The thread, or Kamelot?

I consider every metal beautiful.

This post is winning so far, by the way

 

[Lord Kur]

agalloch, actually

i can see kamelot's value

 

[Life Sucks]

Mourning Beloveth much of the time. Narcissistic Funeral and the instrumental passages in These Mountains are Mine and The Sickness are good examples.

 

[Nightmare_Heaven]

Abigor, Drudkh, Ulver, Katatonia, October Tide, Skepticism, Burzum, Summoning, Jesu, Borknagar, Dissection, Opeth

Dark Tranquility - The Gallery, because you provide me with an opportunity to mention it.

Some parts of Eluveite's stuff qualifies but not all
Rhapsody also
Death - Voice Of The Soul
Blind Guardian

Ne Obliviscaris - The Aurora Veil, absolutely beautiful stuff

i definetley agree with agalloch and maudilin of the well. a lot of the bands being listed are really good but not what i would consider beautiful.the most beautiful shit i have ever heard is in the post metal/ atmospheric sludge genre.

these bands define beautiful metal:

mouth of the architect
pelican
ISIS
cult of luna

I know a lot of people here don't care for them, but I consider them to be one of the more unique power metal bands. And the melodies and lyrics that they come up with are incredible.

Empyrium's first two albums apply more than any other thing mentioned here so far.

they're overrated, but they are more 'beautiful' than Agalloch, that's for sure.

 

[Vacant_Planets]

Maybe some of Steel Prophet's stuff.....then Dying Fetus.

Ne Obliviscaris beats both of 'em

I would've loved them if I was still into power metal when I discovered them. I wasn't though, but I can still tell they're great.
