Neutral Milk Hotel For Everyone

With just days to go before the launch of Neutral Milk Hotel’s big comeback tour, the indie rock band is continuing to add stops to its world trek. The group now has more than 50 gigs on its schedule including a handful of new dates in Europe.

Fronted by founder and singer/songwriter/guitarist Jeff Mangum, the acclaimed band will make its grand return to the stage Oct. 11 at Baltimore’s 2640 Space for its first tour since its split in 1999.

In addition to adding the European shows, Neutral Milk’s announcements this week include rescheduling its Australian dates with M. Ward and Superchunk.
