This is a hard lp to review. It is not like anything else I have heard, so comparing it to anything else is difficult. Its a great listen, weird lyrics backed by strange instrumentation along with the singers unique voice. Great cd to play all the way through.

-I dont understand most of the lyrics on this album. Reminds me of Nirvana how half of their songs dont even make sense.
-The most obscure arrangment of instruments ever put together...Wait...is that a trumpet I hear in the background?
-The guy singing is always off note and out of tune and is very nasal sounding. He'd probably get laughed at if he ever sang acapella. Actually I did laugh out loud at the part where hes screaming "I love you jesus christ" at the top of his lungs, and I still laugh my ass off every time I hear it.
Having said all that, whenever I listen to this album I get the feeling that when they were making it, it could have so easily turned into an utter failure. But instead what you have here is sheer genius. I love this album. I once went driving for 4 hours and listened to it back to back the entire time. Never gets boring but instead gets better with every listen.
"never heard of the band before"

I just listened to this cd for the first time this morning. I don't know why I have never heard of this band before. I found it by looking at the recomended items from amazon and I now want to buy another of their albums.
I am sure not everyone will like this. I can't even really describe what kind of music it is. But the sound clips give you a good idea. I like this kind of sometimes somber sounding music, and I love the saw and trumpets.
Neutral Milk Hotel's Aeroplane over the sea is a classic album that everyone must get to know. I don't care who you are, go listen to it, give it a chance. It's strange and pretty and sweet. Anne Frank and sex and fuzzy guitars and pure/raw singing and acoustic love. Do it. You know you want to.
"Perhaps the bravest and most brilliant pop record ever"
I'm consistently amazed that every time I listen to this CD, it never sounds dated, old, tired or lacking. In fact, I don't even put it on anymore unless I've got a reasonable chance of listening all the way through uninterrupted because I'll simply be annoyed at being torn away from it before the end.
Jeff Mangum, seemingly out of simple naive bravado, performs his heart out. Screeching out lyrics that are nonsensical yet communicative, his melodies are also equal parts quirk and polish. The fuzz bass that ties the whole thing together makes it move, while the assortment of guitars, harmoniums and horns create the ornamentation.
Certainly a master work that is high on invention and low on convention. As others here have mentioned, this isn't for everyone, but it is dripping with artistic value.
