Ep 109: Josh Tyson Nominates Neutral Milk Hotel's "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea"

What a beautiful face we have found in this place - it's Josh Tyson's face, specifically!

Josh is an actor and sometime musician based in NYC and he has joined us in all his effervescent glory this week to make his case for one of the ultimate nerdy white guy albums: Neutral Milk Hotel's In The Aeroplane Over the Sea. In The Aeroplane..., with its jangling guitar, warbling vocals from lead singer and songwriter Jeff Mangum, and dark, at-times grotesque lyrics, has become a touchstone of late 90s indie rock. Josh spins one hell of a yarn himself, tracing his love for this album all the way back to his first encounters with "oldies" radio and his own attempts at songcraft over the years. We jam on how deceptively simple these songs are and how, at the end of the day, the power will always rest with how personal you can make your art. Oh, and Josh sings a lot in this episode! It's a hoot.

Will his case cut the mustard and earn Mr. Mangum a spot in the pantheon? You know how to find out.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Michael mentions at one point how he believed Neutral Milk Hotel played on the last episode of The Colbert Report, as Stephen Colbert is quite the NMH fan. Turns out they didn't actually play live but "Holland, 1945" did play over the closing credits. So they were there in spirit.
