I don't agree with that. How would someone who'd never heard anything in the genre come across anything other than/before Amanda Palmer? Yes, people who are hard fans of hers go looking for more obscure bands, but people who are "meh" about her, won't. She is the first thing you find in that genre and for some people who don't absolutely adore the genre, she's probably the only thing they find as well.

Do you stick to only one genre? Ever go out and actually see a show? There are tons of ways to learn about other performers, including for those new to the genere. Through other fans and by attending shows is the typical, but anyone could do a google search about the genre and find myspaces for the acts with links to their songs and dates for their shows. Who knows how many are on youtube. Just research the genre and the artists come flowing out and far more than just Amanda.

Of course, but if I only feel "meh" about the first person I find, I won't be inclined to dig any deeper into that genre. I love Flogging Molly and I have discovered a ton of acts I like through going to their shows and playing their Last.fm stations, so I totally agree with you on that point. But what I'm trying to say here is that someone who doesn't instantly like the first (most mainstream) band they find in a genre, isn't likely to go through that effort to find more.

yeah, but if someone is just 'meh' about a band, they're not the sort of fans who make a big deal out of how much the like an act in the first place, are they?

Last.fm is one very easy way.

I had a ton of dark cabaret and other similar groups recced at me there thanks to having just some Dresden Dolls & AP on my playlist.

I made the same experience. I like the Dresden Dolls and Amanda Palmer just fine, because I love Kurt Weill and 1920s cabaret music and their newer re-interpretations, and I found many interesting performers through Last.fm.
