Modest Mouse - Parting of the Sensory (Official Visualizer)

Modest Mouse has always stuck out to me as a band that doesn't shy away from describing reality in all of its horror.

Modest Mouse feels like home. The worse I'm feeling, the louder I play it. And then I feel better.

Favorite band on the planet! ♥️

Play this at my funeral!

Modest mouse is my comfort. I grew up listening to them because of my mom, and she passed away when I was 13 from cancer. I always think of her when I hear any Modest Mouse song ❤

This album is a fucking masterpiece.

I've been contemplating the balloon as a tattoo ever since this album came out, and with its' resurgence I think it's time

I love Modest Mouse so much.

I wore this CD out back in the day, on constant repeat start to finish, just an absolute favorite of mine even to this day. Much aloha 🌺

Most underated song

I was a huge Pavement fan in the 90s - still am and huge Malkmus fan - and people would tell me I should listen to Modest Mouse and I never did. Then recently listening to 90s mixes here, everytime a song piqued my interest and I was like, "wow this is good - who is this?" It was always Modest Mouse. Now they are in heavy rotation.

This was better than good news

This is my….comfort MM song. I always come back to it. Since I got good news for ppl who love bad news in middle school, I’ve been faithfully buying their albums. But good news & we were dead were fucking magic.

This is my favorite modest mouse song of all time. I'm so hyped you guys released visuals for this one of a kind album!!!! ❤

Jeremiah Green you will be safe on your travels 😢

This is my favorite MM song!

[Verse 1] There's no work in walking in to fuel the talk I would grab my shoes, and then away I'd walk Through all the stubborn beauty, I'd start at the dawn Until the sun had fully stopped Never walking away from Just a way to pull apart Dehydrate back into minerals A lifelong walk to the Same exact spot [Chorus] Carbon's anniversary The parting of the sensory Old, old mystery The parting of the sensory [Verse 2] Who the hell made you the boss? We placed our chips in all the right spots But still lost Any shithead who had ever walked Could take the ship and do a much finer job These fit like clothes made out of wasps Ah, fuck it, I guess I lost [Chorus] The parting of the sensory Carbon's anniversary Just part it again if you please Carbon's anniversary [Verse 3] Who the hell made you the boss? If you say what to do, I know when not to stop If you were the ship, who would ever get on? The weather changed it for the worse And came down on us like it had been rehearsed Unlikely hope, but change will surely come It'd be awful for most, but really good for some I took a trip to the exact same spot We pulled the trigger, but we forgot to cock And every single shot... Ah, fuck it, I guess we lost [Bridge] Someday you will die and somehow Something's gonna steal your carbon, hey Someday you will die and somehow Something's gonna steal your carbon, hey-hey-hey Well, someday you will die somehow And something's gonna steal your carbon (Someday you will die somehow And something's gonna steal your) Someday you will die and someone's Or something will steal your carbon (Someday you will die somehow And something's gonna steal your) Someday something will die And somehow you'll figure out how often You will die somehow And something's gonna steal your carbon Something will die And you will probably just steal its carbon Someday you will die somehow And something's gonna steal your carbon, hey-hey-hey Someday, somehow, or something will die And you will steal its carbon Somehow you will die and you will figure out how often You will die somehow And something's gonna steal your carbon Someday you will die somehow And someone's gonna steal your carbon, hey Someday you will die, and somehow You will figure out how often [Outro] Someday you will die somehow And something's gonna steal your carbon You will die and somehow It's gonna steal your Always have to figure out and find out We were bathed in carbon You will figure out that somehow you will Well, someday you will die somehow And someone's gonna steal your carbon Parting of the Sensory by Modest Mouse Lyrics source: Genius

Still one of my go to listens since I was a preteen. I always tend to forget the actual name and remember the song by "Carbon's Anniversary." Love you fellas' always. ✌🤟💫

my daughter loved modest mouse and this song. She passed away 4/3/23 ….she is missed.

Been a while since I listened to this song, forgot that it makes me cry. Anyone know why this particular album was just uploaded?
