Indie music fans in south Florida are already arriving in south Florida for this weekend's Langerado Festival.The 2008 Langerado Festival has a hot lineup for a relatively little-known music fest (compared to Lollapalooza, Coachella and Bonnaroo). During the next few days, IRC will highlight some of the headlining aritsts for Langerado 2008, including links and embeds of videos from the 08 festival performances as soon as they are available.Today's featured Langerado artist is Sound Tribe Sector 9 (STS9). While they haven't released a new album in nearly three years (Artifact, 2005), the band has toured so much in recent years that fresh material doesn't seem to matter.STS9, the dub-happy jam band from Georgia that has had a loyal following for a decade now, but only really broke through w

Modest Mouse - Float On (Live Studio Session) Del penúltimo disco desta banda de Issaquah, Washington; que desde 1993 nos vienen ofertando su rock independiente q varía entre elementos sonoros de jazz, rock, pop, country, emo, funk y blues, tomando influencias de los Pixies, Built to Spill, Sonic Youth, The Velvet Underground, Pavement, Talking Heads. En el 2004 con el disco Good News for People Who Love Bad News lograrían muchas ventas, justamente la canción q los catapultó al éxito fue ésta que les traigo, una versión muy limpia.

Missed the Boat es la sexta canción y el segundo sencillo del álbum We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, de la banda Modest Mouse. Fué lanzado el 20 de marzo del 2007. Cosas interesantes sobre el video:En el 2007, Apple Inc. y Modest Mouse le pidieron a los fans que hicieran una filmación para la canción. El concurso terminó el 22 de mayo del 2007. Christopher Mills, quien también dirigió el video de "Float On", dirigió las secuencias de la pantalla verde usadas en el concurso. El video ganador dirigido por Walter Robot, que es Christopher Louie y Bill Barminski, muestra a un robot que es construido para servir en los quehaceres diarios de casa pero que un día viendo la TV ve a una chica y pide a su creador le haga una robot semejante. El creador se niega y el robot se va de casa. Luego de buscarla y buscarla la encuentra, pero no a la chica real... véanlo ustedes mismos.Y en cuanto a los videos que participaron en el concurso, pues en otro video, mostrado en MTV2 y Fuse

Dashboard es la segunda canción y el primer sencillo del álbum We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, de la banda estadounidense de rock alternativo Modest Mouse.El video musical de la canción se estrenó oficialmente el 6 de febrero del 2007 en MTV y en cuyo verso de la canción se escucha "Oh the dashboard melted but we still have the radio" es una referencia de la película de 1987 llamada Planes, Trains & Automobiles.En el video, cuando el marinero está en la isla, la cámara cambia de posición y el brazo sin mano cambia de la mano derecha a la de la izquierda, luego ya vuelve normal.En la línea de la canción "Oh if the world don't like us it'll shake us just like we were a co-oh-oh-oh-old" se refiere al calentamiento global. Eso fué dicho por Isaac en una entrevista a Spin Magazine.

Modest Mouse, la banda estadounidense de Rock Alternativo e Indie Rock formada en 1993 en Issaquah, Washington nos presenta su más reciente videoclip del tema Invisible lanzado recientemente el pasado 26 de octubre. Invisble forma parte de su álbum "We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank", quinto álbum de la banda Modest Mouse y que fuera realizado el 20 de marzo del 2007. En cuanto al video, me encantó, en el aparecen varias situaciones en las que un chico maniobrando una pelotita de hule que solo parece reaccionar y maniobrar al ritmo de la música, mientras tanto, parece pasar desapercibido ante todos.

Everywhere and His Nasty Parlour Tricks, an eight-song EP from Modest Mouse, is a mellow affair. The release combines old tracks from Night on the Sun (an out-of-print vinyl-only EP), remixes, and outtakes from the The Moon and Antarctica sessions along with a couple new songs. "Willful Suspension of Disbelief" is a sedated intro that didn't make it onto Moon, but it sets the perfect tranquil mood to introduce this disc. Although the new track "You're the Good Things" builds intensity with quickening drumbeats and front man Isaac Brock's tension-filled vocals, most of the songs on this album float in a dreamier state. "The Air"--producer Brian Deck's remix of several Moon tracks collaged together--is a woozy instrumental jam that enters experimental, electronic territory. Brock gets sensitive on "So Much Beauty in Dirt," exclaiming that there's "so much beauty it could make you cry" over stripped-down guitars and subtle psychedelic effects. While Brock's distinct vocal and guitar

is the second out-of-print EP by indie rock band Modest Mouse, released on Up Records in 1996. It contains the band's original demo, Live in Sunburst Montana, which was recorded in Isaac Brock's garage in Issaquah, Washington. All but one of the studio songs not included in earlier Modest Mouse albums were included on the Building Nothing Out of Something rarities compilation released in 1999. This song, "Edit the Sad Parts" is joined by "Buttons to Push the Buttons" as the only songs not available in some form on another Modest Mouse release, though both appeared again later on the label compilations.

Produced by Calvin Johnson, The Fruit That Ate Itself possesses a leaner and meaner sound than earlier Modest Mouse releases -- the emphasis here is less on noise than groove, and the spare, edgy approach of cuts like "Dirty Fingernails" and the title track recalls the goofy indie-funk of Dub Narcotic Sound System and other likeminded Johnson-helmed projects.

Just in case you missed it, Modest Mouse just selected a winner for their music video director contest. The new video is here today! The band took all kinds of raw footage of them playing in front of a green screen for their new single "Missed the Boat" from the We Were Already Dead Before the Ship Even Sank album.

Que decir de Modest Mouse, uno de mis grupos favoritos. Caracterizados por siempre hacer su propio estilo e influenciarse poco por los demás. Si ya el Good News For People That Love Bad News y sobretodo la canción "The World At Large"(mi favorita) fueron increibles, este nuevo disco We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, no lo es menos.La novedad y peculiaridad de este disco respecto a los anteriores reside en la inclusión del ex-guitarrista de The Smiths, Johnny Marr como miembro del grupo. Lo que nos asegura nuevos "riffs" de este gran guitarrista.

Modest Mouse - We Were Dead Before the Ship Even SankNow that Modest Mouse have fully established themselves as a major-label indie rock band -- no longer an oxymoron! -- with the success of 2004's Good News for People Who Love Bad News (though they had actually been on Sony, through Epic, since 2000's The Moon & Antarctica), they face the difficult task of trying to follow up a mainstream hit while still retaining the adroit quirkiness that won them fans in the first place.Finding that space between "creativity" and "accessibility" is not easy, but the band (with help from Johnny Marr, among others) is probably as well, if not better, equipped as anyone to tackle the challenge. The first single, "Dashboard," is catchy and interesting, even a little off-kilter, but it's also completely radio-friendly, in that dancey Franz Ferdinand kind of way, and the album's opener, "March into the Sea," has great juxtaposition between Isaac Brock's maniacal Cookie Monster laugh and lighter acco

Everybody wants a piece of the Washington state band Modest Mouse. Its most recent effort, We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, shot straight to the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 129,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The album was originally intended for release last December, but this spring release seems to have worked out nicely.

"We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank" is the fifth studio album from American band Modest Mouse. It was released in America on March 20, 2007. It is their first studio album since 2004's Good News for People Who Love Bad News, and it is also the first album with former The Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr. [Full story of We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank]Modest Mouse Bio:In 1994, Isaac Brock, Jeremiah Green, John Wickhart, and Dann Gallucci recorded their debut EP, Blue Cadet-3, Do You Connect?, at Calvin Johnson's Dub Narcotic Studios, which was then released on Calvin's record label K Records. Then followed a single with Sub-Pop that was recorded by Steve Wold at Moon Studios.

You know it’s a sad day in the blogosphere when I have been resorted to reporting on who the Xbox Artist of the Month is. Alas, that day has arrived. Modest Mouse, the multi-platinum and Grammy award-winning band who every pot-smoking, self-described “deep” person listens to (because self-described “deep” people have no taste in music, apparently), is the Xbox Artist of the Month, and a new video promoting their upcoming album “We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank” (what is it with these new-age rock bands and their self-righteous album titles?) is currently available on the Xbox Live Marketplace. Modest Mouse will also be a participant in Microsoft’s “Game With Fame” event, but it’s not been said what games you’ll be playing against the band in. Hopefully it’ll be something with guns, though. That should at least be a little satisfying. Previous “Artist of the Month” recipients include Audio

Modest Mouse smashed me with the new record, "We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank". it is the first album with former The Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr. If you see some anonymous people talking itchy on other blogs, that's because of they're jealous bastards. Modest Mouses are growing and bringing quite in a good mood music to the scene. Isaac Brock keep going to yammer. In an interview Isaac [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

Issaquah, WA, indie rock trio Modest Mouse was formed in 1993 by vocalist/guitarist Isaac Brock, bassist Eric Judy, and drummer Jeremiah Green. After honing their muscular sound in "The Shed" -- a makeshift practice space built by Brock on the land next to his mother's trailer -- Modest Mouse entered Calvin Johnson's Dub Narcotic Studios to cut their 1994 self-titled debut single, released on Johnson's K Records label. Following a move to the Up label, the trio issued two 1996 LPs, This Is a Long Drive for Someone With Nothing to Think About and Interstate 8.After returning to K, Modest Mouse released The Fruit That Ate Itself in 1997; its follow-up from later that year, The Lonesome Crowded West, was the band's breakthrough, and in the wake of a major-label bidding war, they signed to Sony. The rarities collection Building Nothing out of Something appeared on Up in early 2000, followed later that year by their long-awaited Epic debut, The Moon & Antarctica. In 2001, the band issue
