I'll try so...
Ireland: Sultans of Ping - Where's Me Jumper? (Can change a lot but this is always up there, especially lately)
Northern Ireland: Van Morrison - Astral Weeks (ASIWYFA and Stiff Little Fingers both have great stuff too, but lately its Astral Weeks)
England: Too tough, lately maybe something by The Fall, What You Need possibly.
Scotland: Probably Expectations by Belle & Seb or 1969 by Boards of Canada, (Or any other Belle and Seb track)
Wales: Manic Street Preachers - Die In The Summertime
France: Something by Serge Gainsbourg anyway, tough to pick one though
Germany: Kreaftwerk: Europe Endless or Hall of Mirrors
Belize: Andy Palacio & The Garifuna Collective - Watina
Australia: The Avalanches (Everything they did, but Close to You in particular)
Myanmar: Than Shin Ley Ye Khan by Saing Sai
Bolivia: Ukamau - Patamanta
USA: Minutemen - History Lesson, Part 2
Canada: Neil Young - For the Turnstile
This is harder than I expected... _________________

A big yes to ASIWYFA. For me, it would probably be one of Search:Party:Animal or Beautifuluniversemasterchampion, but all the songs on Gangs are equally incredible, in their own ways.

I probably prefer their debut, such a great album and it's high up my decade charts, every track is immense, all 3 albums are really good though. _________________
