Everything’s great, then you’re at a funeral and interminable sadness sweeps you for the evening.

Salt for the wound.

Long, long time Modest Mouse fan - only discovered Seasick Steve a couple years go and today I discovered this:

Formation and early years: 1994-1999

In 1994, Isaac Brock, Jeremiah Green, Eric Judy and John Wickhart recorded their first EP, Blue Cadet-3, Do You Connect?, at Calvin Johnson’s Dub Narcotic Studios. It was released by K Records. A single, “Broke”, followed under Sub Pop that was recorded by Steve Wold (now better known asbluesman Seasick Steve) at Moon Studios. During this time, Modest Mouse also recorded what would have been their first album, Sad Sappy Sucker, but constant delays caused the album to be shelved and forgotten (it was officially released in 2001). Until making waves in the pop music world in 2004, many of their tours included stops at DIY/punk venues.

So, turns out some of my absolute favorite Modest Mouse material was not only influenced but recorded by the one and only Seasick Steve. Strangely satisfied with that. 

320 streaming and tumblr plug-in, two more reasons to enjoy the shit out of Spotify. Also, this soundtrack is an all-time favorite. (Know how I know you’re gay?)

Tall Ships - Books

Awesome song, takes a couple minutes to get there though. Or I’m still a little drunk.

Yes, they are phenomenal & a hundred percent less Rastafarian than my Marley’s.

Simeon’s Dilemma -  Why?

But I still hear your name in wedding bells
Will I look better or will I look the same rotting in hell?
You’re the only proper noun I need
