' which came out just a couple of months earlier in June. This album, characterized by its eclectic sound and introspective lyrics, marked their first studio effort since 2015. During the August 18 live recording at Stage AE in Pittsburgh, fans experienced an energetic blend of old favorites and fresh tracks, truly capturing the band's evolution. Known for their quirky yet profound style, Modest Mouse consistently pushes musical boundaries, and the choice to perform 'Ocean Breathes Salty'—a fan favorite from their acclaimed 2004 album 'Good News for People Who Love Bad News'—showcases their ability to resonate with longtime supporters while also embracing new sounds. This concert was more than just a performance; it was a celebration of their unique artistry and enduring connection with their audience.
