Homework time AGAIN!

I've found out one very interesting thing since I started this blog... I really only post when I have work to do. It is a saturday night, almost midnight, and I'm posting cuz I have two FINAL papers to write by Friday and I really havent started... I'm a mess...

New *Rare* Neutral Milk Hotel

So... some new NMH has surfaced lately. I guess it's not new, but it's new to me! These were some of the first things that Jeff Magnum ever recorded about eleven years ago. I have a few of the songs in one place (finally!) so you dont have to run around everywhere to get it!

Neutral Milk Hotel - Samples from "Shannon's Monroe House Rare Demos"

For the full story, check out Shannon's Blog and The NMH .ORG

No rape, no drugs... just music... GOOD music.

I took this excerpt from This Girl Needs Therapy.

Ripped shamelessly from LJ user mountain_jew, and I'm just going to repeat it verbatim because I just don't think I can put it any better than she did.

this guy:


evolved into this suave motherfucker:



and made this pretty awesome cd:


which you can acquire here and here.

It's quite interesting, really. Apparently he was at a party one day, and he heard the Flaming Lips album The Soft Bulletin, and fell in love, quit his day job (see picture #1), and started making music that didn't involve wagging tails and two-year-olds. There's a bunch of pictures on his site of him with the Flaming Lips guys, apparently he has worked with them quite a bit. And seriously, this album isn't half bad. In fact, it's pretty darn good. And I find Steve strangely attractive.

And no, he did not die of a heroin overdose back in 1999, like I and most of the rest of the world thought he did. Apparently he's still having trouble getting people to believe he's still alive.
