This does get pretty repetitive at times so I can definitely understand why you'd think it drags, though I personally think it adds to this album's charm.

Dramamine is amazing but honestly the rest of this album is kinda ehh by Modest Mouse standards. Maybe I just need to listen to it more, it def seems like a grower.

But in all seriousness I used to think this album dragged on a bit when I first listened to it, it took a couple of listens to appreciate the other songs. Honestly though .. there are songs as good(and in my opinion better) than Dramamine.



Off the top of my head, Custom Concern, Lounge, Beach Side Property, She Ionizes & Atomizes, Tundra/Desert, Ohio, Talking Shit About A Pretty Sunset, and Make Everyone Happy/Mechanical Birds are all just as notable.

Mayhem, this was definitely a grower for me. Thought it was just pretty good at first, but eventually it won me over.



Thank you ALA, I love "Dramamine" as much as the next guy but it's only my fifth favorite from here. And don't forget about "Breakthrough"!

awwwwwwwwwWWWW SHHHHHHIIIIT!



I honeslty feel like 5'ing all 3 of these first albums, but like someone else mentioned Moon won out for it's consistency. Not that this is or LCW is truly inconsistent by any means though.



Also yeah this one took a couple listens to appreciate, Ohio for me especially, which is now one of my favorite MM songs in general.



More yeah random agreeing with people yup MM is great insert whatever "m/" is for indie rock

@Dylan No problem : ) Honestly I love Dramamine but it over shadows too much of the other great material. And yeah, Breakthrough is great. But if I were to add one more song to that list, it would be Novacain Stain honestly. Even Might maybe. Still, I love Breakthrough.



@Sandwich Nice pic dude! When this was my shit that was my favorite song off here. Now though I'm thinking more of the Ohio/Talking Shit/Mechanic stuff. That being said that might change back to Tundra

Re-jamming this now, and damn I might have to bump it up... I've been sleeping on the last few tracks on here, they pretty much all kick ass.

"This album was a pretty big letdown and drags waaaaaay too much to justify its length."



the dragging is a part of its charm
