RE: (TV) OT: Please explain to me the appeal of Jeff Mangum

It's really pretty great.  Went into the store and bought the hype.

It's a great album.  They put on gloves when they presented it to me.

It's not Arcade Fire or anything lesser.  But it's still pretty great.  I
enjoy listening to it.

Obviously the neuroses add to the mythology.  It does not disappoint.

Now when everyone said you have to listen to Funeral.  HOLY SHIT.  That
changed my world.

I don't get Jeff Mangum, I don't like Neutral Milk Hotel - I used to have
their opus album and I listened to it several times - and it has never added
up to anything to me. I like avant garde stuff: Beefheart, Fripp, Gang of
Four - Television - but I just don't hear anything special in Jeff Mangum .
Please educate me - tell me where I'm wrong - gently - because I suspect
something is there - but I don't hear it.
