a band with lyrics full of ironies and paradoxes such as "night on the sun" , "good times are killing me" however they do have an innovative sound and highly clever lyrics with sweet one liners for those 16 year old bloggers. However they are not indie. at least not anymore. they are signed to Sony Bmg music. they are a main stream band however this isn't to say anything bad about their high quality.
modest mouse is a great band man, I'm kind of sad that their next album will carry more of a commercial anxiety. like float on.

indie band who sounds like a bunch of young kids trying as hard as they can, but is in fact a bunch of 40 year old drunk dudes who spent too much time drinking and not enough time learning how to play their instruments and or singing. i thought lonesome crowded west was great until i realized the guys who made it are way too old to be making music that sounds similar to that i made back in 9th grade.
by the way their lyrics are not genius, they don't even make sense half the time.

Wow, Modest Mouse is so cool. I love how cool they are, they’re so cool that they’re not cool, which is also cool and ironic.
Man, I love being a hipster.

Its Friday night and no ones returned my phone calls, I think I'm going to be pulling a Modest Mouse.

Anything big and fat as hell like Issac Brock; lead singer of the now popular band called Modest Mouse.
Man, I ate a whole pizza and when I was done I looked like Modest Mouse!
When that pizza started to digest I knew I was gonna have to grunt out a Modest Mouse turd!
