Well personally modest mouse are my favorite band at the moment and this album is what made them it for me.
i hadn't been listening to modest mouse alot recently untill i put the old ipod on random and hoped for the best, and i got just that. With their completely unique sound and amazing talent to produce originality, no one can resist this.
Good New for People Who Love Bad News is an album ranging in tempo and emotion. It has songs like 'The View','Dance Hall' and 'Black Cadillacs' which are good examples of their upbeat songs, but on the other hand thery have songs like 'Float On' and 'Blame it on the Tetons' for their more soft songs.
The song 'Bukowski' is probably my favorite on the album because it is one of those songs that has the repete factor, no matter how many times you play it, you'll never tier of it.
Although in my view this album is amazing, i can see its down points from a listener, such us modest mouse are so organic and original that it's a sound that people aren't used to and could be put off by that.
Definatly try out the album, it's a great one for any mood, try listening some of their songs on myspace or last.fm.
I give this album a 8/10 and would describe it as epic.
