Neutral Milk Hotel are fantastic. As this song attests.
The new Beulah record is pretty damn good, too.

Holland, 1945

The only girl I've ever loved
Was born with roses in her eyes
But then they buried her alive One evening 1945
With just her sister at her side And only weeks before the guns All came and rained on everyone Now she's a little boy in Spain Playing pianos filled with flames

On empty rings around the sun
All sing to say my dream has come

But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on

And now we ride the circus wheel
With your dark brother wrapped in white
Says it was good to be alive
But now he rides a comet's flame And won't be coming back again
The Earth looks better from a star
That's right above from where you are He didn't mean to make you cry With sparks that ring and bullets fly On empty rings around your heart

The world just screams and falls apart But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on

And here's where your mother sleeps
And here is the room where your brothers were born
Indentions in the sheets Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
And it's so sad to see the world agree That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes
