Modest Mouse’s 2007 studio album, ‘We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank,’ featuring The Smith’s Johnny Marr, debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 and was released to rave reviews, including The Guardian, which called it “thrilling,” and Entertainment Weekly, which said “[Isaac] Brock has never sounded more charismatic.” More recently, the band has headlined festivals such as Governors Ball, Reading, Leeds, Sasquatch, among others, and toured worldwide. In 2009, they released a collection unreleased songs and b-sides, ‘No One’s First, And You’re Next,’ and, in 2012, they premiered a 45-minute documentary on the making of ‘The Lonesome Crowded West,’ an album Pitchfork hailed as a “modern classic.”
