I love Walter Sickert and the Army of Broken Toys - their instrumentation gives them a really rich and unusual sound, and I'm quite fond of the way Walter sounds like a demented combination of Nick Cave and Colin Meloy (of The Decemberists, whom I also love). I particularly like their songs "Viktagraph", "Planet Killer", and "Pale Horse". I also think their version of "Sam Hall" is great - it's got a klezmer feel.
