## Description

Subject to it's own Pitchfork documentary, listed in numerous prestigious Best Albums of the 90s lists, and destined to be re-discovered by continuous generations, THE LONESOME CROWDED WEST stands as the defacto Northwest indie-rock record. Originally released in 1997, it not only helped shape the sound that came to be associated with the American Pacific Northwest, but across these sprawling, wide-open 15 songs, Modest House helped redefine what was possible for guitar music. As such, THE LONESOME CROWDED WEST has often been mimicked, but it's awesome open-hearted existentialism and manic ambition has rarely been matched. A modern classic that demands reappraisal.

Review: How did I miss this in 1997? - A truly amazing piece of work that I wish I had discovered in 1997. "The Lonesome Crowded West" is some of Modest Mouse's finest work, and perhaps one of the top albums of the 90's. From the very first line of "Teeth like God's Shoeshine," you know this is going to be an interesting record. And interesting is a major understatement. Singer Isaac Brock comes in spitting fire, teetering on the edge of sanity as he sing/yells his way through the despair and the search for meaning in life. Brock, along with bassist Eric Juby , drummer Jeremiah Green and a handful of guest musicians deliver a powerful, multi-layered, intricate collection of songs, each unique in their own right, and never boring. Especially check out the hypnotic "Heart Cooks Brain," "Convenient Parking and "Doin' the Cockroach." For new listeners, it may be a little tough to digest on the first listen. After a couple spins, this album will grab hold of you and be a staple in your musical diet for a long time to come.
Review: Great value - Modest Mouse, enough said
