The story

Night on the Sun is an EP by alternative rock band Modest Mouse, released 6 June 1999 as a Japan-only album, again in 2000 as a 12" vinyl in the US and UK, and re-issued in 2016. The tracks on the Japan's Rebel Beat Factory label were taken from The Moon & Antarctica demos that were sent to Epic Records. The four tracks on the vinyl release were included on the 2001 EP Everywhere and His Nasty Parlour Tricks. Extra percussion on "I Came As A Rat " was provided by Ben Massarella and bass on "You're the Good Things" was played by Ben Blankenship.
