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

Ghost - spillways

They are supposedly heavy metal, but they got all kinds of stuff in there.

Be'lakor

Orbit Culture

Parasite Inc

Hatesphere

The Halo Effect

Unleash The Archers

Hammerfall

Mystic Prophecy

Windrose

The Ocean - Swoon

Job for a Cowboy - The Forever Rot - technical death metal/progressive metal

Lacuna Coil - Delirium - gothic metal with a mix of clean/harsh female/male vocals

Decapitated - Veins - technical death metal

VOLA - Head Mounted Sideways - progressive metal with a mix of clean and harsh vocals

Caligula's Horse - Slow Violence - progressive metal with mostly clean vocals

Skyharbor - Miracle - progressive metal with clean vocals

Baroness - Shine - progressive metal with mostly clean vocals and mix of male/female

Igorrr - Spirituality and Distortion

Slipknot - Iowa

May I suggest Twelve Foot Ninja https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SYvzn5grrI

Spotify links cuz I'm lazy — not in any particular order:

• Architects - "Spit the Bone"
• Chaosbay - "New Age" Do take a listen to the whole album if you like this song. It's a concept album and the music really flows quite well from track to track.
• Beartooth - "Below"
• Beartooth - "In Between"
• Ice Nine Kills - "The American Nightmare" This band's interesting, in that their last two albums' tracks are all inspired from/are about various horror movies.
• While She Sleeps - "Sleeps Society"
• Periphery - "Wax Wings"
• Bury Tomorrow - "Begin Again"
• Everture - "Empire"
• Dark Tranquility - "Eyes of the World"
• Countless Skies - "Tempest"
• Shylmagoghnar - "Transience"

This thread is a scorcher. Excellent recommendations.

I could do this all evening but I've picked a few favourites. These are artist recommendations rather than just tracks.

Here's some accessible ones (Spotify links):

• Primordial - Empire Falls
• Ghost Brigade - Suffocated
• Leprous - The Flood
• *shels - Butterfly (on Luci's Way)
• Sólstafir - Necrologue
• Sleep Token - The Summoning
• Saor - Monadh
• Amon Amarth - Twilight of the Thunder God

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!
