Out of those I have heard, Dying Fetus, and Nocturnus. I think you already recc'd me Runemagik so I'll bump them up the list. The other two have been added to my list.

Bro, bump Lykathea Aflame to the top of your list. That **** is like the album Nile wish they could record. And I like Nile. Runemagick is ****ing awesome too though.

Understood. I just bumped them both up. I also have Nile to listen to on that list. I tried them last year. Didn't like them that much. But I want to get into them.

Nile are pretty righteous. They're gimmicky, but they still rule.
