There are currently plans to release a two-volume set of early Neutral Milk Hotel, featuring music from the early, self-released cassettes, live performances, and unreleased recordings. The band wants to do this as a result of the excessive prices at which bootlegs are currently selling online and elsewhere. They will be available from Orange Twin. No date has been decided upon for released. It could be awhile in the future. Jeff has been working on a collection of short stories. He also just joined the circus and wants to make a movie about snails.
Neutral Milk Hotel have released two acclaimed albums that have established singer and guitarist Jeff Mangum as one of the most accomplished songwriters of the decade. Hopefully, the information provided in this site will be of use both to people who have just heard the group and to those who have been interested for many years. The current members of the band besides Mangum are Julian Koster, who plays the saw, accordion, bass, and banjo; Scott Spillane, who plays the trumpet, euphonium, flugelhorn, and guitar; and drummer Jeremy Barnes. Thanks to Those Who Have Helped Matt Billings (Athens concert pics), Kristen Blake (articles), Jeff Mangum, Jason Kau (samples and free server space), Jim Romeo, Dianna Lyons (articles), Merge Records, Autotonic Publicity, and Dylan, Mike Runion, and others (setlists). |
