Modest Mouse filled the house at the Brooklyn Bowl, located in the heart of Germantown, Nashville. The line outside was buzzing with anticipation and exhilarated vibes. The Cribs, the opener, did an electric job at warming up the room with nearly mosh pit energy. Modest Mouse followed and brought their highly admired versatility throughout their set. Wicked guitar riffs and bass licks lit up the building; causing outsiders to look into the building with positive curiosity. The bowlers stopped striking and peered over the separating wall from the two rooms. The crowd had hands high and ears enchanted by Issac Brock’s beautiful story telling lyrics. It had only been a year since the band came to town, but it was indubitable the crowd was fulfilled.
