I think They Might be Giants must fit into this, something like "See the Constellation" or "I'll Be Haunting You" scans as psych-rock to me which they are definitely not as a whole

When I was a kid I heard this weird psychedelic avant-garde violin piece by McKendree Spring on late night radio. I bought the album, only to discover the rest of it was decidedly UN-psychedelic wimpy folk-rock.

I was pleasantly surprised that the 50s Stars Who Tried to Adapt to the Psychedelic 60s video was sincerely appreciative rather than mocking.
