Major Organ And the Adding Machine

From last.fm:

"Major Organ and the Adding Machine was originally thought to be a side-project of Jeff Mangum and Julian Koster (Neutral Milk Hotel).

But the project has grown to include the Elephant Six Orchestra and many others. In March 2001, a CD entitled [b]Major Organ and the Adding Machine was released on Orange Twin Records.

While the mysterious Major Organ is the apparent leader of this project, some of the contributors were Kevin Barnes (Of Montreal), Jeff Mangum (Neutral Milk Hotel), Julian Koster (Music Tapes, Neutral Milk Hotel), Eric Harris (Olivia Tremor Control), Will Cullen Hart (The Circulatory System, The Olivia Tremor Control), Andrew Rieger (Elf Power)."


Basically the who's-who of the Elephant 6 collective, the album is a collection of pyschedelic jams, weird effects, samples and noises but in the midst of all that is a pop gem waiting to explode. A movie is set to be released this year (Jeff Mangum in a lobster suit!)
