Interstate 8

by Modest Mouse

Interstate 8 cover art

Bridging the gap between their earliest lo-fi cassette releases and their breakthrough studio album, this project captures the frantic, anxious energy of Isaac Brock's developing songwriting. The tracks frequently shift from lethargic, pastoral indie rock to explosive, unhinged post-hardcore freakouts. The title track perfectly distills the band's ongoing thematic obsession with aimless American travel and geographic isolation.
