Baroness, brilliant prog/sludge metal. A bit like older Mastodon. Both of their albums are great.

Pain of Salvation. Progressive Metal, hard to describe though. My favourite album is either The Perfect Element or Scarsick, although every album is great in my opinion.

Based on Lamb of God, Machine Head and Trivium are pretty good too. I liked them a hell of a lot when I used to like stuff like that.

I also got into Circa Survive because of Coheed, they're alt. rock really, but the vocals may turn you off. Also, The Syncope Threshold are like a heavier version of Coheed.

When I was listening to those kind of bands I then got into Opeth. They're a great gateway into the heavier stuff

I'm a big fan of Threat Signal. Check them out if you're interested in a mixture of clean and screamed vocals. Actually, check them out anyway, they're great!

Based on Misery Index, an obvious one is Dying Fetus as a lot of Misery Index members have been in that band at one point or another. There is also Mumakil, Leng Tch'e, maybe Cephalic Carnage..

I never got to see them.

Was that when they supported The Black Dahlia Murder?

Angron · 27-04-2010 8:29pm

Yeah, Cephalic Carnage and Psycroptic were there too.

GirlOfGlass · 27-04-2010 8:36pm
