User Reviews: Building Nothing Out of Something

  • Overall:

    Memorable album

    By Andrew  Aug 5, 2001 | 1 out of 1 found this Building Nothing Out of Something review helpful

    I didn't used to like modest mouse until I heard this album. The lyrics and melodies really speak to me in ways that their previous albums hadn't. Also, it flows suprisingly well for a compilation album. I love the songs with the girl doing the ba...ck up vocals like Interstate 8 and Gray Ice Water. After loving this album, I'm just starting to really get into the other albums. Read more Less

    it grows on you

    This disc is somewhat disjointed but upon repeated listenigs the songs take shape. Not as consistent(a compilation of ep releases) as "lonesome crowded west" but more like an afternoon disc as opposed to a night disc. Best disc cover I've seen in aw...hile. Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Building Nothing Out of Something

  • All Music Guide

    Building Nothing Out of Something collects Modest Mouse singles and rare tracks from the group's indie-label years, including the studio tracks from the Interstate 8 EP and their contributions to the Sub Pop Singles Club. Despite the songs' motley origins, Building Nothing Out of Something works well as an album, balancing the group's quirky and often poignant pop songs with their more abrasive rock side. The wonderfully dreamy, off-kilter "Interstate 8" and "Workin' on Leavin' the Livin'" (which cleverly quotes Eraserhead's "Lady in the Radiator Song") are two shining examples of the group's elastic, loopy guitar pop, while "All Nite Diner," "A Life of Arctic Sounds," and "Other People's Lives" define their high-strung rock sound. Slower songs like "Grey Ice Water" and the Santo Johnny homage "Sleepwalkin'" round out this look at Modest Mouse's diverse but consistently worthwhile indie output.

Modest Mouse

Issaquah, WA, indie rock trio Modest Mouse was formed in 1993 by vocalist/guitarist Isaac Brock, bassist Eric Judy, and drummer Jeremiah Green.
