Guitarist  joined the band in 2009. The band's sixth album, , was released on March 17, 2015. The band's name is derived from a passage from the  story "," which reads, "I wish I could hit upon a pleasant track of thought, a track indirectly reflecting credit upon myself, for those are the pleasantest thoughts, and very frequent even in the minds of modest, mouse-coloured people, who believe genuinely that they dislike to hear their own praises."It was during his teenage years that Brock, who at the time was employed at the local family video store just outside Seattle, met bassist . Brock and Judy later ran into drummer , who also resided near Seattle, at a heavy metal show and decided to make music together. In 1994, Modest Mouse recorded its first , , at 's Dub Narcotic Studios. It was released by . A single, "", followed under  that was recorded by Steve Wold (a.k.a. bluesman ) at Moon Studios in .

It was not until 2001 that it was officially released. Before making their way into the pop music world in 2004, many of Modest Mouse's tours included stops at DIY/punk venues.

After moving to , Modest Mouse released two full-length albums and other recordings recorded at Moon Studios, including the 1996 LP . This album was produced and recorded by Steve Wold (at the time Wold was assisting in the recordings as well, but was not officially part of the band). The next offering was , also produced by Wold. The 1997 album, , (also recorded at Moon Studios, by Scott Swayze) turned out to serve as the band's breakthrough. The Lonesome Crowded West gained the band a , and is now popularly considered to be one of the defining albums of mid-1990s indie rock. During this time, Nick Kraft was brought in to refine the band's sound. Prior to its release, the band had recorded the EP . In 1999, Up Records released a singles and rarities collection entitled  that included the entirety of Interstate 8 except for the songs "Edit the Sad Parts" and "Buttons to Push the Buttons".
