the advantage to reading a small blog

Anyone curious to hear what the new modest mouse album sounds like? It's called We were dead before the ship even sank but you already knew that.

Download it in compressed format over here (file removed- perhaps this could be called "the advantage to checking a small blog frequently".) I'm not exactly recommending this album you (anyone unfamiliar need not download it) so much as making people aware of it.

Filter has a little first impressions review of the record, and they pretty much nail it: "Keeps the trademark guitar bendy sounds." Yep.
