I'll throw out Clem Snide who have been around since 1991 although really it's mostly one guy. Technically Alt Country though I don't really think of them as that. Hard to describe. Musically very catchy with very good musicianship and a lot of attention to the arrangements. Lyrically very sarcastic and caustic with dark humor throughout. The go to album is:
Moment in the Sun was a minor hit though few people realize that it is a parody of a Jewel song. In that context it is funny as hell as are a lot of their songs. Moment in the Sun
Your Favorite Music is also very good and Meat of Life is solid.
Compilation album - not sure if this is what you have in mind but
It was produced by Emmylou Harris and has some very solid performances by a variety of bands from the Pretenders to Wilco to Elvis Costello to The Cowboy Junkies.
And I agree with Kafka - The Silos "Cuba" is very good.

Guts - Freedom. This album is just really solid from start to finish. He is french, and just one guy, which probably is why no one has ever heard of him. Everyone i have introduced him too has loved him.
Nigeria Special: Nigerian funk from 197-76. In the 70s, Lagos exploded with Funk and there was some incredible music created in this time, not just Feli Kuti - but the whole scene was blending funk, jazz and afrobeat in new ways. Its really quite addictive.

If you like Clem Snide, and you should because they are awesome, pick up Eef Barzelay's solo album Lose Big.
