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

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.
