    Neutral Milk Hotel? what's their style?

    I'm not sure how to classify their style. Many people jate the singer's voice. I don't mind it and i love the lyrics. In an Areoplane over the sea was good on my first listen but after 10 listens i really saw something great in it. Love that album.

    Off the top of my head:

    Pink Floyd- Animals
    Miles Davis- Kind of blue
    Wilco- Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
    Pearl Jam- No Code
    Neil Young- On the Beach
    Sigur Ros- ( )
    Flaming Lips- Soft Bulletin
    Bruce Springsteen- Nebraska
    Sonic Youth- Daydream Nation
    Pantera- Vulgar Display of Power

    I am sure later i'll think of other albums that deserve it more. The one that i really think anyone who likes any kind of music should not go their entire life without hearing though is Miles Davis's Kind of Blue. That album has a feeling about it that is majestic.

    7, Oasis - (What's the Story?) Morning Glory
    8, NIN - Pretty Hate Machine

    Oh I know, I just wanted to choose one that I liked and liked even better when he rocked live in concert. Each one his albums has a track that is just out of this world and that album for stands out in more ways than one for me. I had a great date for that show too. :D

    Forever Changes is one of my favourites. I was lucky to see Arthur Lee live once. A bit crackers, but still great.

    Me too Fins, I saw him in Brecon about 3 years back, I was sat in the front row and he was just sensational. An absolute legend, and sadly missed. I got this Forever Changes concert cd from Royal festival hall, and that's pretty cool an'all.
