Modest Mouse ‎– The Lonesome Crowded West LP

SUBJECT TO ITS OWN PITCHFORK DOCUMENTARY, LISTED IN NUMEROUS PRESTIGIOUS BEST ALBUMS OF THE 90S LISTS, AND DESTINED TO BE RE-DISCOVERED BY CONTINUOUS GENERATIONS, THE LONESOME CROWDED WEST STANDS AS THE DEFACTO NORTHWEST INDIE-ROCK RECORD. ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 1997, IT NOT ONLY HELPED SHAPE THE SOUND THAT CAME TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE AMERICAN PACIFIC NORTHWEST, BUT ACROSS THESE SPRAWLING, WIDE-OPEN 15 SONGS, MODEST MOUSE HELPED REDEFINE WHAT WAS POSSIBLE FOR GUITAR MUSIC. AS SUCH, THE LONESOME CROWDED WEST HAS OFTEN BEEN MIMICKED, BUT IT’S AWESOME OPEN-HEARTED EXISTENTIALISM AND MANIC AMBITION HAS RARELY BEEN MATCHED. A MODERN CLASSIC THAT DEMANDS REAPPRAISAL.
