Modest Mouse, what a band.
Their latest offering, the Golden Casket (Deluxe Edition) on White/Sky Blue Vinyl, is a rollercoaster of emotions, sounds, and just plain weirdness.
From the moment you drop the needle on this record, you're transported into a world of ethereal vocals, frenetic guitar riffs, and lyrics that make you question everything you thought you knew about life.
Tracks like "We Are Between" and "Leave A Light On" showcase the band's signature blend of indie rock and psychedelic influences, while songs like "The Sun Hasn't Left" and "Never F*** A Spider On Christmas Day" take you on a journey through the darkest depths of frontman Isaac Brock's mind.
The Deluxe Edition adds even more layers to an already complex album, with bonus tracks like "Bubblegum" and "Japanese Trees" offering new perspectives on the band's sound.
Overall, the Golden Casket is a mesmerising listen that will leave you both baffled and enchanted.
It's a reminder of why Modest Mouse have remained one of the most influential bands in the indie rock scene for over two decades.
So grab your favourite beverage, sit back, and let the music wash over you.
You won't regret it.
Cheers.
