Try Meredith Monk. Not always acapella and not really a band, her compositions do tend to center around unusual uses of the voice. Many of her recordings are related to her other work for stage and film (Yep, she's a "multimedia artist") and, therefore, tend to be conceptual in nature.

Two recommendations: Both "Mercy" and "Facing North" still get rotation on my play list. The later written with the desire to sonically express the sensations brought on by a Canadian winter. I can't say I've spent a winter in Canada nor feel the need to ( No offence to the Canadian readers, but if I have to deal with snow I want it served in inches not feet...) but listening to this piece does conjure up sensations that I imagine to be the authors intentions - Canadians, does she get close?
