The addictive bouncy guitar part of "Float On" by Modest Mouse is stuck in my head. After further listening to Modest Mouse (since last time I posted one of their songs) and playing this song in particular on Rock Band, I think I would love Modest Mouse if it were not for the style of singing by Isaac Brock. Perhaps it is my years of singing in choir that just make me think he is not good. He almost has something unique and interesting. He is almost like David Byrne, lead singer of Talking Heads. But no. It is just unpolished and unoriginal. Isaac almost ruins the song for me. I love the rest of it though, and if I didn't like it over all I would not post it. I tend not to post the music I don't like or go on about what I don't like about a song. I'm not here to rate or critique for the most part. It just bugs me because I think they could be great.
Regardless, it is the song stuck in my head. Thus per my own personal rules, it is the song of the day!
