Built to Spill gets my vote.

Every time I hear Modest Mouse I like them less.

Modest Mouse but not by much seeing as I only like exactly 2 of their songs. They could both die for all I care.

Modest Mouse but only because I have never heard anything by Built To Spill, but based on the responses so far, once I listen to some I might change my mind.

Built to Spill- Consistent, solid records (even Ancient Melodies). Modest Mouse has had too much upheval, crisis etc for the entire catalogue to be as good. Also, you can bank of a Built to Spill live show being good any time, you roll the dice with MM as there is a touch of emotional instability in the band and if Brock is having a bad day, it just continues for a couple of hours on stage.

All that being said, Built to Spill have yet to release a masterpiece like Moon & Antarctica.

BTS, but not by a lot. I think they're both great bands.

I'm going to buck the trend and go with MM. I love BTS, but listen to MM more often.
