Seriously, I would pay ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY for the entire album In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. Catchy, lyrically challenging, great arrangements - probably the best album of the 90s, definitely in the top 10. Neutral Milk Hotel has been a huge influence on the entire lo-fi indie scene - and some of their descendants are starting to make waves.

Holland 1945 would be one of the awesomest songs on Rock Band.

I'd looooove to see some NMH in rock band, but some songs simply wouldn't work in rock band, like Oh Comely, the drummer and bassist could both go evacuate their bowels while this song is played. Then there's a couple with either no words or not enough to justify putting it in rock band. I'd love to see a pack with some songs from aeroplane, on avery island and some of their demo's (I love the song Sailing Through)

Agreed. This band has some amazing music that can literally touch your soul.

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all 'round the sun
And when we meet on a cloud
I'll be laughing out loud
I'll be laughing with everyone I see
Can't believe how strange it is to be anything at all.

don't get me wrong, i love them and that album; in my top 10 all time....but there are a few songs that just would not work, namely 2 headed boy 1&2 and oh, comely. Just guitar and vocals = not fun for bassist and drummer.

Sorry, when I said "Agreed," I didn't actually mean that whole album. But definitely the applicable Rock Band-friendly tracks.

In the Aeroplane Over the Sea
Holland 1945

Your willing to pay the artist for the master recording?
