In the Aeroplane over the Sea album review


Most bands usually do not have great sophomore albums. However with In the Aeroplane over the Sea, Neutral Milk Hotel has fashioned not only a great sophomore album, but their best album as well. The album is a strange combination of folk ballads, psychedelia, and indie rock that excels from beginning to end. Jeff Mangum’s songwriting is as poetic as it is bizarre, making the entire album a musical and emotional journey. With its brilliant songwriting, experimental concept, and beautiful sound, In the Aeroplane over the Sea is truly unlike any other album.
