There must have been a glitch somewhere because there is no way I listen to The Who that much. If I did then it wasn't Tommy, it was Live at Leeds.

7. Modest Mouse - Lonesome Crowded West ("Cowboy Dan" fuck yesss)


--- End quote ---

I've always been sure this was their best album. Convincing other people of this is exceedingly difficult and I never quite got why. Sure, "The Moon..." is a great album but it really fails to capture the intensity and energy of TLCW on a lot of levels. And yeah, Cowboy Dan is awesome (and even better live since they usually finish it with a crazy improv jam and it's so awesome). Point is, any year that you can get into this album is a good year musically, as far as I'm concerned.

This was my view for a very long time, but as of recent days I'm actually starting to prefer Building Nothing. It could just be my mental state, or it could be that every single fucking song on that record is two steps past brilliant.
