Definitely Portal. Beyond even my "wall of noise" threshold, these guys are thematically charged. And whatever that thing on the vocalists head is is mesmerizing.

 Portal are technically brilliant. I think the singer is wearing the cabinet to a grandfather clock. So, let's call him Clock Face from now on.

Wow! I have some work to do. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone.
Just one quick comment. I'm looking for WEIRD, meaning something unique. That doesn't mean technically challenging. I have a list for that. Also, humor isn't a factor either. WEIRD means that the artist has come up with some gimmick that no one else has. However if they were first for a popular strange style of music that works. As far as humor goes. Check out my list of humorous music. If you see anything missing from that, please do tell!  Thanks to infinity!  |

Portal was definitely not suggested for their technical aspects. More for their stage presence and themes. When I think of weird it tends to be something that fans of the band's core genre hear/see and say "Ack! What the hell is this?".

The Tiger Lilies. Odd stuff. Odd singer. Overall disconcerting.

I see Captured by Robots on your list. Saw him almost 20 years ago. A one man band for the ages. Watching a guy enslaved, tortured and forced to play their music was definitely unique.

Vocal cover multitracker Dokaka. He does an amazing version of KC's Fracture that doesn't seem to be anywhere online. Fortunately, I have it.
