If you ever find yourself at a loss for words, just turn to Isaac Brock, singer/songwriter and frontman of indie rock band Modest Mouse for inspiration. Brock is the genius behind the sarcastic and disturbing yet pleasing lyrics that make the band’s latest release “We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank” one to live for.
The single ‘Dashboard’ demands your attention without effort, an un-doubtly pop track with a dose of character and attitude for the dancing queens. But if you prefer something a little wild and exquisitely weird ‘Parting With A Sensory’ is sure to satisfy your dark side, taking a stab at the circle of life theory. And if you’re one who tends to do things on the safe side, you may think twice after hearing ‘Missed The Boat’. As the record keeps spinning, you’ll anchor down to the delicate soul-soothing tune that is ‘Little Motel’, before nearing to an end with charismatic ‘People As Places As People’.
Given a few listens, you’ll find the most bizarre mix of songs placed so close together will strangely begin to make sense, even if I don’t.
