It was on April Fool’s Day of 1996 when Neutral Milk Hotel first played at the legendary Cafe Au Go Go in Seattle, Washington. A whole new era of music was born that day. This was the first time that I had heard of Neutral Milk Hotel. By 1997, I had seen them play twice. They were still early in their career and they hadn’t yet garnered the recognition that they would achieve by 2000. They played on April Fool’s Day of 1997, at the same venue where they had first played, but this time they came with a full band and full sound. They had an EP called On Avery Island that had all of their big hit songs on it. The stand out song on this EP was “The King of Carrot Flowers, Pt. 1” (later released on In The Aeroplane Over The Sea).
I had never heard anything like Neutral Milk Hotel. It was like no other music that I had ever heard before. While most of my friends were listening to Nirvana and Pearl Jam, I was discovering this strange new band, slowly uncovering their albums over the next few years.
Neutral Milk Hotel was an American rock band formed in Ruston, Louisiana, by musician Jeff Mangum. The band's music featured a deliberately low quality sound, influenced by indie rock and psychedelic folk. Mangum was the band's lyricist, and wrote surreal and opaque songs that covered a wide range of topics, including love, spirituality, nostalgia, sex, and loneliness. He and the other band members played a variety of instruments, including nontraditional rock instruments like the singing saw, zanzithophone, and uilleann pipes. Neutral Milk Hotel began as one of Mangum's home recording projects, and in 1994, he released the song "Everything Is" on Cher Doll Records. The single's exposure convinced him to record more music under this name, and in 1996, he worked with childhood friend Robert Schneider to record the album On Avery Island. The album received modest reviews, and sold around 5,000 copies.
