Jonathan Coulton is by far one of the most under appreciated singer songwriters right now. I know I've linked to him before and have posted a song, but I'm somewhat ashamed that I haven't done a whole entry dedicated to JoCo.
Stylistically, Coulton is very They Might Be Giants-esque: unbelievably clever, hilarious, and musically versatile (everything from "soft rock" to ballads to completely infectious pop.) I hesitate to call it "geek rock" as that might turn people away, but most of the beauty behind his catchy rock music lies in the brilliant and, more often than not, hysterically funny lyrics.
You can download a bunch of songs for free on his site, where they are also available for purchase (which is recommended!) It was nearly impossible to choose just a few songs to post here, so go forth and listen to as much as you possibly can.
