Just got done reading a post by Lyla, http://mog.com/blog_post/view/42369, regarding the band Neutral Milk Hotel. She commented that not a lot of people have talked about this band and after thinking about it, I agree with her. So, while she is stuck at work, I am going to kick some knowledge about this band.With only two full albums out, they have gained sort of a cult following. Bands like Fr...

Track:
I'm going to Nice, France tomorrow (with YellowBird) and being on a plane is one of my favourite places to listen to music, especially during take-off. Thankfully I can hide the earphones with my hair so the air stewards don't see and make me turn it off :)We usually listen to the same album on our own ipods when we fly, sorta synchronised, and we usually choose a new release which we haven't h...

Track:Gardenhead / Leave Me Alone
I'm sorry for another *NMH* post. I can't help it. And anyhow, this song is great. But then again, so are all the other ones. I'd include Holland 1945 and Oh, Comely if I could. Yeesh.Gardenhead / Leave Me AloneThere are beads that wrap Around your knees that crackle into the dark,Like a walk in the park like a hole in your head,Like the feeling you get when you realize you're dead.This ti...

So I got into the University of Georgia in Athens. Should be an exciting time, but I have to admit it isn't my number one choice. Or my number two. Or three...I've whittled the college list down to five, and I like all the schools equally but for different reasons. It's beginning to come down to where I can realistically survive the craziness of college life and not go absolutely insane. I...

So i've been thinking about this lately, and i've officially decided and declared to my friends that My Favorite Band of All Time is no longer Led Zeppelin. This has nothing whatsoever to do with Zeppie, because I love them, but more to do with my accepting that despite the fact that this band has only ever actually released two (2) albums, I love them. Adore, really, if I'm honest. Anyhow, ...

Track:The King Of Carrot Flowers, Pt. One
I'm reading Food & Wine at In & Out, the kid this-close next to me is scribbling a post card, addressed to Australia. It’s the Hollywood kind, a big picture of the star-walk and the sign. The kind I might send, for the irony, if I were the kind to send post cards home. If I could remember to send post cards. I want to ask him if it’s all everything he hoped; I’d like him to tell me how it fe

So, thanks to a fellow Mogger I found my "one and only savior" while reading an article about Jeff Mangum, which actually wasn't in a post about him or Neutral Milk Hotel but rather about Miles Kurosky. Anyway, I'll confess, my muscial repertoire isn't too expansive; I had no idea who Mangum was (gasp). But, I'm always intrigued by that which I know nothing of and took my musical naivety to t...

But I just had to.From Pitchfork: Elephant 6 Crew to Embark on "Holiday Surprise Tour" Pretty cool. Like it says there's no guarantee Jeff Mangum will be there. But, I mean, the guy hasn't done jack shit in like 8 years....he's gotta be bored just sitting around his house all day.He is in this though. A short film that also includes Kevin Barnes from of M...

So I have a friend who is fairly new to the "indie" rock scene, having listened to the genre for the last 5 years but really not delving into it until very recently. Well Saturday while we were out catching a most excellent show (more on that in the next post) he proposed a challenge for me, asking me to come up with a list of 15 to 20 must have indie rock CDs all being from different artists t...

Speaking of my freshman year, and our obsessively-listening-to-and-talking-about-music phase, I remember the first time I heard *Neutral Milk Hotel*. The very first time.Steph came to room, handed me the semi-odd looking album _In the Aeroplane Over the Sea_, and said "Listen to it and tell me what you think," and walked out.I put the disc in, automatically ripped it onto my computer (sheer f...

It seems to be an odd twist of fate that I recently finished reading the 33 1/3 series on "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel and immediately came to realize that it celebrated its 10 year Anniversary on February 10th. The story of Neutral Milk Hotel is not like that of many other popular bands. At what some would consider the starting point of a successful career, the main s...
