That's a pretty weak list if you're going for unknowns.

I've heard all of those but I don't know if a music forum is really the best place to have an accurate gauge on how popular music is. I'd say a lot of people have heard of Death Cab For Cutie, Fiona Apple and Tori Amos.

She's one of those people that has quite a few songs out there(mostly movies) but nobody really knows who she is.

You should try doing bands like Meanwhile, Back In Communist Russia..., Midnight Movies, The Pink Mountaintops, and Codeine instead of those that you're doing.

I know of all of those except Alisha's Attic.
