that is, those that succeed in creating thematic harmony - musical form and lyrical content existing as perfectly complementary.

The Rat
The Walkmen.
Simple lyrics, great playing, great delivery. Utter nerve-shredding mixture of extreme anger and paranoia. Still sounds great, too
search and destroy
by the stooges
no band has ever had a more perfect mission statement
The Wrens
Hopeless
Waterloo Sunset...
It's perfect in everyway imaginable
Everything I've heard so far by boredoms
= Super AE and Vision Creation Newsun - all perfectly put together. Except 'Omega' which is just annoying after a while.
United States of Whatever - Liam Lynch
This is just another "BEST SONG EVAR" thread really.
Spring Hall Convert
by Deerhunter - near perfect psych pop.
There is a song called 'Grey' by a 60's band called 'The Hush' - i always listen to it and think guitar pop cannot be constructed much better, cept maybe 'She Said She Said' by the Beatles
Talking Heads - This Must Be The Place
The version I have, which is live (but this may be the real one off Stop Making Sense) feels perfect. To add to that:
The Smiths - This Charming Man
Radiohead - Idioteque
TV On The Radio - Staring at the Sun
And yeah, The Rat's not far off either.
