Out of the ordinary, we have Neutral Milk Hotel. Their songs Holland 1945 and In the Aeroplane Over the Sea snagged me, and I ended up loving the whole album. Both songs, and the whole album honestly, are so strange. This album is form the late 90s, so it was quite the find for me to stumble upon. Like most groups I find, I heard them on my Bastille iTunes radio station ages ago. Even though it so weird, I really love the sound of this type of music, whatever 'type' it is. The subject matter is up to individual interpretation (at least that's how I take the majority of the songs) and the sounds are so smooth and chill. The singer's voice isn't what is generally 'good sounding', but I love the way all the weirdness of the music fits together. Neutral Milk Hotel definitely isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it's worth a listen.
I've somewhat learned a few of the songs off of the album on ukulele, so that's pretty great.

Like in the last vinyl post (and every upcoming record post) here is a quick list of songs that I like with a quick lil description. The album is called "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea".
- Holland 1945~ DRUMS, trumpets, and really nice vocals; probably one of the least weird songs
- Two-Headed Boy~ I really love his voice in this song but some parts are loud, guitarrrr
- In the Aeroplane Over the Sea~ first song I've heard by them, and I still love it alot; again, not really weird (in relativity to the album)
