Track Description:
The second Elephant 6 associated band, and another member of Neutral Milk Hotel (Scott Spillane, if you wanted to know). Maybe not the greatest band in the world, but they're so catchy and earnest. Love it.

Track 0 from Hype City Soundtrack
Length: 00:04:01
Year: 0000
Track Description:
I love Neutral Milk Hotel, and I try to fit them in as much as possible. This is a little rarer than most of their stuff, coming off one of Jeff Mangum's early tapes, Hype City Soundtrack (the last of three titled tapes, in fact). This version is the same as the Everything Is EP version,except for an extended ending.

Track 0 from Zopilote Machine
Length: 00:02:12
Year: 1995
Track Description:
It's impossible to make a lo-fi list without including the Mountain Goats. I picked this song because I was listening to a lot of Zopilote Machine at the time I made the mix, and this song is one of my favorites. Kind of reminds me of the kind of relationship I was in with a girl at the time, too; both of us holding information and feelings the other wasn't aware of. We just didn't have the cool spy/undercover cop bent.

Track 7 from Horn of Plenty
Length: 00:03:47
Year: 2004
Track Description:
Another great band, this is a very atmospheric piece that starts off pretty creepy but ultimately uplifting...sort of. Kind of pleading, I suppose, but everyone can relate to that.

Compiled this. The Gerbils rule. That lead off track will ultimately make a future mixtape of mine. Guaranteed. Nice tape, evilCarl53.
