Everyone complains about Modest Mouse's newest music, but I don't see the problem. Guilty Cocker Spaniels is one of their best songs yet. Any fan of Modest Mouse should be able to see that you have to change your sound the longer you play music. They're developing their style more and more and it's only getting better. I can see where people are coming from saying that they might be settling or changing their sound to better fit the current market, but the more you listen to these songs the more you know it's still Modest Mouse.

It is a great song. I listen it and i think it is my life song.

Sure the sound is different from older albums but what's wrong with that? These guys are gonna do their thing. If it all sounded the f***ing same then it wouldn't be Modest Mouse now would it?

I enjoyed every song on this album..definitely put me into flavor country..

Well I don't know if any band members will read this but I'm gonna say it anyways. I'm glad I got to listen to the music you guys have made. It has seriously helped me through some tough times man. Hopefully I'll be able to afford to go to one of your shows some day, until then best of wishes and f*** what the mainstream thinks of you. You guys rock. You already know this but, sound however you damn well please!

Oh yeah..why did someone post some shit about being to fat to jog/jogging? hahaha

"Modest Mouse has entered into the same caliber of the Beatles... etc... Modest Mouse does not turn to vinegar with age, and hopefully they keep putting out more quality music like this, to quote Isaac Brock himself "f*** that dude, and f*** the old shit". "
EricCharles or something similar said this just a few posts ago.
I WAS AT THE CONCERT IN KC! AND! Honest to all that is or ever will be/was, that guy drunkenly yelling is my cousin. He ripped his ass for like 2 minutes. That was pretty great. Something like "The song we just played is f***in older than you!"
There was a guy standing just a bit further ahead than I recording the whole show and put it on youtube lol. Oh good times.

Does anyone else think that the climactic guitar part that comes in about halfway into Guilty Cocker Spaniels sounds like falling in love? It's simple but beautiful and I feel amazing everytime I hear it. <3 Modest Mouse, you're well worth the tattoo I have of you.

It's albums like this that make me feel bad about illegally downloading their music online.
Such a well made album.

Thank you Modest Mouse.

The Beatles never put out a bad album. In the present industry where music taste is changed in the time frame of one hit single to the next this has become nigh impossible to do. One bands sound can only keep you captivated and fascinated for so long until the next Kanye, Jay-z, Taylor Swift, or Green Day album is released. Even the last remaining hopes to continue the tradition of creative and intellectual music, those who are not played on MTV, have their bastard child of a CD. A CD made for the sake of putting out a CD. Following this trend, after putting out 5 albums and now 6 EP's, Modest Mouse should have come up with a real piece of work that causes them to lose half of the fan base.
The criteria for a bad album is lack of any distinction between previous albums (Nickelback). Putting out a new album, not because you are satisfied with the compilation, but for monetary reasons. Creating a compilation of music, different from your own sound, to hit the mainstream market, please artists if you would not listen to it don't play it. Or, the worst of all albums, creating one good song, and then filling the rest with filler because you did not want to release a single.
Modest Mouse has entered into the same caliber of the Beatles. This album not only had amazing tracks, but it showed they are the Shakespeare of modern rock, able to put out albums frequently. But a band that puts out a lot of albums doesn't make a good band. All of the tracks on this EP were not rushed, they had a lot of polish. You can definitely distinguish the individuality between this EP and the rest of their Albums/EP's. Though my favorite part of this album is that it is not radio friendly. If an album becomes too radio friendly (which is impossible, it is a sin to play an entire album on the radio, just one song is the law) it becomes bleated to the point where I don't want to hear it anymore. Music is like a sitcom. You love the show, but when it comes to the re-runs the show becomes less entertaining, you need to let it sit on the shelf for a minute. Now I can sit in my car and never have to utter the phrase "I'm getting tired of Modest Mouse".
The EP appeared to have some Bruce Springsteen influence (evident in History Sticks to Your Feet and Satellite Skin), giving this EP its niche among other EP's. Modest Mouse does not turn to vinegar with age, and hopefully they keep putting out more quality music like this, to quote Isaac Brock himself "f*** that dude, and f*** the old shit".

1. My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She's 97 now & we don't know where the heck she is.

2. The only reason I would take up jogging is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.

3. I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to show up.

4. I have to exercise in the morning before my brain figures out what I'm doing.

5. I don't exercise at all. If God meant us to touch our toes, he would have put them further up our body.

6. I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.

7. I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.

8. The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.

9. If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.

10. I don't jog. It makes the ice jump right out of my glass.

This has been a surprise pack for me, after there last album "We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank" in 2007 it was a 2 year break that they had, but came out with satellite skin, i like the "guilty cocker" a lot i have been hearing it repeatedly in my car stereo.Isacc's lyrics have been outstanding, Kudoos to all you guys for the wonderful job.

Every album by this band has always started off strong in my opinion, usually with a great follow up to the first track. An example or two being Long Drive(Dramamine, Breakthrough) and Moon & Antarctica(3rd Planet, Gravity Rides Everything). No One's First And You're Next follows in this 'tradition' with this 7" as the two opening songs.

Satellite Skin is a semi-radio friendly mid-tempo rocker with some of Isaac's best lyrics to date(Asking for a question/Was it easier said than was actually done?/Do you even believe that?/Do you even believe that theres a race to be won?). They are never short on the strange, off-kilter sounds either, with twangy guitars and softly chiming bells. As always Isaac delivers his signature jangly guitar riffs and instead of a chorus we get a 'MM solo'. All in all a wonderful way to start the EP.

Next up on the EP and lastly on this 7" we get Guilty Cocker Spaniels, another Isaac Brock rap-fest with an almost tropical island-like guitar riff and toe-tapping drums from Jeremiah Green and percussionist Joe Plummer. Halfway through the song the band begins a musical meltdown that explodes into something that sound like Modest Mouse from the late 1990's for the second half. Most definitely a crowd favorite live and a stellar stand alone.

The words and conviction in these songs give off slight amounts of desperation but also great amounts of hope or at least some kind of realization. The EP continues on with a diverse collection of great songs but as a 7" this might be the best one from the album itself.

I just bought Modest Mouse's new EP and I must say, no matter how long they are together they will never get bad. I'm 18 years old and I've been listening to Modest Mouse since I was about 10. From my favourite album: "This is a Long Drive..." to "We Were Dead...", nothing they do sounds similar. I can pick out any different sounding song from She Ionizes and Atomizes to Long Distance Drunk to Willful Suspension of Disbelief to Little Motel, and they're all different but still amazing. Everything they do will always be unique and it's because Isaac Brock is so musically genius that they can do pretty much anything to sound different. I love Perpetual Motion Machine, it's a good transition, different sounding song. And Beleob****Bottoms, quit freaking out on these young kids who just started listening to them, they're music style changes as they grow up, im sure you didnt listen to the same thing you did at the age of 12 or 13, if they're young their taste in music changes, atleast they're fans and supportive. You're acting just as young as them, and you're 35. YOU grow up and realize that not everyone is exposed to underground bands such as MM back in the day, because they listen to more mainstream stuff when theyre younger. So lay off and take it easy, because i'm sure if you were this young, you'd be starting off on the same foot as them and you wouldn't want other people givin you s**t about not bein able to have the chance to listen to them back in the day. Take your own advice my friend and grow up. All in all, modest mouse is definately my all time favourite band and will be until the day i die. The new EP is excellent and they still surprise me with being so creative 14 years after they're first LP release. Keep it up MM!!

Alright, I'll admit that I'm a bit late to the game as far as being a modest mouse fan goes, I only caught on at "Good News" and it took being completely immersed in "We Were Dead" before I decided that it would be best to backtrack and see what I had missed with this amazing band's older work. From what I can tell this album actually seems like a return to their older jam band type of sound after wandering into the more neatly constructed sound of the last two albums. What ties together all of the work though is not necessarily the over all sound, but Brock's amazing lyricism and vocal styling, this album is no exception. I personally hope that these guys keep making music until the all croak.

is the best mm album. Too bad this new album doesn't come close.

Hey Nugget, Your 100% right. Hey peregrintook69, your dispicable!

That was a terrible song, if that's you're basing your musical interest in modest mouse upon it's dispicable. "This plane is definitely crashing!" I always thought "There's a song they came up with on the crapper." Enjoy Trucker's Atlas or the duo of Talking Shit About A Pretty Sunset and Mechanical Birds/Make Everyone Happy (they sound quite bad ass back-to-back) if you're going to b**** about the new stuff.

Good News for People Who Love Bad News was and is still their best album. Twang ain't never a bad thang.

Then these songs are for you. Period. Modest Mouse is cool, get a clue. See you in Columbus.
