What are some pretty or melodic metal bands you really like?

I'm a real huge fan of opeth (their album morning rise is still amazing to me even though i've been listening to it for 15+ years, and they're just awesome overall), I really like my dying bride, some cradle of filth, unhallowed by black dahlia murder, old arch enemy...

I'm trying to find some metal on the exquisite side to balance out the br00tal stuff! TELL ME WHAT YOU LOVE.

I like a bit of melody in my death metal.

"A Canorous Quintet" and "Vinterland" so far have my vote. All good stuff. That agalloch/old-opeth sound i guess is the thing that pulls my heart strings the most. I haven't found any objectionable opeth, i like the experimental aspect of what they do.

I'm such an emotional little boy.

Just post the youtube link in the post body, it usually embeds itself.
