Neutral Milk Hotel Drawings Spark Speculation About New Double Album Recently, Netural Milk Hotel’s Jeff Mangum began selling new, original handmade drawings as part of a series called “the book cipher sings.” Mangum has been selling his art on the NMH site since 2005, but the most recent batch has led to increased speculation that new music is on the way. Now, one Redditor who purchased some art has pointed out that the words “double album” are written at the top of a particular piece, along with various question marks. Another drawing says “double awol bombe”–a drawn out spelling of double album. And in yet another picture, there’s “double” at the top, and the letters “L” and “P” upside-down beneath the faces of the main figures. http://pitchfork.com/news/69153-neutral-milk-hotel-drawings-spark-speculation-about-new-double-album/
