 | | Early in their career, Modest Mouse accomplished what may be the ultimate goal of any band: to forge a unique and recognizable sound from the most basic elements of rock music. |
 | | On "Black Cadillacs", Modest Mouse wind up sounding uncannily like The Clash, Brock's chorus of "we were done, done, done with all the fuck, fuck, fucking around" echoed by angular stabs of guitar, bass, and drums. |
 | | Still, it's remarkable that, after four long full-lengths, an album's worth of singles, and a couple of EPs, Modest Mouse are still finding ways to invigorate their sound while retaining a sense of definiteness and sincerity. |
