Ondar is the man you want to be checking out.

If you want to learn more about this amazing art form, then this video can help appreciate it.
It starts with some live footage of Ondar, before some explanation of throat singing is provided courtesy of the hidden track at the end of Ondar's album - Back TUVA Future. Then it goes into more live footage with Ondar playing with Bela Fleck and Flecktones.

You may also want to check out Huun Huur Tu. And I'll never pass up an opportunity to recommend Sainkho Namtchylak either. She is a bit more out there and doesn't do full throat singing but very good on the overtone stuff.

If you want to hear Tuvan throat singing mixed up with western punk, then check out Yat Kha. Albert Kuvezin is the lead singer and started out with Huun Huur Tu.
With throat singing I like to think galloping horses - they love their horses and the music just takes you to images of horses all over the Monogolian Steppes. I love it!

I found it interesting when I first came across this before, even downloaded some albums. You're right though its kin funny. Even funnier is tuvan throat singers doing covers of famous western bands. Theres a collection of songs, one was joy division - love will never tear us apart again, one from the rolling stones, seriously hilarious! I'll find out the album name
