Trollheart if I didn't have you to torment and abuse then this site would not be nearly as much fun. But only the Cryptopsy album was meant as torture. I am dubious that you would like Dissection, but I see it as the last ditch effort for a gateway band. If you don't like Dissection then it's pretty much over. So I was serious.

Not that you have to keep taking on my suggestions, but I'll just throw out another that I would seriously be interested in your opinion on. Arcturus' La Masquerade Infernale. It kind of reminds me of metallized seventies prog, complete with ridiculous, pretentious singing that I find laughable, but if you can take that whole "Hey nonny" goofiness then it might be right up your alley.
