Title: Don't let the hipsters fool you
Product review: This is the most painfully pretentious pile of dreck ever produced. I know quite a few people who swear that Neutral Milk Hotel are the greatest thing since Oreos, but the off-key singing, overwrought lyrics that try REALLY hard to be deep and touching and the headache inducing lo-fi production make this one of the least impressive widely loved albums. Actually, It's a mystery to me why people like this band so much. I mean... I understand that you have to like some things to be considered hip, but Neutral Milk Hotel cover up talentless bass playing by layering so much fuzz on the bass that there is a low-end buzz through the whole album that makes my teeth hurt. Do yourself a favor, listen to the song "Demented Man" from Warrior on the Edge of Time by Hawkwind. Every Neutral Milk Hotel song is an attempt by a sad hipster to duplicate this rad tune from the 70's.
