In the year 2000, Modest Mouse graduated from the scrappy, low-fi punks that we knew and loved to became critically-acclaimed major label artists. Join Steve and Keith as they look back at the circumstances surrounding the release of The Moon & Antarctica, their initial reactions to the band's new direction, and an assessment of the work twenty years on.
Along the way they delve into such subjects as the impact CDs had on the flow of albums, the terrorist attacks of 9/11, and PJ Harvey.
