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.
I'm such a huge fan of Mechina! My favorite album is Acheron.
Siege is the high point for me - it’s where I came in, but the mix of the metal + electronica + symphonic + beauty vocals is prettyy much perfect there. I like the newer and older, and I love being able to strip away the layers.

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!
Hello fella fan from Arka'n. Writing so I can check your recommendations later.

May I suggest Twelve Foot Ninja https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SYvzn5grrI
Twelve Foot Ninja is fantastic. A little bit funky and weird, but still heavy, and some very positive vibes
