Yat-Kha. And Reality Film
When these Tuvans play live in your neighbourhood, go.
I first saw them live performing an improvised soundtrack to the Russian silent classic Storm Over Asia, which I'm still wishing for them to release a recording of. But last night, performing their trademark rock/throatsinging mixture in an intimate venue, this extremely charismatic band rocked.
Side note: I was intrigued to discover that they're neighbours, in a manner of speaking, on uklinux :)
Reality Film, which organised Storm Over Asia, was also responsible for another unforgettable London concert this year (a good year so far), Acid Mothers Temple doing Legend Of The Overfiend.

I second that motion.
Francois recommended I see Yat-Kha when they were last in my town. It was a tear jerking experience.
