Awesome cover band Neutral Uke Hotel got the La Blogothèque treatment at NXNE in Toronto this summer.
Neutral Uke is a wrecking power-pop force fronted by Jew-fro Shawn Fogel (Golden Bloom, The Zambonis). Just look at his fro. A young, devilishly good looking Anthony Weiner can’t even compare to hair of such massive proportions.
For a limited time only, this fro includes the greatest cover band of the greatest hipster album of all time! Neutral Milk Hotel is a flawless, precious gem that should be kept at MoMa or the Lourve or whatever garbage-dump people keep priceless shit at these days.
The Duckman was able to see Neutral Uke live in Philly recently. He used words like “phenomenal, spiritual, Uke-y, bulbous, and photo-phosphorescent”. Whatever that means!
Shawn Fogel, Michael Epstein, and Josh Cohen are “the shit”. Hands down.
Ed note: pretty sure Matt and Andrew are also the shit, but never got to meet them

I just wanted to comment to note that everything in this article is correct.
