Death Metal: Opeth (if that counts as death metal)

Progressive Metal: Dream Theater or Opeth (if that counts as progressive metal). If progressive rock is allowed I will say Yes or Camel.

Doom Metal: My Dying Bride. If Type O Negative qualifies, I will choose them!
Symphonic Black Metal: Uhhmm, does Satyricon, Emperor or Dimmu Borgir's "Enthrone darkness triumphant" count? What about Limbonic Art's "Moon in the Scorpio"?
