Oingo Boingo. I've posted a song from them earlier. They basically released 80s style dance tunes with really unique lyrics and a unique sounding singer. You've probably heard his voice before. Oingo Boingo's lead singer, Danny Elfman, would end up becoming very close friends with Tim Burton and has done the soundtracks to nearly all of the movies he has directed. You've probably also HEARD him sing before, as he provided the voice to Jack Skellington in "The Nightmare Before Christmas"
The Psychedelic Furs were a really neat sounding group from the 80s (ok, I've been on an 80s pitch lately). Unique sounding singer also.
Talk Talk. Listen to their entire career. Over 5 albums, they went for sensible pop music to acoustic music to beautiful orchestral arrangements. Take a listen. (And yet again, more 80s with a one of a kind singer)
I really hope there was something you enjoyed in that selection, Hex! I just pulled some stuff out at kinda random.
