In The Aeroplane Over The Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel: Episode 157

Spin It!

What a beautiful face we have found in this place.. it's the face of a tambourine! We're entering the Year Of Discovery on a strong note and talking about In The Aeroplane Over The Sea, the second and final album by the mysterious and eclectic Neutral Milk Hotel. This cult classic record is a sonic journey through Jeff Mangum's haunted carnival of lucid dreams and WWII imagery, with a little bit (lotta bit?) of Anne Frank sprinkled throughout. We'll explore goopy, disjointed lyrics, innovative distortion techniques, singing saws, and more as we head back to Holland, 1945. The Mixtaper is teaching us about donkey cheese and expensive chess in another installment of Foxtrot Oscar Sierra! From those red lips to the Two-Headed Boy, we hit it all this week! How strange it is to be anything at all, and this album might just be even stranger.
