Is this the most robot band ever?
>>
built to spill is also good
>>
>>27450338
They have a lot of good songs about drugs too. That album is one of my favorites and Bankrupt on Selling is one of my fav songs. Moon and Antartica is also one of my favorite albums by them
>>
No. Lots of roasties like Modest Mouse.
>>
>>27450431
Liking only one song doesn't mean you like Modest Mouse. I'm also talking about Long Drive/LCW/M&A era Modest Mouse.
>>
no, th.is is

(Still not all that great)
>>
>>27450338
No. Lots of bands are more robot: TMBG, Devo, Alestorm, Slipknot, and Panic at the Disco just to name a few.

This is the only not shit band posted here so far and even they only have like two good albums. robots have shit taste
>>
Linkin park
>>
>>27450614
>thinking you have patrician taste because you don't like bands that lots of other people like

Get over yourself, mate.
>>
Weezer is the most robot band

>I'M ALIVE LIKE YOU, SO PLEASE, HELLO, I'M HERE, I'M WAITING
>I THINK I'D BE GOOD FOR YOU AND YOU'D BE GOOD FOR ME

>WE WERE GOOD AS MARRIED IN MY MIND
>BUT MARRIED IN MY MIND'S NO GOOD

This is the only true answer, I mean look at this
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QX3l5AXn734
>>
>>27450723
they are mostly beta normie core I think.

their discography is like an indie romcom with attractive leads who are still "losers" in school
>>
The smiths.
>>
>>27450700
>just broke 300k Spotify followers
>5 million views
>not a mainstream band
https://youtu.be/Puph1hejMQE

Which brings me to
> wow you don't like a shitty band just because it's popular there is no other way

???
>>
>>27450762
The rest of their discog is pretty normal but Pinkerton is definitely robot-core. Rivers Cuomo was in a deep, lonely depression while he was writing the album and I think that describes a lot of Anons
>>
memes aside, Radiohead despite their popularity are quite robotic. Johnny greenwood in particular is a very weird guy, he's the real musician in the band. you have to be pretty fucked in the head to write the stuff he writes. compositionally it's really whacky shit
>>
>>27450785
Listen to We Were Dead by Modest Mouse if you like the Smiths. Johnny Marr was part of Modest Mouse for that album.
>>
The Kinks speak to my inner robot
>>
>>27450988
they were writing about traps 40 years before traps went mainstream

Apeman is their best song though

modest mouse is without a doubt my favorite band
long drive and moon and anatartica are good but you have to hear there casettes
>>
who the fuck is modest mouse?
>>
Yea MM is definitely robot-tier. Admittedly, most of their releases since good news are leaning towards normiecore, they still make genuine music.
>>
this song

I love modest mouse, but I'll admit it's a really normie band. Still though liking this band can give you the chance of bonding with a cute hippy girl. People usually like people that like the same music as them and what >>27450431 said is true.
>>
The Who is pretty robot for me.

>no one know what it's like to feel these feelings
>like I do
>and I blame you
>no one bites back as hard on their anger
>none of my pain or woe, can show through

That one hits me hard... In fact I think I'm gonna listen to that album now to end my shitty day.

if it doesn't have a 4x4 beat, and sounds of cars being put through a metal grinder it isn't robot pals

Literally tumblr: the band.

Actually, disregard that, I'm an idiot. You see, most bands posted here are tumblr the moment you all start listening to them and post them here, because only tumblr-like tards care about whether or not something is robot or normie or whatever.

Basing your taste on how people will perceive you or if it is akin to that of a certain community, is tumblr behavior. You're basically seeing art as a fashion accessory.

You could be the elusive "true robot" and be blasting your pop playlist, with call me maybe playing as I type this post.

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say.

Dystopia is /r9k/

Modest Mouse is failed normo / high IQ white trash music

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agjf_QK4I9o

Edit The Sad Parts is the best early-era Modest Mouse song most people haven't heard

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5pojx6kflw

>>27452720
there was a video of from a documentary about poeople throwing themselves off golden gate bridge
check youtube for it edit the sad parts is great

Any robots go to Sydney concert last week
Shit was good
Too many faggot hipsters tho
>>
>>27452720
>>27453233
Edit the sad parts is by far my favorite modest mouse song. Buttons to push bottons and white lies, yellow teeth are good.
>>
Shellac is the most robotcore I can think of. They're not my favorite band but if they don't capture the most dire details of the robot's plight, then fucking nobody does.

Besides them, Quicksand, Farside, and Ten Foot Pole are all pretty robo.
>>
>>27454166
shella
https://youtu.be/O66vYuc4tnI
one of my favorite "songs"
>>
>>27454166

I'm on a road shaped like a figure 8.

Honestly wish they stopped a little before they got successful and more normie. /hipster/ i know.
