All of these ones are absolutely great. Listen to this guy.

Scar Symmetry - Symmetric in Design, Pitch Black Progress.

Kinda melodic death with low growls, screams, and amazing clean vocals.
Solos are great too.

[Einherjar86]

If you like COB, check out Norther. I personally think Death Unlimited is their best album.

Other good melodic metal is Borknagar and Amorphis.

Good Borknagar albums: The Olden Domain, The Archaic Course, Quintessence, Empiricism
Good Amorphis albums: Tales From the Thousand Lakes, Elegy, Eclipse, Silent Waters (many will also say The Karelian Isthmus, which is a good album; it's more straight line death metal, whereas after that album they went in a more melodic direction)

[Txsxhx]

Also try Swamplord, They Will Return, and Swampsong by Kalmah.

You really can't go wrong with any of the above recommendations. As most of those are essentials!

However, I thought I would throw out a new band you might enjoy. They combine a few of the bands you like as well as some of the aforementioned recommendations. The band is Epicurean. Take a listen:
