Savatage
Dream Theater
Dio
Black Sabbath
Nevermore
Rainbow
Iron Maiden
Bruce Dickinson
Yngwie Malmsteen

... and some others that I'm forgetting probably.

NP: Nevermore - Dreaming Neon Black

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

Porcupine Tree
Emperor
Dream Theater

they're the main ones at the moment

 

[Alex78]

the only ones that come close to Opeth or sometimes I like better are Devin Townsend and Camel. the rest is not worthy

 

[Hexxan]

In Flames
Children of Bodom
Pain of Salvation
Dream Theatre
Metallica
Pantera
Symphony X
Arch Enemy

Opeth is my favourite, but My Dying Bride and David Caswell are right up alongisde.

 

[MetalManCPA]

Opeth are my favorite, but:
