Identical article

Er. Forgive my lack of knowledge in editing this, but Last.fm has pretty much the same exact article about Isaac. http://www.last.fm/music/Isaac+Brock/+wiki I don't know who's copying who, I just thought it should be brought to attention. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.0.185.120 (talk • contribs) 9 March 2006.

Black eye?

Does anyone have any info about the black eye he had when he appeared on Comedy Central's New Years show thingy? They came out under the name of "Timid Turtle" - and he had a big black eye. Fight? Sgarza 18:34, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I remember at another public appearance, I think it was the grammys or something like that, on the red carpet (he was pretty drunk from what I remember) he said he had the make-up artist do it as a joke. Don't know how true that is though. 24.34.72.226 05:50, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Brock is nasty

This guy is seriously messed up -- it's obvious just from listening to the song lyrics. They're so angry and mean-spirited. Of course, if somebody abandoned you on the top floor of a flooded, uninhabitable home, you might be fucked up, too. --Rhombus 21:45, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What the fuck does "balls to the wall" mean? --130.238.5.5 20:58, 19 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

What doesnt that mean?

Heheh.... i dunno This guy is a great artist and has a great band

Shouldn't this mention, at least in passing, his obvious alcoholism?

-Nah, It's already blatent... But, it should give an example of his lyrics and mention his obvious genious.

i was told by the guy that introduced me to the band that he was a heroin addict up until their most recent cd, which featured float on (and i know how terrible this sounds), but that that is why their latest cd wasnt so great.

Bull C#@P

I know most of this article is BS. I grew up with Isaac in Issaquah and graduated at the same high school in 1994. I saw where he lived from the time he was in 4th grade till 8th then we ran in diffrent circles. He lived in appartments next to the elementry school. He then went to the alternitive high school. As far as the father thing I dont know and before that I dont know and after high school I dont know. But best of luck to him. Its all nice on ice apparently.

Without verifiable sources we can't add this info to the article – see WP:V. --Muchness 09:12, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be vandalism/nonsense...If you really grew up with him, prove it...I don't know how you would, but whatever. Arnesh 11:13, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a music forum/myspace

Half of the posts on this talk page have nothing to do with this article and are basically just are arguements that basically boil down to "Modest Mouse sucks! Brock is an asshole!" or "Brock's lyrics have changed my life.", etc. Even talk pages have limits. I'm going to remove these unconstructive comments. Only post things that will actually improve this article. Arnesh 11:06, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should be lenient as to what is placed on the discussion pages. 80.47.225.147 12:40, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Accent/Lisp?

I know this sounds rude, but I really like I'm not sure. if it's an accent or a lisp that he has, but I like the tone it brings to his voice. Does anyone happen to know anything about this? JavaDog 22:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Brock does have a lisp, but maybe he recognizes and accepts it. It make him individual as a singer.

I rather favor it. I was wondering if it has some kind of name to it? JavaDog 01:30, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
