    *good old boys* by randy newman, *nebraska* by bruce springsteen, *de la soul is dead*, *whitechocolatespaceegg* by liz phair, *the road to ensenada* by lyle lovett, *the infamous* by mobb deep -- records that explicitly address or describe a particular place. allen ravenstine from pere ubu had a huge influence on the way tris plays his synthesizers.
