"When I was 20 i had this weird job driving around Alberta testing power poles. I remember this one day where we were close enough to Calgary to pick up college radio so we were listening to that all day. By the time we were ready to quit for the day we had ended up in this crazy beautiful river valley in the middle of the prairies when this Modest Mouse song came on and pretty much blew my mind. It was one of those songs where after you hear it you realize that this was the song that you'd always wanted to hear but never heard. That and it just fit the moment so perfectly, in a truck, in the middle of the prairies, driving home from work listening to some white trash kid from idaho sing about taking car sickness drugs and traveling. I've had that record since then and it still holds up every time I play it."
