4.0 excellent | Comatorium. | March 7th 15 | Spending some much anticipated time with this album has been great, and Strangers to Ourselves proves to be ironically titled, this is a distinct return to form for MM with numerous nods to their past discography and more upbeat atmosphere and pristine production of their latest works. They sound as comfortable and familiar with who they are as a band now more than ever. Pistol throws back to Tiny Cities Made of Ashes. Shit in your Cut echoes the vibes of Cowboy Dan. The Ground Walks, With Time in a Box unfolds deliberately and pointedly like The Stars are Projectors, but retains the irresistible groove that MM have made their trade in recent years. The whole album feels like a natural amalgamation of the old and the new, a happy balance between the ballsy moodiness of their first three album stretch and their happy go lucky indie dance rock they have introduced into their sound.

2.5 average | Zanareth | March 7th 15 | I mildly enjoy this album. Modest Mouse is my favorite band to this day, no question. And yet here I am several months after the release of their first album in over 8 years, and I've realized that I haven't revisited a single song from this album ever since I gave it some spins back in March.

1.5 very poor | hippocheese14 | April 18th 15 | Maybe they weren't ready to come back. While it pains me to give such a harsh rating, Average or even Poor just wouldn't have sufficed.

4.5 superb | Mrjohnsini | June 2nd 15 | If this was released in 2011 and not 2015, I'm sure fans and critics alike would see that this is just as strong as Good News.

4.0 excellent | Jared Floryan | March 17th 15 | Striking a very logical counterpoise between what is ultimately a well-versed indie rock sound and alternative goodness, Strangers to Ourselves is like a quest that Modest Mouse were willing to embark on right when Isaac Brock and his sea salties first saw it coming. "Pistol," "The Tortoise and the Tourist," "God Is an Indian and You're an Asshole," and "Sugar Boats" are among my favorite tracks off this beautifully unassuming album, but no other songs are terrible in any way; very few can be considered filler, which is where "Ansel" comes to mind.

3.5 great | ABjordanMM | March 14th 15 | "Pistol" is a testimony as to why being your own record label might not be the best idea.
