Modest Mouse

In June 2022, when Modest Mouse performed 'King Rat' live at Summerfest in Milwaukee, they were basking in the afterglow of their 2021 album, 'The Golden Casket.' This album marked a significant evolution in their sound, merging their iconic indie rock roots with more experimental vibes. Interestingly, 'The Golden Casket' was released after a lengthy hiatus since their 2015 album, 'Strangers to Ourselves,' which had faced mixed reviews. Live shows during this period were pivotal for the band, as they reconnected with fans and showcased their new material, including the popular track 'King Rat.' It's a lively performance filled with the band's signature energy and reflection, reminding us how they continue to blur boundaries in rock music.
