Former Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic (who also played with Eyes Adrift, Sweet 75, and Flipper) will appear on the next Modest Mouse record, which the band hopes to release in 2016.
Frontman Isaac Brock broke the news in a March 24 interview with Hot Press, saying Novoselic’s part "sounds like a bunch of boulders falling down a mountain.”
The musician-political activist was rumored to appear on Modest Mouse’s most recent album (Strangers To Ourselves, which dropped March 17) but the song he appeared on was withdrawn, since the band felt it would better fit its next album.
