What are some good bands/albums that have descriptive lyrics? With even my favorites, I have a hard time with the imagery depicted by the lyrics. It's almost dream-like; just a stream of images with no real cohesion or unifying concept.

But, with Spiderland, it's like I'm fucking there.

I AM at the top of a roller-coaster with Madame Zeroni in a cool, autumn while gazing at the attractions dotting the landscape with the smell the roasted nuts wafting around me.

I AM gripped with social anxiety, battling my apprehension to mingle with my peers but also longing for the comforts of seclusion and the sweet embrace of death.

(I'm aware of the esoteric qualities of these songs, but a surface level observation evokes extremely vivid imagery.)

Any other groups out there that have mastered lyricism, /mu/?

Laughing Stock's lyrics are perfect. And the ending is the exact opposite of Spiderland, where a guy begs for forgiveness and gets denied. In Laughing Stock he gets forgiven and blessed. I feel like I'm there with the guy trying desperately trying to have my sins absolved.

Why do those two unrelated albums compliment each other so well?

Very different type of music, but Joanna Newsome's lyrics are like you describe, extremely vivid and descriptive
