Not a huge metal person, but coming from a rock background, I've really been into Bad Omens lately. They have a kinda alternative sound to them imo.
I'm going to show my age with this list, and metal is such a large genre I don't always know what counts. Hopefully there's new ones for some folks that you'll enjoy as much as I do.
- Bleed - Meshuggah
- Serums of Liao - High on Fire
- A Colossal Wreck - Every Time I Die I really love this one because I feel like you get 3 songs in 1. Might count as punk instead, I dunno.
- Hypermania - Polaris
- Earth Scar - Decapitated
- Loyal To None - Kublai Khan TX
- Rebuttal - Johnny Booth
- Dark Horse - Converge
- Blood and Thunder - Mastodon
- New Low - Thrown
Here's few of my favorites
One of my favorites from Kiuas as it also contains part where they sing in Finnish :P More popular songs are "Warrior Soul" and "Kiuassault".
Turmion Kätilöt - Vastanaineet
2 Times Terror - Ikävässä Paikassa (side project of Turmion Kätilöt)
Children Of Bodom - Are You Dead Yet?, also Oops I Did It Again! is epic 😁
Bring Me The Horizon ft. Babymetal - Kingslayer
Star-Lord band - Zero to Hero (from Guardians of the Galaxy game)
Noora Louhimo is a goddess. What a voice! (The singer of Battle Beast).
I've seen her live and I tell you, she somehow sounds even better?!
Death Metal Æther Realm, Heaven Shall Burn
Merchant of the Void by 3Teeth with Mick Gordon (maker of the Doom 2016 and Eternal soundtrack(
Some sick Pacific Northwest metal/hardcore to checkout:
There’s SO MUCH good modern hardcore music here right now that I’m barely scratching the surface, but hopefully at least one of these does something for you!
As an atheist living in an incredibly conservative Christian area, it's fun wearing band shirts for acts like you've listed. Lamb of God, Cannibal Corpse, Mayhem...
Gojira was one of my favorite concerts
-
alien weaponry. Kiwi band that have a lot of Maori (nz indigenous people/language) in their music.
-
red. Christian metal band, but still good for non Christians since it's just based on Christian values not directly worship.
Sleep Token
These guys have an incredible range and mix up different styles in a way that is quite unique. I'm not normally someone who pays that much attention to drums but their drummer really is amazing. The singer can do both clean and 'dirty' vocals.
First time in ages I've been excited about a new band!
I recently discovered Fit for a King and I really like them! Actually got to see them live earlier this year :3c

Try out some Botanist.
Two instrument black metal. Drums, and hammer dulcimer. Sometimes has Bass guitar. Very atmospheric. Interesting vibes.
here is their upcoming album which has some good singles
Hamferð is also pretty slick.
Their new album Men guðs hond er sterk is an absolute banger. Absolutely crushing death-doom. Their previous album, Tàmsins likam was probably my favorite album of the year.
I'm listening to Botanist.
Fucking weird, but fucking good.
Hamfero is pretty solid.
In exchange I offer Devil
And Warmoon Lord
Some of recommendations I did not already see, that are not-that-well-known; all of these are various flavors of melodic death metal:
Parasite Inc. - Once and for All
The Agonist - Panophobia (unfortunately, the band is now defunct)
"Kardashev is a progressive death metal band hailing from Tempe, AZ, whose lyrics focus on the advancement of the human race through themes of technology, selflessness, love, and altruism. Given their positive take on death metal, their style has been jokingly referred to as “life metal,” and they also embrace the genre tag “deathgaze” (death metal + shoegaze) which perfectly describes their ambient death metal approach. "
Don’t have links atm but
Alpha Wolf (Just released a record today)

Cliffside
Knocked Loose

Darko US
Aviana
Varials
Invent Animate

Bloodywood has a hold in my heart. Truly fun metal. Bloodywood - Gadaar
Arka'n Asrafokor is the band I'd push the hardest. Effing talented Arka'n - Walk with us
I like Dir En Grey, its just a bunch of japanese dads doing heavy metal
I think this is considered prog metal, not sure. But the band Animals as Companions. I think they are fucking awesome. Combat Cartography (iirc) is a awesome track check out.
I'm not into rock/metal enough to know all the genres that well, but alot of the heavier stuff has singers that just ruin it for me. Animals deals with that in Mt favorite way, no singer.
I love Jesters Dance by In Flames, but that seems to be one of the few they have without singing.
Mandroid Echostar - Catchy prog metal with clean vocals
Anaal Nathrakh - Grind/black metal with industrial influences
The Arcane Order - Long-form melodic death metal
Arcania - Kinda like a thrashier Gojira
Rivers of Nihil - Proggy death metal
Unfathomable Ruination - Brutal tech death
Thantifaxath - Dissonant black metal
We Lost the Sea - Post-metal. I need to give some context for this one:
Departure Songs is inspired by failed, yet epic and honourable journeys or events throughout history where people have done extraordinary things for the greater good of those around them, and the progress of the human race itself. This is a celebration and a tribute. Each song has it’s own story and is a soundtrack to that story.
This is our 3rd album and our first instrumental album. We’re exploring new ground and exploring ourselves in the past 2 and a bit years since Chris went on his own journey. It’s slightly bleak with shimmers of hope and layers of emotion. It’s a tribute and a catharsis of emotion and honesty.
I.e., their vocalist died and this was their way of grieving. Incredibly deep cut IMO.
Alpinist - "heavylowfastslowdark hardcore"
Dark Tranquility
Katatonia
Draconian
Omnium Gatherum
Insomnium
- Aether
