Book Reviews of Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea (33 1/3)
Book Review: A Nice, Balanced Read
Summary: 4 Stars
I read Aeroplane right before I read U2's Achtung Baby: Meditations on Love in the Shadow of the Fall (33 1/3), both albums contain Christian themes and both 33 1/3 writers chose to tackle them differently. Catanzarite (Achtung's author) took an album that references Christian themes and centered his essay around it, weaving slight references about album production into a study of the Bible's definition of "love." Aeroplane has more overt Christian themes and the writer spent far less time analyzing them. Cooper instead weaved a historical account of Neutral Milk from Mangum's days as a youngster till his last public performance. Both books have their moments, and both books took on an artists pretentiousness in different ways. Catanzarite embraced the themes and disregarded the artist, whereas Cooper discussed how the themes were threaded into the artist's DNA.
