"Theresa's Sound World" by Sonic Youth is the first to come to mind. The whole of Daydream Nation could probably count, honestly.
"Everything in its Right Place" by Radiohead (edit: idiot autocorrect) is another one I've often taken an audio bath in. Much of that album works too. I just hate the final song.
So is shit in town just crap? I honestly wouldn't be surprised, but I was hoping there might be something closer in.
Both of those look pretty awesome, though. Thanks for the recommendations.
