Who is the best "unknown" music artist in Japan?

What I mean is, what music artist do you know of that produces great music, but for whatever reason isn't very popular in Japan?

1. I could never really understand why there's never songs by "The Cure" at karaoke. I mean, they only have like 20 albums stretching back to the 70's. They have played in Japan a few times though, but still, for their size in the West, they're almost unknown in Japan.
2. The Cowboy Junkies
3. Babamania! Way more popular internationally from their contribution to EA's FIFA soundtrack than in their home country of Japan
