Neutral Milk Hotel

In the concert recorded on May 21, 2014, at the Roundhouse in London, Neutral Milk Hotel was celebrating their resurgence with a string of shows after a lengthy hiatus. The band, led by the enigmatic Jeff Mangum, initially broke into the indie scene with their seminal album 'In the Aeroplane Over the Sea' back in 1998, which remains a cornerstone of alternative rock. By the time of this live performance, they had released 'On Avery Island' (1996) and were enjoying the revival of interest that came from reunion tours. Interestingly, the songs performed that night, including favorites like 'Two-Headed Boy' and 'Holland, 1945,' showcase the band's affinity for blending lo-fi soundscapes with deeply emotional lyricism. This concert marks an essential moment for fans, as it reminded the world why Neutral Milk Hotel holds a special place in indie music history.
