Ahead of their forthcoming album The Golden Casket, out June 25 on Epic Records, iconic alt-rockers Modest Mouse have shared new single “Leave a Light On.” The track, which follows previous single “We Are Between,” is a textural diversion for Modest Mouse, playing with sputtering percussive effects and lush, pop-inspired pads. “Leave a Light On” finds singer Isaac Brock, per press release, “navigating the existential threat of losing our humanity—and the interconnectedness that come with it—amidst a constant societal barrage of physical and digital materialism.”
Modest Mouse has also announced a tour in support of The Golden Casket, kicking off July 27 in Chicago, Illinois, at Lollapalooza. The band will then wrap around the U.S. before concluding Oct. 22 in Asheville, N.C.
Tickets for Modest Mouse’s tour go on sale May 26 at 10 a.m. local time, with more information available at their website. Below, check out the visualizer for “Leave a Light On” and a full list of their U.S. tour dates, before revisiting our top 10 Modest Mouse songs here.
