Yeah, this is another thing I object to - just because you've "been enlightened by the weird and wonderful sounds of the underground" doesn't invalidate someone else's appreciation of a band. I don't really like Modest Mouse, but I don't understand why they come in for so much more criticism than Caroliner (shit) Thinking whatsit (shite) Wavves (one great tune, otherwise shit) etc. It's not that my opinion is sovereign, it's the sanctimony of people with very similar tastes.

*ok, it is really.

Sure, my opinion isn't anymore valuable than anyone else's. I'm just saying. The whole point of this thread is lamenting the death of whatever quality Modest Mouse had at some point, a decade ago. And if you...

actually, you know what, fuck it. Everything that needed to be said has been said.

End of thread.

That was a proper 'oh yeah, the internet' moment, wasn't it?

"The whole point of this thread is lamenting the death of whatever quality Modest Mouse had at some point, a decade ago."

See what I think is funny is Modest Mouse didn't actually start sucking, per se, they just changed their sound, and people are so quick to label that as "selling out" or some insane bullshit. Why are people so set on their favorite bands remaining the same? Like The Mars Volta is making an "acoustic album" and some of their fans are all boo-hoo'ing that it might not be like the rest of their albums, but there are four other albums like that. So what if they go in a new direction, like, isn't that what the albums are for, to listen to them over and over again? They're not disposable materials or something.

It's got nothing to do with them changing their sound, it's got to do with them changing their sound and sounding horrible in the process.

HAhahaha, Mars Volta are making an acoustic album? Funniest news I heard all day. Thanks for that.

And what Derek said.
