to be fair, you DO get your fair share of rita mcneil, great big sea, and the rankin family right? lol

it's hard enough getting good bands to come thru ottawa (the nation's capital) and when they do it's either Scotiabank Place (which is basically situated in a farmer's field 30 minutes outside the city) or some cramped battle-of-the-bands quality venue downtown. ****'s weak

My sister got my started on Modest Mouse about a year ago with the "Good news" album. Since then I've been hooked, easily one of my favorite bands. I was able to see them about a month ago. HOLY ****! that was a great concert, I couldnt get it out of my head for weeks haha. I can not wait to see them again.

i dont get the hoobla surrounding this band

they get too much credit for just having Johnny marr as their guitarist

Good News for People Who Love Bad News is a horrendously vile album

Umm..you realize Modest Mouse were even more popular a few years ago before Johnny Marr had ever even joined them right? And outside the mainstream they were pretty critically acclaimed nearly a decade ago.

The last two albums have been generally acknowledged as bad. So congrats on judging a band based on their worst material and a very misinformed opinion.
