Kind of an open-ended request, but can anyone recommend me really dark sounding music, does not have to be metal-based. Looking for stuff with identifiable song structures, meaning traditional frameworks. Maybe something with folk, pop or electronic touches.

That's a very good list. I will definitely check out thrash and power metal bands that I haven't checked out yet.
Could you add Cryptopsy to death metal section? |

They were described to me as some fruitcake band thta's all "Scary" and whatnot. I'll check them out, but I'm definitely not looking for that if its the case. You guys all fap over Rome, so basically stuff that sounds like "Querkraft". But for the love of god, don't recommend me a bunch of neo-martial army military pop industrial just because it's convenient. Y'know what I mean, though? Stuff that has that sort of ominous tone. Even like the new Hateful Abandon, just a little less South Park Goth-y. Or like Type O Negative, but without songs that go on three minutes too long and a vocalist who's probably masturbating while singing.

Dillenger Escape Plan, Between The Buried And Me, Burst, Cursed, and As The Sun Sets totally need to be added to the metalcore reccs.

What about bands in the Porcupine Tree/Tool/Oceansize mould?
I think there needs to be a category for them, somewhere inbetween prog and psychedelica. |

I heard it the first time, I plan on it.
Also, add Nick Cave's Tender Prey as another style I'm looking for into that huge request I had last page. |
