Neutral Milk Hotel- King Of Carrot Flowers Pt 1 (Live)

[blizzley]

I'm 14, my English teacher told me to go check these guys out after I asked about bands like The Decemberists, which he coincidentally also introduced me too.

[TheSuperFishNemo]

the libertines reunited, the stone roses are reuniting, please wont you NMH? <3

[imfeelingepic]

When this happened, i was like 2 and a half years old. EXACLY

[NotBogSaget]

I would sell the souls of my unborn children just to have Jeff sing this on front of me. It's unfair that I started liking NMH like, ten years after they stopped playing.

[MsUnreliable]

oh jeff feel free to come play live for me anytime ;)

[thewhimsicalwish]

@martyrdomcausespanic yeah i was 3 so that's annoying

[mopman1337]

@bag04u they somehow do, if you don't see it i am mostly bummed for you son.

[TheRevengeancer]

@bag04u but it's great guitar, great vocals, and great drumming

is it perfect? no, but it's the imperfections that make it so amazing

[haj057]

saw them at the georgia theatre great show

[fakeplasticsheep11]

I would do terrible, disgusting things to see jeff mangum on his tour this fall... If you have a ticket to one of his sold out shows, I may bludgeon you to death for it. just an early warning.

[fan1odw]

I love Neutral Milk Hotel, but if anyone in my bloody school listened to it they'd say it was rubbish. I'm in year eight, and I'm surrounded by people with AWFUL taste. King of Carrot Flowers is awesome; In The Aeroplane over the Sea is the best album I've ever listened to.

[gotoAndFLASH]

love the zanzithophone at the start

[terresinconnues]

I was fetus when I first heard this band. I was doing lazy back-flips in the womb.

[freeairplaneride1]

heard them when i was like almost 13, now i'm an 8 year devoted fan! NMH has made my life better!

[martyrdomcausespanic]

@Court917 jesus when were you born?

[Court917]

i wish i was alive when this happened.

[GradeSchoolRecords]

i was -3 when this happened SO ANNOYED!!!

[martyrdomcausespanic]

@GradeSchoolRecords you're only 11??? Holy crap. I thought I was young.

[GradeSchoolRecords]

@martyrdomcausespanic yeah, but ive now realized that age doesn't matter, as long as you respect music like this, and are creative, it doesn't matter. my band (we are in 5th grade) are playing a show tonight with bands from the local highschool, but that just means that we started a little earlier, im not better than anyone else that likes e6 music.

[adamdonovan88]

Amazing

[SleeperFactory5]

I have so much love for this song.

[vanarbulaxer]

:O I didn't know NHM were around Athens, Georgie. What is it with the place and generating amazing musicians?

Also, disappointed that I was 5, but happy that the internet allowed me to discover this stuff.

[georgykicksass]

I was three and I'm russian. Cool yeah ? Russian that loves NMH a lot. Really weird band, on the one hand they're very underground, but at the same time are very popular.

[ChangetheMusicTv]

Fuck... I hate being young. I wish I could have been around to see these guys, among other greats live. Now all we have is shitty gaga and meaningless alt rock.

[johnmorisi8]

@ChangetheMusicTv

neutral milk hotel is indie, and they were indie at the time. if you look deep you may find something you like. Search david dondero, neva dinova, bright eyes, okkervil river, m. ward, monsters of folk, right away great captain, uglu casonova. Theyre not exactly NMH but they're still damn good and still around. There are also plenty others. Indie-folk/alt-folk didn't die when Mangum stopped writing music, there's still plenty of it to be found... just search.

[TheOdderOne]

@johnmorisi8 I agree. This isn't so removed from "our time," this was hardly a decade ago. It's actually a very exciting musical time if you know where or how to look for good music. Give locals a chance, check every band who sends you a friend invite here, look for artists on last.fm. It's out there and it's GREAT stuff. People who lament the old times are not looking hard enough.

[TheOdderOne]

@johnmorisi8 I'm glad you mention upstate New York...I'm not from there but I go to school near Albany and there is a surprisingly decent indie scene there. I've been to NP once or twice but that doesn't surprise me, it seems like a good creative place. This is exactly what I mean by going local; usually the best stuff is the stuff yo never see making the big time. Daytrotter is a great resource too. There's no excuse for thinking we have a lack of good music these days, it's just lazy.

[iwikepie]

damn.i wanna be at a fucking NMH house show.

[misterbuckethead]

the first couple lines are about masturbation

[Clerks0]

It fucking hurts that i will never hear them live..

[93cantthinkofaname]

It is quite irritating that ill probably never get to see this band live. I was only 5 when "in the aeroplane..." was released...

[AlecPeytonMusic]

I was three months old when this happened. Not good.

[3024938]

@thomasistheshiz So sad since they are a Louosoama band. Anyway, I'm 18 myself and this is ahnds down my favorite band.

[comeonboeltsy]

Dammit, I was three... I highly doubt I could've appreciated this then... disco was more my thing... my, how times have changed.

[Swiftlygothedays]

Stop complaining and built a time machine! Dead serious. I really wanna see these shows live, like back in the 90's. (And I know that you all have the same wish.)

[weamdebest]

It's cool that so many young kids are getting into Neutral Milk hotel. Coming from someone who is 17, in my area most people my age never heard of them

[locomotive147]

@weamdebest Hipster Victory!

[GradeSchoolRecords]

@weamdebest cool im 10 and i know like three people my age who like them

[PrestonDowMusic]

@GradeSchoolRecords 10....be careful on the internet. it will defecate upon your innocence.

[WaldoGrapelliOHare]

This has not enough views for my liking.

[Beck436]

I hear a Casio.

[martyrdomcausespanic]

I hate that I was 7 when this happened.
