Today I was absolutely ecstatic. I learned this morning that the excellent blog My Top Five (you can find the link in the links section) gave a link to THIS blog in their most recent podcast, in which they also played one of my suggestions for My Top Five Air Guitar Songs (Purple Haze). I highly recommend checking out their site.
Anyways, the Band Of The Day today is the incredibly appealing and musically pleasant Modest Mouse. Modest Mouse was formed in 1993 in Issaquah, Washington by singer/lyricist/guitarist Isaac Brock, drummer Jeremiah Green, bassist Eric Judy, and guitarist Dann Gallucci. They have released 5 records and they kick ass. Here's a couple tracks from We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank (2007), Good News For People Who Love Bad News (2004), and This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About (1996).
