The solo project/alter ego of Isaac Brock, mastermind of the widely acclaimed Modest Mouse. "Ugly Casanova" is based on Edgar Graham, a man who approached Modest Mouse at a show, displaying a gentle mental instability that endeared him to the band. He shared some of his songs and writing with the group, who persuaded him to commit to work to tape, then he disappeared. It's hoped Mr. Casanova reappears with the release of this album.
