Modest Mouse - The Fruit That Ate Itself (1997)
Modest Mouse is easily one of my favorite bands of all time. When i first got into them many years ago, the title track from this album was one of the first songs i heard and loved. Its a quirky track with barely any guitar and Issac Brock, the singer/guitarist, is basically rapping with his slurred, lispy speech all over the place. I was unable to hunt down this whole record until about a year ago and was elated when i finally got to hear these other wonderful songs. Check it out.

ACTUALLY, i would venture to say they are your 2ND favorite band...oh I don't know, I think a recent list writing proved that haha...
PS--
Try not to "boo" up your blog anymore than you have...jk haha
I've never listened to much modest mouse, but I really enjoyed this. What other stuff of theirs might you suggest?
if you really liked this, I would suggest checking out Lonesome Crowded West or their first LP, This is a Long Drive For Someone With Nothing To Think About.
all of their albums are amazing, in my opinion, and you should check them out eventually, but the two i suggested are more similar to the style of this EP.
thanks alot! :D
