well
I listen to a lot of diverse stuff and very underground bands
1.Mortem (The Mighty Peruvian band which has some of the sickest inhuman guitar solos ever.....PURE EVIL DEATH METAL)
http://run.to/mortem
2.Lycia (dark/industrial/gothic musick) total killer stuff and definetly worth checking out if you havent heard it before
3.Crimson Moon (unearthly occult black metal) This is also my friends band as well and crimson moon was also one of the earliest usbm cults with thier first demo that came out in 94......

4.Nibiru (haunting obscure black metal from california featuring members from crimson moon and abyssmal nocturne)........for those of who dont know what nibiru is, it is the 12 planet, home of the annunaki, the planet of crossing, the red star/comet......ancient cultures believed that the sun and moon were planets this making nibiru the 12 planet......although christianity tries to deny of this knowledge......scientists believe this to be very credible.

Estatic Fear (attention opeth fans i am sure you will love this band)
if you can find them i definetly recommend it, as they combine atmospheric music with acoustic guitars, beautiful female vocals, and some death/doom metal parts.....making this one of my altime favorite bands
Estatic fear is a very rare band, but if you have soulseek you may be able to find it or here is the only merch page i have ever found, but its in german i think.
