Their unlikely ascension to a major label didn't prevent Pacific Northwest trio Modest Mouse from pulling old-school indie rock moves.
In 2000, the band quietly released Night on the Sun, a limited four-song vinyl-only collection, on their early label Up Records.
Back on Epic, 2001's nattily named Everywhere and His Nasty Parlour Tricks brings the worthy songs on said collection to the light of the majority who have sadly said goodbye to the world of needles and RPM.
Completing the EP are three new songs and a subtly beautiful (not to mention weird) instrumental collage of tunes from the full-length The Moon & Antarctica.
