Are there any vocalists known for doing harsh growls/screams on this album? I enjoyed the little bits done by Devin Townsend and Mikael Akerfeldt on THE... Balanced out the rest of the roster.

A few bands/albums that come to mind and haven't been mentioned yet. Anata - The Conductor's Departure Cynic - Veil of Maya Martyr - Feeding the Abscess

Are we counting India? Demonic Resurrection is some cool symphonic black/death from those parts.

Canada and Poland need a lot more love.

Lol, it's cool man. I recall a lot of people claiming that was supposed to be Jesus' head, mostly due to the fact that that would make the cover all the more "br00tally" anti-Christian... However completely historically inaccurate/irrelevant, haha.
