Oceansize. Oh how I fucking love this band. Been in love with them since I've first heard of them, it's amazingly unfortunate they disbanded soon after I just started liking them, they never had one bad album or EP. I got around to listen their new album recently, which I got bored of last time and it's fucking phenomenal. Anyone who haven't heard of them, and love prog and post-rock should listen to them. They have an excitingly original yet familiar sound, too bad they never got noticed by the mainstream (which was unlikely to happen anyway, but hey).

Shining, this band, pretty mindblowing. Not to be confused with the Swedish suicidal black metal band (cringe). I would say they combine prog, jazz, noise and extreme metal together perfectly.

The Ocean Collective, prog metal band. They have two concept albums based on religious fallacies, you can see that they are pretty well informed/opinionated in the areas of philosophy, history, religion and science. Their lyrics are not amazing, but are pretty good considering the material they are writing on. Their music is pretty good though, sludgey prog metal .

Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, this band, even more interesting. I think people describe them as Advant Garde metal, personally, I think they sound like a more experimental Meshuggah

Alcest, heard of this band before from [m]NeSchn[/m] but only gave them a serious listen lately. Their second record is a pretty good amalgamation of Shoegaze and Black Metal, though some Black Metal fans might disagree, since many of them seem to hate shoegaze (not surprising). Though their first record is a traditional BM record I believe.
