An Indie Band that shockingly made good, Modest Mouse took about a decade to make the mainstream, but once they did, caught the attention of the world. Whether or not they can keep that momentum is in doubt as their successful album of the late 00’s seems like a distant memory, but any Indie band that makes good (even if for a brief time) does matter in the Rock and Roll spectrum.
