Something that doesn't sound like every other band in genre and has some sort of feeling to it besides just blasting the listener into oblivion. Also if it is innovative in anyway that is a bonus but quality is paramount.

Oh and avoid the obvious like Lykathea Aflame, Vehemence etc. thanks.

Children Of Bodom is full of gayboy butt-loving emotions. Does that count?

hahaha

how the fuck can anyone say "this is emotional" anyways? if you listen to it, and you say "wow that's emotional", the emotions have probobly been formulated to be in there, thus stripping it of any real emotion. you're being lied to. i mean, how do you measure emotions? you can't instill a riff with emotions because everyone is going to experience it in a different way.

metal is about beer, drinking, satan, and great storytelling. emotions be damned.
 
Yes Death is emotional (Symbolic) ... But to say that it is only because of his death is stupid. Do you think pantera is emotional because dimebag is gone?

Fucking idiotic. All music of value is "emotional".

Quo Vadis, Intestine Baalism, Kronos, Holymarsh, capharnaum

I said avoid the obvious(and not any of them are really emotional).

By emotional I don't mean the singer has to actually cry (ie Uaral), but the riffs sould have a sorrowful and/or melancholic feel to them. Something that is more akin to Black or Doom Metal but used in a Death Metal context. Anything else besides the Rudra and Mourning Beloveth rec?
 
something different with strong emotion are Hollenthon's two albums. dunno if you're familiar with them, and while not entirely death metal, Aeternus' first three releases are as emotional as they are bludeoning
