Epic and/ or Intense Metal

I'm looking for some songs that have a really epic and intense sound. By that I mean having a slow and quiet intro and then slowly building up, becoming more intense and then just exploding into crushing instruments and vocals. Sorry if I wasn't able to explain it very well but is there anything you'd recommend?

Sorry if that's a bit too much black metal.

Epic and Intense are usually two different things to me. If you want epic I would try Moonsorrow.

Sokyra Peruna's cover of "Honor and Blood" sounds like what you're after.

Drudkh's False Dawn fron 'Forgotten Legends' or Summoning's 'Stronghold',would both fit the bill also.
