Press

"Modern Condition brought the crowd to its feet with an upbeat mix of rock and hip hop, heavy beats and funky guitar all their own. Feeding off the crowd's energy, the guys jammed on stage... Throwing in original splashes of reggae and rap here and there, they also played spot on covers of Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall - Part 2," and Foster the People's hit "Pumped Up Kicks." It was all part of a feel-good act from a band that prefers to simply rock out."

— Nick Proulx, NDSU Spectrum

"This album has a very alternative feel; a lot of guitar and steady percussion... Reminds me of a group call AER. Regardless, sounds good. Modern Condition gives a fresh perspective of Hip Hop with their fast moving lyrics over jazzy guitar rifts and other interesting sounds... I wouldn’t say they are highly lyrical or conscious but they aren’t just talking about dumb $#!+. Overall good CD and deserves some radio time...

— Mark Rogers, KJHK Website

“Their experience shines through with an impressive stage presence, combined with a live band that when mixed with a variety of hip-hop and rock covers makes for a superb live show... They sprinkle in original music, punch you with a few covers and lace it all with some freestyles all with a funky positive vibe... They transcend genres and pull the best elements of all into one cohesive, positive vibe, that is Modern Condition.”

— Brandon Philbrick, Indie Raps

Modern Condition is releasing their EP "Freedom" on Saturday, September 15. The CD is a follow-up to their 2011 debut "The New Reality". In the past year, modcon raged through the midwest with their unique blend of hip-hop, rock and dance music. They've opened for Mike Posner, got ill with Chris Webby, played podunk bars in bumf*ck towns and backyard barbecues with the fam. The #freedom ep shows the continued growth of #modcon, musically, technologically and spiritually. This might be the last chance to see the Modern Condition live band, so you get down to the Red Carpet on 9/15/12 and get your #freedom. Doors: 10pm 21+ , $3

Questions

Ask Modern Condition anything...

Q: I have reported to Modern Condition that I'm amazed by the Mod Con One vid & now have an idea for how to mention it in my 50-year history book project on cultural influences within the Minnesota region, according to a single woman's perceptions (me). I don't have a deadline. There's some fiction. Can you think of a business that a single woman might call & be put on hold & be lucky to listen to Mod Con One?

A: Sorry for the delay in answering you question. Hopefully, it's not too late to get you some info on the song/vid. If you'd like to chat more about it, shoot us an email at moderncondition@yahoo.com. #modcon
