Best metal 2000-present (dance, rock, albums, rolling stones, career)

Opeth, SikTh, Meshuggah, and The Human Abstract have to be some of my favorites.

Man i dont get these prog/ tech guys. aside from messhugah none of them seem to understand dynamics. ive never heard such fast music that was so boring. best metal 2000-?

kataklysm has been pretty sick. mostly people are just re-doing old things or taking one part of one genre and over-doing it. alot of people are getting into stuff like dillenger escape plan or the human abstract and calling it metal. that stuff is cool not that great but its hardcore not metal.

i am the only one here who actually likes metal? like real metal and not just cause of where it comes from?

Kataklysm has not been sick as of recently. Actually, they sound like every other melodeath band to come out besides the fact that they're supposedly "hyperblast" or whatever the ****. Old school Kataklysm (i.e. MGoR, Sorcery, Temple of Knowledge) is the only good Kataklysm

I think Dark Tranquillity has been a top band for awhile now, and are still pumping out quality music.

Protest the Hero and Meshuggah are pretty good though too.

Opeth
Between the Buried and Me

These two bands pretty much own the sound of 2000-era metal as far as im concerned, not to mention how much they have progressed over the course of this decade. They are the first that come to mind.

p.s. Opeth released their 1st album in the mid 90's, but i still consider them more of a 2000 era juggernaut in metal.

I dont see how Opeth qualify for this thread for that very reason, and they have been mentioned several times.
