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"

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

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!

Method - Run for Your Life

Duoxini - Sin of Society

Will take any excuse to recommend this album: Sybreed - The Pulse of Awakening

This is gonna stretch the definition but

Dorthia Cottrell from Windhand did a country album and it's so good

Fulci "Tropical Sun" Excellent death metal. https://youtu.be/Co4Kun9VEG0?si=kZs_fxGp1OR9-ryN
