If you're looking for math influences with pop sensibilities, Battles is a good choice (thought they would have been mentioned already)(ok upon re-reading the thread they were mentioned but w/e).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpGp-22t0lU Atlas -- Battles
From their most recent release, Mirrored (and only LP, their 2 EPs are good too)

I think Dirty Projectors can fall under this category also, though they're probably not what this thread's looking for.

Also good but less poppy are By the End of Tonight

Poor quality video of them playing a track from Tribute to Tigers. It's a good album, but their best track (Delirious, Where Have You Been?) is on the less listenable In a Letter to the Sandbox.
