The new Modest Mouse Cd??

Don't know if anyone is into indie? But the Flaming Lips (one of my personal fav's) were in on this and I personally think it's an amazing piece of work.

Also digging the new Morrissy

anyway just asking your opinions on something out of the box

I prefer to stay away from anything that isn't progressive.

I prefer to stay away from anything that isn't progressive.

bummer. Modest Mouse rules. In all honestly with 7 hours of prog i can listen to in one day, i do get a little burned out. nice to do a switch to classic rock, to bob, punk, jazz, etc. try it. when you got back to prog, you blow a load in your pants. promise.

I think every one of his posts are like this, a few emoticons or a brief and utterly simplistic statement like, "John Digweed be great. "

It just cracks me up

So true. Within the course of a single day it is not uncommon for me to listen to Digweed, Slayer, NOFX, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Jadakiss, Lamb of God and Fox Sports radio. And never think twice about it.

I've never heard of Modest Mouse, but if the Flaming Lips are involved I'm sure its very interesting.

very true...a little too much of something can be boring....i walk to work everyday....i usually listen to alternative....i get home listen to electronic...

but my brother introduced me to modest mouse...pretty cool band...i am really enjoying it

cheers

I'm also loving the new Morrisey cd. Saw him for my birthday at the Apollo of all places and it was great.

[c-hill5]

the modest mouse cd is great. just got it the other day, but morrisey? haven't given his new cd a chance, but isn't he a little past his prime?

[buzztim]

modest mouse has been around for a while... and this new one isn't the best cd they have released... BUT... it is still damn good... they are a consistent band and i'm glad to finally see them getting some exposure...



i could never listen to 'progressive' all day long though... i would either fall asleep or gouge my ears with a screwdriver...

it has to be variety... everything and anything under the sun, musically speaking...

every one of my cds in my cd book is progressive, except for a chili peppers mp3 cd, beck mp3 cd, a primus mp3 cd, and metallica mp3 cd. If I ever get burnt out on progressive I listen to however many hours of mp3s you can fit on 4 cds... but it doesn't happen very often.

I'm glad to see this thread getting some response...

I don't post here much or haven't in the past, but I have looked at the view of many on more than several occasions. And it seems that for most progressive is the only thing they enjoy anymore. Although it is refreshing to see that their are some open minds on the board.

I must admit I rarely get down with much of what is considered "progressive" today, the mindset is a little too regressive for me. Although there are many notable exceptions by some of the major leaders of the genre, such as Digweed and Howells for example, who are open minded and realize that one cannot close themselves off to things that don't fit the progressive mold.

House music is my staple through and through, but there are also many others in different places that are doing it right.

It's important to grasp the big picture. Because there are fresh ideas all over the place and for music to take steps forward everyone should learn by listening to what others are doing.

I guarantee, that none of your favorite artists listen to simply one style of music. So I believe that it is important for the listeners to see what else is out there.

This is just my opinion so if you don't agree, fine. But I would like to hear an explanation
