Modest Mouse are pumping out songs left and right in anticipation of their new album Strangers To Ourselves, with “Lampshades On Fire,” “Coyotes,” and “The Best Room” already out for streaming. Today, the band has shared yet another song with the music world, and for me, this could be my favorite one I have heard so far. It’s gotten me more amped for this release.
The name of the track is “The Ground Walks, With Time in a Box” and has a rhythmic, funk beat that the band has been known to utilize throughout their catalog, layered with multiple guitar tracks and a rapping vocal delivery from frontman Isaac Brock.
Stream the song below following the jump.
Strangers To Ourselves will be released on March 17, pushed two weeks back from its original March 3 release date. Pre-orders are still available for purchase here.
