META: ITT, we compare legendary board threads to music

The integer thread is basically the love-child of John Cage's 4'33" and Basinski's The Disintegration Loops. The formalism of its structure is only matched by brutalism of its drone. A masterpiece.
What other songs or artists encapsulate our HoF threads?

No, sorry, I wasn’t stealing your schtick: I was saying the Ween thread is the Board equivalent of the musical group Yellowcard.

The grocery store thread isn’t so much a thread or a song as it is a whole mood born out of trauma and static.
But if one is going to follow the threads instructions — as you dutifully did —
Come on, Eileen captures that pretty well.
