A few suggestions to start us off:

Good shout
Man on the Moon > Nightswimming > Find the River
Chores > For Rev Green > Fireworks
Couple of personal faves.
There’s quite a few candidates on those records. How about My Death/The Big Hurt/Such a Small Love from Scott? Or Copenhagen/Rosemary/Big Louise from Scott 3?
First thing that comes to mind and It could be said it’s because it stands so clearly above the rest of the album but
Moderat - S/T - A New Error/Rusty Nails/Seamonkey.
I was always quite a big fan of the first 3 of Menomena’s Friend and Foe too.
Muscle n Flo/The Pelican/Wet And Rusting
I need to think about this more though…
Soma/Geek USA/Mayonaise (Siamese dream)
Welcome To New York/Blank Space/Style
For an R.E.M. one you can’t beat the first three tracks of Reckoning - Harborcoat/7 Chinese Bros/So. Central Rain.
Thanks for letting me know.

One More Time/Aerodynamic/Digital Love (Daft Punk - Discovery)
