“A lo-fi indie folk masterpiece of surreal, emotionally devastating beauty.”
“The reissue of Neutral Milk Hotel’s cult classic offers another opportunity to measure its reach and influence. Jeff Mangum’s masterpiece mixes hushed folk, explosive brass, and unforgettable vocals that touch on pain, loss, memory, and hope.”
“Those two great overgrown gardens of American mainstream pop, the Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds and Fleetwood Mac’s Tusk, have had oddly different effects on their admirers.

“À primeira ouvida desavisada é um disco estranho, distorcido demais mas depois de respirar e entender que é ~diferente~ consegui pegar a vibe.

Vibe bar do braga total Faixa favorita the fool Apesar de achar a voz do mano mt mt legal, essa foi minha favorita e não tem voz. Menção tbm pra untitled que é a música com menos play do disco de forma errada. Nota 8 de 10 Queria dar 7, mas dei 8 pq eu ouviria de novo pela interessância e não pq amei muito.”
“If I could give negative numbers I would this album is an atrocity to the art of music this made me physically cringe anyone who thinks this is a “10/10” is a sheep and is following the crowd open ur eyes this is a dumpster fire in a minefield this is terrible Two Headed Boy is one of the creepiest songs ever and Oh Comely shouldn’t be out for the public this album needs to be taken down i genuinely lost intelligence and brain cells bc of this piece of crap”
“The songs were creepy and there was only one good part which was just a transition from “Two-Headed Boy” to “The Fool” and “The fool” and “untitled” don’t have lyrics and the instrumentals are weird.”
“I know all music snobs will love this and I happily will take this title cause I will gladly yell the lyrics in the early morning to that raw sound”
“I feel like everyone and their mother loves this album and there’s not much more that I can say that hasn’t already been said”
“Very raw album with a melodic theme and great instrumentals a bit overrated but still good”
“I might give too many 10s but idk how this could be anything else”
