I'm going with 'jumping fences' and 'holiday surprise 1,2,3' by The Olivia Tremor Control...

whilst I conede that the best band is obviously NMH, and the best album is obviously in the aeroplane, the songs by otc just seem to stand better alone.

And to be honest, 'dusk at cubist castle' is chasing on the heels of 'aeroplane...' anyway!! If it wasn't for the irritating ten minutes of dripping noise half way through the record... I'm all for noise, but even the mars volta kept the dripping sounds on comatorium to 2 minutes!!!

Maybe some Of Montreal tickles your fancy? Perhaps Apples in Stereo? Elf Power? The many others.....?
