Porcupine Tree - definitely NOT Fear of a Blank Planet, it's the only one of their later discography which I don't spin. Get one of these: Stupid Dream - Lightbulb Sun - In Absentia - Deadwing.
Death: get Individual Through Patterns.
Katatonia: yeah, Brave Murder Day owns. Mikeal did the growls on that album. Their last one, while not properly doom metal, also kicks ass. It's called "The Great Cold Distance".
Can't help with Symphony X, sorry. If you like them, you might check out Ayreon, more proggy adn "synthetized", I like them (be warned, they are quite a lot cheesy).

I agree with your recommendation. It's easily superior to Deadwing, and I think all the tracks are extremely good.

Agreed.
Anesthetize is probably one of my favourite songs ever.
