Eric's Trip (Sonic Youth)
And now that I've started this thread, I'm drawing a blank on any more. Looks like somebody has a case of the "mondays".

Posted - 06/25/2006 : 21:09:23 Well, sort of close.
The John Vanderslice album Mass Suicide Occult Figurines is lifted from a Neutral Milk Hotel lyric from the song Song Against Sex.

When I have more time, I'll stick a song on here for you. They are only about 17.
I am not sure if it is intentional or not. They certainly sound nothing like Talking Heads.

Radiohead, after a Talking Heads song right?
Yep, from True Stories. Though it has a space on the album; 'Radio Head'. [/fanboy]
Pretty Girls Make Graves? I'm sure I read they denied it was a Smiths reference. I don't see how they can, though.
I think there's a band in Scotland called Debaser also.
