Modest Mouse - Good News for People Who Love Bad News

I first heard this album and of the group last May, and was really impressed. It turns out they have 4 other albums dating back to 1996.
The band would be classified as Rock, but the definetly have an orignal sound for rock..which is what first appealed to me. I really enjoy the lead singer's (Isaac Brock) voice. Several songs from this album are really getting a lot of air time right now.
I've only heard bits and pieces from their previous albums, but from what I've heard of it I like...very similar style.
Of course [url=http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&searchlink=MODEST|MOUSE&uid=SUB020408311945&sql=11:by59ke9tkq7v~T0]AllMusic [/url] has everything and anything you would want to know on these guys.
I would highly recommend this album to rock fans out there.
4.5/ 5 stars

Though. this latest album is not my favorite by them, I definately love this group. I would classify them as indie rock, so as not to confuse them with the alt/rock we came to know in the 90's.

What was you favorite album? Seems like all of their previous albums have been reviewed highly.

of the ones i've listened to, i like "the moon and antartica" the best. Though, I've only listened to that one, and Good News for People Who Love Bad News... I should check out their other stuff sometime.
