Mechina - Siege. Take a metal band with industrial influences. Release an album. Take that album. Add tons of atmospherics and electronica. Release that version as well. Now take that, and add angelic votes, and some harsh and release that as well. You can buy whichever version you prefer. All great for the different reasons

Wayfarer – American Gothic. The jangly guitar alternate 1890s death/black metal band you didn’t know you needed.

Sermon - on golden verse. proggy anthemic melodeath with fantastic clean vocals.

It’s prog but Angra with Kiko as lead guitarist is still the greatest of all time for me. Kiko left the band for Megadeth a little while back, their new guitarist is solid but just not on the same level. Rebirth, Fireworks and Temple of Shadows are probably my top 3 favorite albums.

• Nickelback
• Steely Dan
• Silversun Pickups
• Goldfrapp

• Leprous - The Flood
• *shels - Butterfly (on Luci's Way)
• Sólstafir - Necrologue
• Sleep Token - The Summoning

And some slightly less accessible ones (Also Spotify links):

• Alter of Plagues - Found, Oval and Final
• Behemoth - Messe Noire
• The Angelic Process - Burning in the a Undertow of God
• Ihsahn - Arcana Imperii
• Bell Witch - Beneath the Mask
• or if you're feeling brave enough to listen to a single, album length sludge/doom track, Bell Witch - Mirror Reaper

I will also strongly second the already recommend Chelsea Wolfe, Opeth, Alcest, Orbit Culture and 3TEETH!
