Extreme Yet Beautiful, Ambient, and Awe-Inspiring

[Death Aflame]

I just checked out that Argentum album and after one listen through its pretty sweet. However, at first I couldn't stand the sound of the rhythm guitars, they sound so flat and really lack an interesting texture. I still don't like the sound of them, but I am able to look past that now and see that the album as a whole is pretty damn good.

My first thoughts were also similar to this, but it only lasted about two songs and then I fell in love. I feel the somewhat, flat, lifeless rhythm guitars give the album an ancient, tomb-like atmosphere. The leads, though, are absolutely phenomenal. Chebb is a brilliant guitarist and he knows exactly how to play evocative, spine-tingling leads without them ever becoming pretentious or pointless. Overall, Ad Interitum Funebrarum is probably the best blind purchase I've made.

What genre is this?

By the way, as i have already made a serious response, i might also suggest half-seriously that you should check some Beethoven symphonies.
Not Metal, but beautifull

Check out Dawn Of Dreams - Darklight Awakening. Very good Sacramentum-like black/death with melody.

Symphonic death/doom with touches of black metal.

Get Draconian: The Burning Halo.

 

[Hatebreeder]

Anata - The Infernal Depths Of Hatred (sublime use of emotional melody)

I just bought this album recently and loved it. It struck me as typical melodeath fare, but I soon discovered it was beyond that.

Symphonic death/doom with touches of black metal.

Absolutely.
