Neutral Milk Hotel - On Avery Island (Deluxe) 2LP
A lovingly prepared reissue of the 1996 debut by Neutral Milk Hotel.
Jeff Magnum's songs are cryptic and crazed, his ideas fast and furious, and together they force the home-recording concept out of the basement and into a brave new world, a fuzzy masterpiece of experimental lo- recording. Full of rapid wordplay with true and heartfelt experimentation, both ambitious and eclectic, it's not hard to see why this has been such an influential album.
Part of the fabled Elephant 6 collective, Neutral Milk Hotel won over many a music critic with this cult classic.
