Today's Quick Mention: John Michael and I have started working
on a new site, which will hopefully be launched later in the summer.
If you've ever had any ideas about what you'd like to see around here than
please shoot me an email or leave a comment. Your input could make the
world a better place.
Modest Mouse's last LP didn't exactly set the world on fire (I liked it), but unsurprisingly they're trekking on and
putting out a small collection of unreleased tracks and b-sides. But
not because they think you'll like the old stuff more. Or whatever,
man. Quit judging them! The No One's First And You're Next
EP is due in August (the song below has its own 7"). Enjoy.

Mouse - Satellite Skin:
"Well happy fucking congratulations" The
songs that make up the upcoming EP are said to have been
made during the last two records, so if someone could drop
in and explain why this gem was left off either of them then
that would be great, because I just don't get why anyone
thought that was a good idea. In any case, if you've
been yearning for something that doesn't totally remind you
of Float On or Dashboard then get ready to
have this on repeat since it's probably as close as you're
ever going to get without re-visiting older efforts.
