One of the biggest cult-favorite indie bands of our time, Neutral Milk Hotel, have been dormant long enough. After frontman Jeff Mangum has toured here and there for years as a solo outfit, Pitchfork reports that the whole band will reunite for a tour, 15 years after their last show together. Only a few dates have been announced, but apparently, there are “more to come.” The reunion tour announcement was accompanied by the following (strange) announcement on the band’s website:

“and of water course womb rume is a wandering the welkin woman whose fune caul is all umbilical cord code that comes equipped with read volve vît curtains that čun seel my văl én tich radio reason in remembrance of mademoiselle gabrielle and her wone tym pad lock of burd language as it borders on twin tolk the wolk king wall of woolpack pigeons pointing to the fly blind readers riddle and his rian boh”
