Product Description

From Amazon.com

Frontman Isaac Brock's claim that he's being stalked by his own alter ego was not the first bit of evidence that Modest Mouse isn't your usual pop band. Witness the entirety of this 1996 indie debut from the Washington trio that inspired a major-label bidding war. This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About finds Brock cruising with cohorts Eric Judy and Jeremiah Green (plus an occasional cellist) through a landscape of intoxicatingly original lo-fi tunes. Sure, Brock's early vocals make Nikki Sudden sound like one smooth crooner, but their strained quality offset the primitive elegance of his guitar work, giving a passionate vulnerability to "Breakthrough," "Custom Concern," and other treatises on life in the lost lane. --Bill Forman

5.0 out of 5 stars 破滅の向こうに, 2004/7/19
By josh-oliver (China Shenzhen) - See all my reviews
 ヤケになった人を見てもあまりいい気持ちはしない。それなのに、このモデストマウスのファーストアルバムには気持ちの良い捨て鉢なエネルギーが溢れている。怒りや悲しみや退屈や虚しさが、ただ叫ばれるのではなくポップソングとして消化されることは簡単なことではないと思う。すべての曲作りを担当するボーカルのブロックアイザックは、ヤケになった素振りを見せながら、冷静な足腰を持った激情を歌う。
 ペイブメントのように不安定に安定しており、ピンバックのように粘着質に乾いている。そして、ピクシーズのように冷静で激しい。聴けば聴くほどこの激情の泥沼に気持ちよくはまってしまう。アルバム全体に流れるのは映画『ファイトクラブ』のラストシーンで流れるピクシーズの『where is my mind?』のような空気だと思う。笑いながら破滅する。破滅の向こうに希望を見つける。このモデストマウスのファーストアルバムはそんな現代の強さを切実に見つめている。

5.0 out of 5 stars タイトルに偽りなし, 2006/1/7
By psik - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
空虚な感情を抱いて、立ち止まりへたりこむような事は現実では許され
ません。何時も多くの様々な制約があり、それが人を追い立てます。
そのような現実に対して一種の「隠れ家」となるような音楽があり、
モデストマウスはその作り手の一つです(それも最上級の作り手です)。
彼らの作品の中でもこのファーストアルバムを推します。荒削りで
飾り気の無い音がやはり彼らの世界に似合うと思うからです。
乾いた冬の空気を感じさせる音は、どこまでも悲しく、またその裏に
は全てを許して微笑むような優しさがあります。
全16曲、トータル75分近い長尺な作品。一瞬たりとも気を抜けない
という感じではなく、だらだらと曲が続くのですが何度も聴く内に
その流れがたまらなく心地良い物になってゆきます。
タイトルの通り、このアルバムは一つの旅であると思います。
淡々と進む中で時折発見がある様に、どの曲にも輝く部分があります。
通して聴き終えた後、きっと忘れられない感慨を覚えるはずです。
