WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG YOU WERE THE KING OF CARROT FLOWERS |
|||
'''Neutral Milk Hotel''' was an [[United States|American]] indie rock band formed by singer, guitarist and songwriter [[Jeff Mangum]] in the early 1990s. The band was noted for its experimental sound, obscure lyrics and eclectic instrumentation.<ref name=pitchforkreview>{{cite web|last=Richardson|first=Mark|date=September 26, 2005|title=Neutral Milk Hotel: In the Aeroplane Over the Sea|url=http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/5758-in-the-aeroplane-over-the-sea/|work=[[Pitchfork Media]]|accessdate=May 31, 2011}}</ref> |
|||
The first release under the Neutral Milk Hotel moniker was the 1994 [[extended play|EP]] ''[[Everything Is (EP)|Everything Is]]'', a short collection of tracks featuring Mangum. On the band's full-length debut album ''[[On Avery Island]]'', which followed shortly thereafter, Mangum was joined by childhood friend and [[The Apples in Stereo]] frontman [[Robert Schneider]], who contributed production and instrumentation. Upon the album's release, the full band was formed and extensive touring began. |
|||
Neutral Milk Hotel released ''[[In the Aeroplane Over the Sea]]'' in 1998, which became their best-known and most critically acclaimed album.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.neutralmilkhotel.org/disco1-nmh.htm|title=Neutral Milk Hotel releases|work=NeutralMilkHotel.org|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> Although the album did not meet commercial success at the time of release, it has gone on to sell over 300,000 copies and received critical acclaim from several publications, including [[Pitchfork Media]], ''[[Magnet (magazine)|Magnet Magazine]]'', [[Allmusic]], and The [[Pazz & Jop]] poll.<ref name=pitchforkreview/><ref name=slate>{{cite web|last=Taylor|first=Clark|date=February 26, 2008|url=http://www.slate.com/articles/arts/music_box/2008/02/the_salinger_of_indie_rock.single.html|title=The Salinger of Indie Rock: What happened to Jeff Mangum?|work=[[Slate (magazine)|Slate]]|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref><ref name=amg_review>{{cite web|last=Ankeny|first=Jason|title=In the Aeroplane Over the Sea|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/in-the-aeroplane-over-the-sea-mw0000032195|work=[[Allmusic]]|accessdate=May 31, 2011}}</ref><ref name=pazzjop98>{{cite web|title=The 1998 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll|url=http://www.robertchristgau.com/xg/pnj/pjres98.php|work=RobertChristgau.com|date=March 2, 1999|accessdate=May 31, 2011}}</ref> Despite growing popularity, the group disbanded in 1999 after Mangum became disenchanted with touring and the music press, later having a nervous breakdown.<ref name=slate/> |

Neutral Milk Hotel is a part of [[The Elephant 6 Recording Company]], based in [[Athens, Georgia]]. The band was one of Elephant 6's three first projects, alongside [[The Apples in Stereo]] and [[Olivia Tremor Control]].<ref>{{cite web|last=McMullen|first=Phil|month=September|year=1996|url=http://www.neutralmilkhotel.net/pt.html|title=Neutral Milk Hotel|work=NeutralMilkHotel.net|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> |

==History== |
|||
===Origins=== |
|||
{{unreferenced section|date=October 2012}} |
|||
Jeff Mangum, along with high-school friends [[Will Cullen Hart]] and [[Bill Doss]], formed [[The Olivia Tremor Control]], with Mangum appearing on their first release, the ''[[California Demise]]'' 7". |
|||
Prior to recording for friends under the NMH moniker, Mangum recorded a few cassettes under the name Milk; the most well-known of these tapes was called ''Pygmie Barn in E Minor''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.elephant6.com/disco/milk1.html|title=E6 Catalog - Milk|work=Elephant6.com|archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20080720101837/http://www.elephant6.com/disco/milk1.html|archivedate=July 20, 2008|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> These are the earliest known recordings that Mangum initiated and executed himself. There were only an estimated dozen or so copies ever made of this tape, none of which has been made public. It was revealed c. 2006 on the Elephant 6 online forums that another tape under said name, entitled ''Beauty'', was released, along with several recordings under the name ''Ruby Bulbs'' (also a song dating from that era, perhaps the only Milk song to be played by Neutral Milk Hotel). |
|||
Neutral Milk Hotel began simply as a recording project for Mangum, in the early 1990s. He produced several demo cassettes, among them 1991's ''[[Invent Yourself a Shortcake]]'', 1992's ''[[Beauty (album)|Beauty]]'' (not to be confused with the earlier cassette), and 1993's ''[[Hype City Soundtrack]]'', along with two more from this period, seemingly unnamed. Although easily found on the Internet, these demos capture the project at a very embryonic stage: songs are played in between various sound collages and tape experiments, one of which consists only of a six minute conversation between Mangum and Hart. Another track, "Digestion Machine", features a varied collage of voices answering the question asked by Mangum, "What does the digestion machine mean to you?" The more accessible "Synthetic Flying Machine", also titled "Up and Over", later became "The King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 3" on ''[[In the Aeroplane Over the Sea]]''. |
|||
During this period, Mangum was wandering the country, staying in the closets of friends, and in a state of perpetual unemployment. It was in these circumstances that the band's first formal releases took shape. Strictly speaking, however, the 'band' usually consisted of Mangum and whoever else was present at the time. This is obvious on Neutral Milk Hotel's first release, a 7" record entitled ''Everything Is'', recorded when Mangum was spending time in [[Seattle, Washington|Seattle]], [[Washington (U.S. state)|Washington]], released on [[Cher Doll Records]] in 1994. |
|||
===''On Avery Island''=== |
|||
A full album, ''[[On Avery Island]]'', followed, this time recorded in [[Denver, Colorado]] on a four-track reel-to-reel tape machine, where Mangum was backed by the album's producer [[Robert Schneider]] of [[The Apples in Stereo]], Rick Benjamin of The Perry Weissman 3 and Lisa Janssen of [[Secret Square]]. It was released by [[Merge Records]] in 1996. |
|||
After the release of ''Avery Island'', Neutral Milk Hotel became a fully-fledged band, as Julian Koster, Scott Spillane and Jeremy Barnes joined Mangum, the band now being based in [[New York City]]. Soon after this, they moved to [[Athens, Georgia]], where many of Mangum's friends had begun to settle, and the [[Elephant 6]] recording company began to take shape. After this, the band went back to Denver, to record a proper follow up to ''On Avery Island''. |
|||
===''In the Aeroplane Over the Sea''=== |

The band's second album, ''[[In the Aeroplane Over the Sea]]'', released in 1998 and also produced by [[Robert Schneider]], is notable as a critically acclaimed and widely popular album. It is largely inspired by the story of holocaust victim [[Anne Frank]] {{Citation needed|date=April 2013}}. During live performances, including the one released under the title ''Live at Jittery Joe's'', Mangum has described some of the songs off this album as based on urgent, recurring dreams he had of a Jewish family during [[World War II]]. The album was highly praised by critics for its wildly inventive instrumentation and Mangum's provocative and impassioned lyrics.<ref name=pitchforkreview/> Although it was met with scant response from the general public when it was released, the recording has continued to gain momentum in [[indie rock|indie]] [[music]] circles, selling over 300,000 copies, according to [[Merge Records]].<ref>{{cite book|last=Cooper|first=Kim|year=2005|title=In the Aeroplane Over the Sea|publisher=Continuum International|location=New York|isbn=0-8264-1690-X}}</ref> However, the record (along with the year of constant touring that succeeded it) took its toll on Mangum. The band abruptly went on hiatus, turning down all requests for shows, including a support slot for [[R.E.M.]]<ref name=slate/><ref>{{cite web|last=Griffis|first=Kevin|date=September 4, 2003|url=http://atlanta.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A13178|title=Have you seen Jeff Mangum?|work=Creative Loafing|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> |
|||
Before Neutral Milk Hotel began their indefinite hiatus, Mangum played live at a house show on December 5, 1998 in Athens on Chris Bilheimer's birthday.<ref name="Cooper_pp94-95">{{citation|author=Cooper|year=2005|pages=94–95}}</ref> The bill was shared with [[Elf Power]], and the audience was made up almost completely of friends and bandmates. Playing solo and acoustic, Mangum opened the set with what was to be the only post-''Aeroplane'' composition to be performed in public, "[[Little Birds (song)|Little Birds]]", a song about a boy whose body becomes filled with miniature birds that protect him from his murderous father.<ref name="Cooper_pp94-95"/> Mangum finished the rest of the evening with most of the ''Aeroplane'' songs, encouraging the audience to sing along in substitute for the horn parts. For the last several songs, Scott Spillane took his trumpet in to an adjacent room and played his parts through the wall.<ref name="Cooper_pp94-95"/> A recording of the show circulated on the internet, but it has never been officially released, most likely due to the poor quality of the recording. |
|||
Mangum played another show on December 31, 1998, at which he performed the songs "Oh Sister", "Engine", and "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea", joined by Koster and Spillane. |
|||
===Hiatus=== |
|||
During the hiatus, some of the members have been occasionally active with one another in other projects. Mangum contributed vocals to the song "I Have Been Floated" on The Olivia Tremor Control's 2nd album, [[Black Foliage: Animation Music Volume One]]. When asked in an interview if he intends to write another album, Mangum said, "I don't know. It would be nice, but sometimes I kind of doubt it."<ref>{{cite web|last=Fierman|first=Marci|date=February 1, 2002|url=http://pitchfork.com/features/interviews/5847-neutral-milk-hotel/|title=Interview: Neutral Milk Hotel|work=[[Pitchfork Media]]|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> There were plans to release a rarities album on [[Orange Twin Records]]; its cancellation was subsequently announced in 2005 on Orange Twin's website, which stated that Mangum decided against the project. |
|||
There has, however, been some activity since ''Aeroplane''. First, Orange Twin re-released ''[[Everything Is (EP)|Everything Is]]'', complete with extra bonus tracks, as well as ''[[Live at Jittery Joe's]]'', a live recording by filmmaker [[Lance Bangs]] of a show Mangum played in a coffee house in [[Music of Athens, Georgia|Athens, Georgia]] in 1997. The ''[[Major Organ and the Adding Machine]]'' album, a rather secretive project released by Orange Twin in 2001 and consisting mainly of experimental musical collage, features Mangum, along with Julian Koster, [[of Montreal]]'s [[Kevin Barnes]], [[Elf Power]]'s Andrew Reiger and the [[Olivia Tremor Control]] and [[Circulatory System]]'s [[Will Cullen Hart]] and [[Eric Harris (musician)|Eric Harris]]. There was also the release of ''[[Orange Twin Field Works: Volume I]]'', Mangum's field recording of a [[Bulgarian music|Bulgarian]] folk festival, also on Orange Twin in 2001. He also played drums on the first Circulatory System album. |
|||
Since the breakup of Neutral Milk Hotel, Mangum has appeared live very infrequently, including once, at the Kings Arms pub in [[Auckland]], [[New Zealand]], at the request of the [[Tall Dwarfs]]'s [[Chris Knox]]. The band was billed as the ''World of Wild Beards Incorporated'', although when he explained this bizarre name during the course of the show, Mangum gave a small speech about an obscure, seemingly fictional company of the early 20th century named "Walking Wall of Beards Incorporated". The show consisted of performances by Mangum, [[Laura Carter (musician)|Laura Carter]], and Chris Knox. Mangum played 13 songs, about half of them from ''Aeroplane'', and covered [[Phil Spector]]'s "I Love How You Love Me" and [[John Lennon]]'s "Mother", with Chris Knox joining him on the latter. A recording of the show exists,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.opticalatlas.com/2006/03/jeff-mangums-world-of-wild-beards.html|title=Jeff Mangum's World of Wild Beards|work=Optical Atlas}}{{dead link|date=July 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://rateyourmusic.com/release/unauth/neutral_milk_hotel/world_of_wild_beards_incorporated/|title=World of Wild Beards Incorporated|work=[[Rate Your Music]]|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> but it has never been officially released. |
|||
Mangum has also made occasional appearances with Elf Power and [[The Instruments]], and came onstage at the first of the Olivia Tremor Control's New York shows on their 2005 reunion tours, to sing briefly. |
|||
The other members are all still releasing material: Julian Koster as [[The Music Tapes]], Scott Spillane as [[The Gerbils]] and [[Jeremy Barnes]] as [[A Hawk and a Hacksaw]], [[Bablicon]] and Marta Tennae. |
|||
In 2005, ''[[In the Aeroplane Over the Sea]]'' was re-released by [[Domino Records]] in the UK, in a sleeve featuring praise from, among others, [[Franz Ferdinand (band)|Franz Ferdinand]] and [[Arcade Fire]], bands influenced by NMH. Mangum has also done a few small art projects—following a charity auction on [[eBay]] of an acoustic guitar decorated by Mangum himself, more guitars hand-decorated by Mangum were sold via Orange Twin Records for $900 apiece. Also, a number of his original drawings, this time costing only $10 each, were sold via Neutral Milk Hotel's website. |
|||
In 2006, a message was posted on the [[Elephant 6]] message board, purportedly from Mangum, suggesting that he would record and tour again, though it was unclear if it would be under the Neutral Milk Hotel moniker. It soon caused an enormous stir within the indie community, and news of the message appeared in ''[[Rolling Stone]]'', [[Pitchfork Media]], and ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]''. However, it was eventually discredited by [[Robert Schneider]], of [[The Apples in Stereo]], a close friend of Mangum's. The perpetrator of the hoax is still unknown.<ref>{{cite web|first=Phillips|last=Amy|date=June 28, 2006|url=http://pitchforkmedia.com/page/news/37148-bupdateb-jeff-mangum-returns|title=Update: Jeff Mangum Returns?|work=[[Pitchfork Media]]|archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20090113184830/http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/37148-update-jeff-mangum-returns|archivedate=January 13, 2009|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> |

In October 2008, Mangum made appearances during the Elephant 6 Holiday Surprise Tour.<ref>{{cite web|last=Thompson|first=Paul|date=September 3, 2008|url=http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/145168-elephant-6-crew-to-embark-on-holiday-surprise-tour|title=Elephant 6 Crew to Embark on "Holiday Surprise Tour"|work=[[Pitchfork Media]]|archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20081219161915/http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/145168-elephant-6-crew-to-embark-on-holiday-surprise-tour|archivedate=December 19, 2008|accessdate=October 13, 2008}}</ref> He played "Engine" (The "Holland, 1945" B-side) with Julian Koster at the Pittsburgh, Columbus, Chicago, Bloomington and Lexington concerts.<ref>[http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/download/146625-video-jeff-mangum-and-julian-koster-engine-live-in-pittsburgh-updated-with-better-video]{{dead link|date=June 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Winistorfer|first=Andrew|date=October 20, 2008|url=http://www.prefixmag.com/media/jeff-mangum/engine-live-in-columbus-video/22453/|title=Jeff Mangum: Engine (Live in Columbus) (Video)|work=PrefixMag.com|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> |

===Return to live performances=== |
|||
On May 6, 2010, Mangum played a 5-song acoustic set at the Le Poisson Rouge in Manhattan at a benefit concert for his friend Chris Knox who was undergoing health issues at the time. Despite a message from the concert managers that the show was a one time benefit for Knox and not the restart of Mangum's musical career, the show sparked rumors that Mangum would begin recording and touring again. On December 4, 2010, Mangum played a surprise 10-song set of Neutral Milk Hotel songs in a Bushwick, Brooklyn loft building known as The Schoolhouse to a crowd of only 100 invited guests.<ref>{{cite web|last=Leichtung|first=Ric|date=December 5, 2010|url=http://www.internationaltapes.com/reviews/jeff-mangum-live-at-the-schoolhouse/|title=Jeff Mangum Live at The Schoolhouse|work=International Tapes|accessdate=July 15, 2012}}</ref> |
