Thanks everyone (apart from DarknessEternal, you skanky tortoise-tosser).

I'll get round to trying them all out, soooon.

Meanwhille....More more more more more :Smug:
 
Mekong Delta is a band that I found a couple of their discs and I can't stop listening to them! Does anyone know where I can purchase their complete catalog?
 
Supermoi-
"I tried a few of them out..."

I've only heard Amoral. I can't subject my puter to constant mp3 downloading abuse. We've come to an agreement. As long as I don't download, IT WILL KEEP WORKING. I've only begun to explore these recommendations.

Sweet thread by the way. Very informative. I'm actually glad it's here and not in the off topic. I don't usually have time to browse both forums.
 
I would recommend one of those:

Meshuggah (fucking sick rythms!)

Primordial

Shining (The best CD is the one called "Angst", just check them out they are really great.)

Anathema

Tenhi

Cryptopsy

Mourning Beloveth

Dark Suns

Of course bands like Emperor, My Dying Bride etc. but I think you know most of them
 
Winds
Death
Cynic
Amon Amarth
Immortal
Extol
Tourniquet
Mercyful Fate
Sacramentum
Dissection
 
Netheral-
"Mourning Beloveth... Dark Suns."

I've been meaning to hear Dark Suns. There albums available at EBay, but I don't want to hear it without a test run first. Ya know? Mourning Beloveth? Hm... what happened to that? I tried hearing some of their stuff once. It didn't happen. Hm.
 
Already said but check Obtained Enslavement . A must for symphonic black metal addicts .

I don't think their complete catalogue is available anymore. At least in Germany - Mekong Delta is a German band - most of their CDs aren't available.

@topic
Try SATURNUS. (www.saturnus.dk). "Martyr" and "Paradise belongs to us" are great records IMHO. Blacker, slower, deeper than OPETH but with the same mix of clean and growling vocals. Awesome production, great songs - one of my favourite black metal bands.
