20 celebrities that disappeared after one big hit

8) Jeff Mangum

Trending

A mysterious mastermind, Neutral Milk Hotel's Jeff Mangum rose to cult status with the folk-psych-rock-lo-fi-indie sounds on his 1998 album In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, which is still deeply emotional and rather unique. Having achieved the already mentioned critical success, Mangum was a point of reference for '90s indie music; however, he remained absent for more than ten years.

It is interesting that, during the 2010s, Mangum surprised many with his return, performing solo and revisiting his groundbreaking work. Even though he keeps away from the public eye, the music of Mangum continues to influence artists through successive generations, and there remains an enduring, passionate fan base for his work.
