My favorite thing about State Songs is the track order. My wife if from Maine and I'm from Oregon, and our home tracks are next to each other.

Cool. Admittedly, I’m a bit mad about the two songs representing where I’m from. There’s no “Arizona”, and “Nevada” is not not not so great.
I haven't listened in ages, and to be honest I never loved the album. (I'm the rare person who likes Flansburgh's style over Linell's.)
But I'll give it a couple of listens tomorrow at work and come back with a better answer.
I'd say I'm generally neutral between Flans and Linnell. I might say that Linnell's songs tend to be of consistent quality, but when Flans puts out a good song, it's a great song. Some songs are just better with Flans's helium voice.
Edit: To clarify, I like the experimentalism of Flans's stuff. I find the band needs a balance of both.
I do enjoy both of Linnell's albums/EPs a lot, though. I haven't listened to much of Flansburgh's non-TMBG stuff like Monopuff.
