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!

A band that no one actually liked. They were only listened to because Rolling Stone gave them a good review. Thankfully, since the band experienced modest popularity, they'll no longer be trendy. Soon, they'll be sitting right next to ICP and Dashboard Confessional in the mainstream, yet still underground, not listened to bin.

A band that's a one-hit wonder. Their only good and only popular song was "Float On". How ironic that after releasing a song called "Float On", they subsequently proceeded to "Float Off" the public's eye.
Hey, whatever happened to that stupid-name band with that one catchy song ? Oh, you mean modest mouse ?

An indie band made up of Isaac Brock the lead singer, Eric Judy the bassist, and Jeremiah Green the drummer. They've released four albums: This Is A Long Drive For Someone With Nothing To Think About, The Lonesome Crowded West, The Moon and Antarctica, and Good News For People Who Love Bad News. They're an amazing band because of their quirky lyrics that somehow make sense in the end.

Modest Mouse is, to be quite honest, the greatest band of all time.
They hail from Issaquah, Washington, and are fronted by Isaac Brock, who, despite being raised in a trailer park, has written some of the greatest lyrics in music.
They became widely known when, in 2004, they released Good News For People Who Love Bad News, which is more upbeat than their earlier work, and it's songs (Ocean Breathes Softly and Float On) began being played by every radio station in the US, at least one an hour.

One of the few Indy Rock bands of our generation who have produced albums which can be considered musical and lyrical masterpieces. They have released at least 8 records under 2 different producers: 'Up Records' and 'Epic'. Modest Mouse has a unique sound, and a habbit for memorable musical song extensions and clever song endings which lead into following songs.

1. A great band led by Isaac Brock. Brock also did Ugly Cassanova. Though they have many many great songs, some dumbass people have described them as emo - which is COMPLETELY false and retarded. I am afraid, too, that they will be considered a one-hit-wonder in the future because their only hit has so far been Float On.
Hey, have you heard of Modest Mouse?
Yeah, they did Float On, right?
You go to hell. *puches buddy in face, then groin*
