INFO: Modest Mouse is one of those big alternative rock bands that came out of the post-grunge era in the US. By putting out quality music, doing interesting collaborations and never breaking part, the band members moved to the forefront of modern rock music. But most fans would say that one of their albums did most of the work for them. Their second full-length album The Lonesome Crowded West from 1997. It was a versatile album filled with everything from brooding acoustics to post-punk tendencies. But aside from the versatility, vocalist and guitarist Isaac Brock managed to capture something very relatable with his lyrics. His hometown was plagued by sudden urbanization, belief in a higher power changed to belief in a good career, and overall, it seemed like he struggled to grow up and embrace change. A lot of young people resonated with this, and the album has since become a fan favorite, despite of not giving the band the critical success that they’d receive with later releases. In this video we'll take a closer look at the story of the band during the time of the recording and release of this album.
