Isaac Brock originally wrote much of the material for his side project Ugly Casanova before it grew into a full Modest Mouse record. He produced most of it alongside Jacknife Lee and Suzy Shinn, with further production from Justin Raisen and Jeremy Sherrer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA rotating cast of drummers keeps the rhythms shifting, with Janet Weiss sitting in on the lead single. Brock has said the band played the songs together again and again until the parts clicked, and that some of them simply needed less guitar. You can hear that patience on Picking Dragons' Pockets, Third Side of the Moon and Life's a Dream, where the band's familiar nervous energy settles into roomier arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFifteen songs across four sides give the album space to wander, which suits a band that has always done its best work on the scenic route. It honours everything Modest Mouse have been while hinting at what they might still become.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57107624657201,"sku":"198704941979","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Modest_Mouse-An_Eraser_and_a_Maze_2LP.jpg?v=1792934572","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/modest-mouse-an-eraser-and-a-maze-2lp","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
