What a splendid song. "When time met life shook hands and said goodbye," is such a beautiful line.
If anyone is a true modest mouse fan, they should be embracing this album, not screaming 'sell out!'. Each album is different from the previous, and the most recent addition is no exception.
Keep floatin'.
To all of the above user comments, this lyric does not deserve your worthless blabberings.
here here. ahem six years later. as long as the product is true its no sell out. i have been a huge fan for a while and its nice to see them get some recognition for their genius.it does bother me when ppl say they love them and have only heard this one album, but you know everyone has to start someday. i doubt many ppl have been fans of their favorite bands since the get go. the over-all goal is to love and enjoy the music. who cares if it is "underground" or mainstream. its all just adding to...

Yeah. I agree with Mynaeisyou12. The first time I heard of Modest Mouse is from this album, although I did listen to a lot of their older stuff as well and I must say that their older stuff is better, but Modest Mouse are definetly not sell-outs. I could help explaing part of the sell-out point. Sell-outs only make music for money, but non sell-outs make their music for several different reasons like the love of music, to make a meaning in other's lives, or just making others feel better.

@roland Damn right. It took a bit but even Strangers to Ourselves grew on me, people forget this band is a slow burn. These songs are extended release, it takes a while for them to dissolve.
