It takes a minute for me to be connected with Isaac Brock, lead singer and songwriter for revered indie-rock band Modest Mouse.

Weekly Playlist #13: Songs Vs. The Scene
“Everyone’s a critic,” they say, but the artists-turned-sneering cynics in this playlist are not only critical, they’re self-aware—and they want you to know it.
