Ok, very late, but here are some more I consider essential -

The Hidden Cameras
(AWOO, Boys of Melody, Shame, The Man That I Am With My Man - indie pop, more or less.)

Le Tigre (Deceptacon, Dyke March 2001, Get Off The Internet, Hot Topic, My Art, My My Metrocard, On The Verge, Sixteen, TKO, What's Ya Take On Cassavetes - essential riot grrl.)

The Magnetic Fields
(Come Back From San Francisco, All My Little Words, Falling in Love with the Wolfboy, How Fucking Romantic, I Can't Touch You Anymore, I Thought You Were My Boyfriend, Let's Pretend We're Bunny Rabbits, Love Is Like A Bottle Of Gin, Papa Was A Rodeo, When My Boy Walks Down the Street - slightly electronic, slightly folksy indie-pop with everything from furries to gay cowboys. :D )

Rosenstolz
(Amo Vitam, Liebe ist Alles, Schlampenfieber, Willkommen - German pop, kind of kitschy, but probably the most well-known queer German band.)

Xiu Xiu
(All We Ever Wanted Was Everything, Crank Heart, Fabulous Muscle, I Luv The Valley Oh, Luber - experimental, electro-ish and AWESOME.)

Full:
Bratmobile - Pottymouth (more essential Riot Grrrl)
Klaus Nomi - all songs, as far as I know (new wave-ish, sometimes experimental-ish countertenor with a crazy German accent, and sadly one of the first celebs that died of AIDS.)

Ok, gotta run, again.

Nah, I think this thing's still running, so I wouldn't say you're late. ;)
