I'd consider this far away enough from a similar death metal thread to warrant a reply. I figured all metal is fine, so I jumped around. Most are Melodeath though.

Swallow the Sun
Divine Heresy
Scar Symmetry
Devildriver
Woe of Tyrants (even though there are slight religious tie-ins, the music is great)
Sybreed
Lamb of God
Meshuggah
Insomnium
Machinemade God
Chimaira
Fear Factory
Mors Principium Est

The list goes on. Those bands are on my daily playlists often. (I make them up as I go.)

Im a sucker for the old-school. Bands like Candlemass were among the first to shape the genre.

"Heavily influential doom metal band that pioneered the post-Sabbath-clone innovations in doom metal which culminated in its early-90s surge in popularity."
