Fantastick
It's one great song after another. If you don't feel like dancing to Fly Trapped in a Jar, Education and Steam Engenius check your pulse. Little Motel and Parting of the Sensory display Brock's quieter singing abilities and he does have them. The...

Modest Mouse makes an album with an anchored parachute on its cover
It's actually more like a 4.5, but it pains me to see only 4 stars on this album's 'average rating'. It ought to to be about 4.5 stars. I find it hard to compare Modest Mouse albums with each other when it comes to quality, so i will only...

Etceteranough
Making clanky dance pop seems to be a major fetish these days. With Franz Ferdinand and Panic at The Disco revisiting this new wave station, Modest Mouse up the ante on "We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank." There's plenty of choppy pop to go...

not my usual genre of music, but i was quickly hooked by the power and thoughtful lyrics of modest mouse. i played it over and over and quickly sought out another disc to buy. highly recommended and can't wait to see them live.

Dense, Erratic, Awesome
I am a relative newcomer to the Modest Mouse universe - the first album of their I owned was 'Good News for People Who Love Bad News' - but I don't think that disqualifies me from giving an opinion on this record.

Two words: Spitting Venom
Is 'Spitting Venom' the greatest song ever recorded? Quite possibly. But it's hard to say, as 'Parting of the Sensory' and 'Little Motel' are pretty good too. As is 'Dashboard.'

Great Album
Keep in mind I'm a bitter 30 year old who thinks that the best music ever came out when I went to high school (91-95....bands like Alice in Chains and Soundgarden). I have no dog in the emo or whatever fight. Hell, I barely know what all the...

Worst Modest Mouse CD yet.
I am a Modest Mouse fan. I love every single song off of every single album EXCEPT this one. This album moves away from what makes Modest Mouse so great. It was a disappointment. I hope they can redeem themselves. I know they have it in them.

Come A Long Way, Baby
This band has come a long way. They went from making 25 second screw-around tracks a decade ago to this. Now, they are recruiting some of their own idols into their fanhood and even into their band. And with great songs like "Florida", "We've...

Parting of the Sensory
"Parting of the Sensory" is the best Modest Mouse song since "Cowboy Dan" and arguably the best Modest Mouse song ever. That is the best reason for owning this CD. "Florida" and "Spitting Venom" are added bonuses. The rest is all just good...
