Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse.
They are out there. It’s only a matter of where, how far away and how much more advanced. I reckon they are many, very far away and ridiculously more advanced. The big mystery will be their music tastes. I am confident there are morose teens, probably male, in the Coma Cluster right now whose lives could use a little Smiths.
The undeniable existence of alien life crashed, UFO like, into an interview I was doing this week with Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse. I am a major fan. I can remember exactly where I was when I first heard their 2004 single Float On. I still think it is one of the best tracks of the 21st century.
