Our Take

Neutral Milk Hotel's "In The Aeroplane Over The Sea" is like a strange, beautiful dream that you never want to wake up from. This album is a masterpiece of lo-fi indie folk that hits you right in the feels and doesn't let go.

From the haunting vocals of Jeff Mangum to the eclectic instrumentation that includes everything from trumpets to saws, every track on this album is a sonic adventure. The lyrics are poetic and bizarre, painting vivid and sometimes unsettling images that stick with you long after the music has stopped playing.

Standout tracks include the euphoric "Holland, 1945" with its infectious energy and the melancholic "Two-Headed Boy" which showcases Mangum's raw emotional delivery. "Oh Comely" is a sprawling epic that builds to a crescendo of cacophonous beauty, while "In The Aeroplane Over The Sea" is a hauntingly beautiful tribute to Anne Frank.

This album is not for the faint of heart, but if you're willing to dive into its weird and wonderful world, you'll be rewarded with a truly unforgettable listening experience. "In The Aeroplane Over The Sea" is a classic that deserves a place in every music lover's collection.
