mikedrumz: Modest Mouse Albums Ranked

mikedrumz 10.18.12	Funny- they are almost in chronological order
ti0n 10.18.12	fail?
mikedrumz 10.18.12	It's mine and they're my favorite band.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	What's wrong with it? Because I like they're original 2 records best?
mikedrumz 10.18.12	If your dissing me for putting SSS as 1, I'll tell you why: mice eat cheese, birds vs. worms, point a to point b, racecar grin, classy plastic lumber....my reasons for my number 2 spot: The Waydown, Dirty Fingernails, Summer, Sunspots.... And my reasoning why "everywhere and his..." is before long drive is because it's their most spacey and psychadelic album. Those 2 are interchangeable on my list though.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	People hate on those first 2 albums because of the raw sounds and dial a songs on Sss and because of the 3 filler reverse tracks on ftai. Aside from those, however, they are extremely potent albums. Any real modest mouse fan knows that...
barcafan21 10.18.12	ummmm, tmaa 5?
Emyay 10.18.12	1 list per day
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Tmaa is a great album just all the ones before it are better. You could argue that 4 and 5 should be switched though.
ViralOblivion 10.18.12	List sucks dick and so does the user
Muisc4Life26 10.18.12	5 is the best!
chambered49 10.18.12	5 is 1
ti0n 10.18.12	people "hate"(i like it, but it's their weakest ofc) SSS because it was messy as hell and no fucking concept behind it, just one random guitar riff after another. the musicianship was just not good on this.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	I'm a music student at a top tier music school??
ti0n 10.18.12	AS IF
mikedrumz 10.18.12	And sure there wasn't a lot of concept behind the album as a whole, but there is a lot of emotion on it and he was I my 17 at the time Isaac wrote it. And I don't care how well known it is. I placed their most well known album in the bottom. And thanks but I was posting MY favorite modest mouse albums ranked, not yours.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	And I bet I know more about "musicianship" than you. I've played Virginia Tate for she-e wu on marimba and got great feedback.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	And I'm one I the best students in my music theory class. I got a 1 in solo and ensemble all throughout highschool, was snare captain at my highschool... Won several awards and studied keyboard and trombone as well.
mvood 10.18.12	SSS rules props
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Thank you^
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Goddamn Sputnik is full of negative ass flamers. Can't even discuss music without shit talking, like people's hatred towards someone's music taste matters... Instead of being a music discussion site this has turned into a basic Internet forum. I am sick of these Internet badasses I come here to talk music, no slander other people and tell them they are wrong for what they like.
ABjordanMM 10.18.12	SSS is good but i don't think it's best..Actually saw it at a record store and thought about picking it up.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	That's a rare find at a store I had to order mine online
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Yea because I'm here to talk about music, more specifically my favorite modest mouse records
ViralOblivion 10.18.12	its the internet what did you expect??
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Your right I should have figured as much^
mikedrumz 10.18.12	It's cool to see Isaacs writing when he's young. He had a lot of raw passion and he portrays it very well. It's actually a very potent album
iSkane 10.18.12	Jesus, let him think what he wants. Even if it is wrong.
larrytheslug 10.18.12	cant find people to discuss music with? just talk to urself dummy! 4 ur health.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Iskane that's what I'm saying. People are basically telling me my opinions wrong because tmaa isn't #1 on my list. And I love that album, too.
Yazz_Flute 10.18.12	Haven't heard 1/2/6/9 The Moon & Antarctica The Lonesome Crowded West Building Nothing Out of Something We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank This is a Long Drive For Someone With Nothing to Think About Good News For People Who Love Bad News
mikedrumz 10.18.12	You liked we were dead more than long drive?? And you should DEF check out 1 and 2.
mvood 10.18.12	I can see why SSS would be your favourite. If I had to choose an album of theirs that defines their quirky sound and why I love them so much it would be SSS. Haterz be haterz.
Yazz_Flute 10.18.12	Yeah, I seem to be in the minority that really enjoys We Were Dead. It's really good for what it is, and Spitting Venom is easily one of my top MM tracks.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Exactly^ that album IS modest mouse in their purest most original form. So underated. And people are hating me and shouting "TMAA!!!!!!"
ti0n 10.18.12	the waydown is awesome i agree
mikedrumz 10.18.12	We were dead, IN MY OPINION just sounded too poppy. Definately their weakest. Although I do like spitting venom and fly trapped in the jar
mvood 10.18.12	Yeah Spitting Venom is glorious
WatchItExplode 10.18.12	My favorite is Everywhere and His Nasty Parlour Tricks followed by Lonesome Crowded West. Thats just me though.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	I like everywhere and his nasty parkout tricks. Is very misunderstood and underrated. Very strung out and spacey. A weird and drugged part of isaacs life I can tell. Very disassociated
mvood 10.18.12	for me, as an album, Long Drive fills me up the most. As well as having my favourite MM song Talking Shit. But I couldn't rank them, they are pretty much my favourite band.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	The waydown is lyrically Isaac at his finest...
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Long drive is classic. It's just bland in comparison to some of their other stuff. That's like their middle-most album in my opinion. Ohio and talking shit and Dramamine are the highlights. And head south.
BaconStarship 10.18.12	The moon & A at 5?!? Dat shit cray
Trebor. 10.18.12	"Long drive is classic. It's just bland in comparison to some of their other stuff. " lol what
mikedrumz 10.18.12	The album sounds stale compared to tmaa abstract guitar sounds or SSS raw sounds.
mikedrumz 10.18.12	Trevor if you have nothing positive to contribute to my threads, please, just don't open them...
mikedrumz 10.18.12	@bacon. That doesn't mean I don't think it's a great album
larrytheslug 10.18.12	this is a long drive is mah second favorite. putting it at 7 is way too low. my opinion is also validated by the fact that i went to a top-tier music school ...so theres that
Graveyard 10.18.12	three
JenileeBelle 10.27.12	Sad sappy sucker rules. You go mikedrumz
DarthJames 11.03.12	Need to listen to SSS, I've always enjoyed a good raw sound
