  Neutral Milk Hotel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was released by Merge Records in 1996.
Although it met with scant response from the general public when it was released, the recording has continued to gain momentum in indie music circles and has become a cult classic, selling well over 100,000 copies according to Merge Records.
There were plans to release a Neutral Milk Hotel rarities album on the Orange Twin label; however, after an announcement in 2005 on the Orange Twin website claiming that Jeff Mangum had in fact eventually decided against the project, it is unclear if this will ever happen.

 Everything Is (EP) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Everything Is was the first recording mass-released by Neutral Milk Hotel, which at this point was largely still an outlet for the songwriting of Jeff Mangum, instead of a fully formed band.
The recording was originally the second release on the fledgling Seattle label Cher Doll Records in 1994.
The British label Fire Records re-released the record in 1995, on CD and 7", with the 7" retaining the same A and B sides, and the CD version featuring an extra track, Aunt Eggma Blowtorch, a five minute sound collage by Mangum.

Recorded in Spain and in the States with a sixty piece orchestra and a sixty piece choir, Vespertine is a mess of glowing lights erupting from the utmost recesses of Björk's heart.
Domino recordings are well known for issuing records that the average cheesy music lover might consider proper music miscarriages, but that particular listeners with a refined taste for music know are just like rare comets in a boring night sky.

 Elyse - Elyse: Reviews, Track Listing, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com
Elyse is lo-fi, in that the record itself is fairly straightforward musically and that, while the release is on CD, one can hear the crackle and hiss of vinyl, perhaps indicating that this reissue was not remastered from the original.
However, given the tone of the music, the low-level record noises are a positive thing, adding to the overall feel of this record's vintage status.
Perhaps the record's most noteworthy track is "Houses," a gorgeous song about the impossibility of trading places; beautiful on its own, its brilliance is amplified by featured guest Neil Young.
