What I've heard of Super Collider is excellent - getting the album soon, and saw a video on Alchemy on SBS-TV (Australia) the other night that was _fantastic_. Just thought I'd mention that for fucked up electronica with vocals, Australian band Snog (David Thrussel, also of Soma and Black Lung, and others) are pretty fantastic. Glitchy breaky stuff, drum'n'bassy sometimes... with strangely intoned extremely-cynical vocals by Thrussel. OK, so not perhaps "listenable" vocals - not commercial radio fare by a long shot! But still. Their latest album, "Third Mall from the Sun" is their best. All the singles contain multiple remixes and versions - the Atom Heart remixes of "The Ballad" are awesome, some of the best digital-cut-up stuff he's done.
