I see what you mean a little better now. The Gerogerigegege is THE example then.

From their wiki

Quote:

The Gerogerigegege is known for their releasing records with unusual concepts, such as 1989's Showa (昭和?) released after the death of Hirohito, which bookended a recording of people having sex to "Kimigayo", the Japanese national anthem. A special edition of Showa falsely presented itself as a Ramones bootleg called Britzkrieg '75 (Demo Tracks), with no mention of Gerogerigegege or Showa anywhere on the release.[1] The Night 7″ features a recording of a man defecating into a toilet after the usual "1 2 3 4!!" count. The compilation album Recollections of Primary Masturbation contains 338 songs, including the entirety of Tokyo Anal Dynamite as one track.

There are also some non-musical conceptual releases including Shaking Box Music: You Are the Noise Maker, which consists of 100 blank cassettes in a large metal box. This Is Shaking Box Music Part 2, which is a destroyed copy of the Mother Fellatio EP in a cassette case.[2] Art Is Over consists of a single octopus tentacle housed in a cassette box.
