I don't think most Modest Mouse fans know about these works, but they're great. Sad Sappy Sucker features a lot of older songs, some only with Brock singing or playing an instrument, that predate THis is a Long Drive for Someone With Nothing to Think About. Its probably not for the average Modest Mouse fan either, you have to really love Brock's words and have some sense of who he is as a human being to really understand and love Sad Sappy Sucker.
The Fruit That Ate Itself came out before THe Lonesome Crowded West and also features some of my favorite songs by Modest Mouse. If nothing else, this EP showcases Brock's ability to write from the heart and not sacrifice harmonious delivery.
