The Swell Season covers Neutral Milk Hotel
I've been obsessed with the majesty that is Neutral Milk Hotel's mid-90s indie rock bible In the Aeroplane Over the Sea since it was first shown to be way back in high school. And I know I'm not alone- anyone who hears it can't deny the crushing passion and insanely emotive songs and performance.
Which is why it's just so perfect that The Swell Season, a band build on the same ideals of pure passion in its songwriting and execution, would chose to cover one of the standout tunes from that record for this AV Club project. The sheer existence of this song makes the world a slightly better place.
