Modest Mouse Confirm US Tour 2021 & Share New Single
Modest Mouse are heading out on tour starting in August to support their upcoming album The Golden Casket.
The tour also shows in Boston, New Haven, DC, Detroit, Portland, San Francisco, Chicago’s Lollapalooza, Austin’s ACL Fest, Colorado’s Red Rocks and more. The Red Rocks show, as well as dates in Seattle, Oklahoma City, Nashville, and Cincinnati, are with Future Islands.
The band’s upcoming seventh album The Golden Casket will be out on June 25. It comes after their last album Strangers to Ourselves, which was released six years ago.
Produced with Dave Sardy and Jacknife Lee in Los Angeles and Modest Mouse’s Portland studio, the record is said to reflect “the liminal space between raw punk power and experimental studio science,” according to an official release.
The release adds: “The twelve tracks behave like amorphous organisms, undergoing dramatic mutations and mood swings that speak to the chronic tug-of-war between hope and despair that plays out in frontman [Isaac] Brock’s head.”
Before announcing the new record, Modest Mouse’s last release was 2019’s ‘Ice Cream Party’, their third track of that year which followed on from their 7″ single ‘Poison The Well’.
Modest Mouse have recently shared a video for lead single ‘We Are Between’, directed by Kyle Thrash, and featuring lead singer Isaac Brock.
