Notes Are Shattered: Neutral Milk Hotel - Demos, Bootlegs, and Rarities

Neutral Milk Hotel - Demos, Bootlegs, and Rarities

This is my favorite band of all time. Here are all the bootlegs, early cassette demos, and rare tracks that I have. I won't post tracklists for anything; instead, check The Kingdom of Carrot Flowers, and specifically, the discography and bootography for tracklists and information for the demos, and setlists and recording quality info for the bootlegs. I know there are a lot of bootlegs, so if you're trying to figure out what to get, I'd suggest the King's Arms show from 2001 (most recent Mangum performance, amazing sound quality), the Bottom of the Hill show from 1998 (decent sound quality, great set list, quite a few non-album tracks), the XFM session (good sound quality, interesting interview with Mangum), at the show at Chris Bilheimer's birthday party (only post-Aeroplane song in circulation, and it's one of Mangum's best songs).

The B-Sides download has tracks off four out of print compilations, and includes the untitled track from Ptolemaic Terrascope #21, a great-sounding version of Bucket from Periscope: Another Yoyo Compilation (sounds like a cleaned up version of Bucket (Organ Version)), Up and Over We Go from The Amazing Phantom Third Channel (a cleaned-up version of the one on Invent Yourself a Shortcake, probably), and Invent Yourself a Shortcake, which has nothing to do with the demo tape of the same name, and is from Champagne Dance Party.

Demos/Rarities:
1991 - Invent Yourself a Shortcake
1992 - Beauty
1993 - Hype City Soundtrack
1998 - Holland, 1945/Engine 7"
???? - The Unknown Demo
???? - The Other Unknown Demo
???? - Shannon's Monroe House Demos
???? - Misc. B-Sides

Does anyone know how / where to get MP3's of these? Because you have a few concerts I can't find anywhere else, and I would really like them, but my Itunes, and consequently, my Ipod does not accept ZIP files. Any help?

Hey, I downloaded the Aeroplane album someone had re-mixed from here, but can't find it here anymore. Could you possibly re-up?

poor thing. you've probably given up by now, or maybe figured it out on your own, but you need to download some kind of program (i use WinRAR) to unpack the zip files and convert them into mp3 format.

also, i can't believe i found all of these. thanks SO much for sharing all of them.

Thanks for this wonderful post! I keep coming back to this since I first read Neutral Milk Hotel's 33 1/3 book about 1 year ago.

Also, WinRar is cool but Alzip works soooo much better. Check it out-it's cute and free!

Whenever we evaluate the concept of the phrase adore, with terms of an intimate connection together with another, although as being a sensing that may be engendered when you've got miltchmonkey an even better marriage yourself as well , and even as being a experience of increased unity with your loved ones as well as humankind , it gets much more superior that all any individual is seeking in your everyday living will be enjoy.

What you said was very logical. However, what about this?
suppose you composed a catchier post title?
I ain't saying your content isn't good, however what if you added a title to maybe grab a person's attention? I mean "Neutral Milk Hotel - Demos, Bootlegs, and Rarities" is a little vanilla. You should glance at Yahoo's home page and note how they
create article headlines to grab viewers to click.

You might add a related video or a picture or two to get people excited about what you've written. In my opinion, it might bring your posts a little livelier.

I have been browsing online more than 3 hours today,

In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did,
the web will be much more useful than ever before.

Hi Ben - do you still like NMH? I wonder if you can help me? This is my family fiends favourite band and she mentioned that she has lost all of her Bootlegs and demos through file corruption and was sad that she would never have them again. For an Xmas present I was trying to find all the tracks again for her. It seems like you had a fair few. I wonder if you can assist a fellow fan?
