Those bargain-bucket finds are often the sweetest.
I like 
, reminds me of Jah Wobble in places. I'm definitely going to check them out. 
This Bretonesque Celticification is by Anglo-French honkers Blowzabella. I used to have these guys on a cassette tape I brought at a gig - but it went the way of such things, being chewed up by the car stereo one day
Cop the heavy-metal hurdy-gurdy playing!

Someone posted about the tuvan throat singers in the What's playing thread, and I instantly fell in love with it.

That was me. If you like it you might want to check out the film Genghis Blues, a documentary about blind US Blues singer Paul Pena's trip to Tuva to take part in their national singing competition.

Couldn't find the studio version of this, which is mindbogglingly good, and would have been nice for showcasing the sound but they do a fair job of it live.
