Katatonia - Instrumental (the guitar interplay is incredibly beautiful. I often get chills by the lead)
Anathema - 2000 And Gone (great chillout song with fine acoustics)
Dream Theater - Overture 1928 (great melody throughout)
Agalloch - The Misshappen Steed (pure atmosphere)
Emperor - Al Svartr, The Oath (incredible acoustics. gives me chills every time)

 

[Fahrenheit]

In alphabetical order:

Anathema - Violence
In Flames - Whoracle
Katatonia - Inside the City of Glass
Opeth - For Absent Friends
Silent Hill 2 - music from the teaser and in the beginning of the game. If some of you knows the band and it's name let me know.

 

[stefan86]

@Fahrenheit: I've got some kind of Silent Hill 2 soundtrack thingy. It's made by Akira Yamaoka. I'm guessing it's what you're looking for.

 

[Hypnos]

Opeth - Epilogue
Katatonia - Inside The City Of Glass
Agalloch - The Hawthorne Passage
Emperor - The Wanderer
Dream Theater - Hell's Kitchen

 

[Divatkreació]

The new album by Celtic Frost is great and the final song Winter (Requiem) is astonishing.

Other instrumentals:
Forgotten Tomb - Springtime depression
Neurosis - Shelter
Explosions in the Sky - First breath after coma
The Red Sparowes - Alone and unaware, the landscape was transformed in front of our eyes
October Tide - Dear sun

And stuff by Pelican, Kayo Dot, Mono, Ulver and Váli +many more

 

[stefan86]

Forgotten Tomb - Springtime depression

Damn, I forgot about that one

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

Pelican - Sirius
Explosions In The Sky - 'First Breath After Coma'
Dream Theater - 'Stream Of Consciousness'
Hope Of The States - 'The Black Amnesias'
Borknagar - 'The Weight Of The Wind' (just cuz I think it's cool)

I also wanna mention 'Ad Astra' by Arcturus. I know it isn't strictly an instrumental, but I usually think of it as one. It pwns.

 

[**Jester**]

Yeah back in the world is absolutely amazing.

1. Daylight Dies - Back in the world
2. Opeth - Silohette
3. Katatonia - Inside the city of glass
4. Novembre - Foto Blu Infinito
5. Agalloch - the hawthorne passage

 

[Peachy]

I can't really think of more than a few...I know my favorite at least.

Dream Theater - The Dance of Eternity

Katatonia - Inside the City of Glass is also excellent, mostly because I feel like it really works as an ending to that cd, and even without vocals manages to be quite bleak, I think.

 

[the mourner13]

katatonia-Instrumental
katatonia-Inside the city of glass
In Flames-Dialogue with the stars(a fuckin mind blower)
In Flames-Jester's Dance

[the mourner13]

[The Foreverlorn]

Arch Enemy - Stigmata
At the Gates - Into the dead sky
Katatonia - Instrumental
Ulver - the whole Lyckantropen CD

[MadTinus]

First of all one of the most underrated songs of one of the most underrated bands:

- EUCHARIST - The Eucharist (everyone MUST buy the "Mirrorworlds" album, it should be punished not to own it), this is just an awesome track, great melodies, great dynamics, great harmonies, great atmosphere.

- Metallica - Orion
- Porcupine Tree - Ambulance Chasing
- Daylight Dies - Dismantling Devotion
- Katatonia - For Funerals To Come... (OK, it features a few lines of speech, but I consider it an instrumental)

 

[Verwuestung]

Porcupine Tree - Ambulance Chasing

nice pick!
