Holy god, yes! I've been searching for a band as epic as Viking-era Bathory for years. I found a few that came at least somewhat close (Atlantean Kodex, Solstice, Doomsword), but nothing that ever quite scratched that itch in the same way that Quorthon could. I think my search may have finally yielded real fruit. I think I'm going to be listening to a lot of Falkenbach in the near future. Slow and heavy like Bathory, but not as heavy. They also seem to throw in a lot of folk influences and more complex arrangements that are quite delicious. Whereas Bathory are the epitome of Viking glory, Falkenbach seem to evoke a more mysterious, mythical atmosphere.

Windir is always my go-to for epic extreme metal

Epic doom/power metal awesomeness.

Another band I've listened to a few times and really dug, but never got around to exploring as much I'd like. Holy **** this is a brutal song. I'm gonna have to do some serious listening to figure out which Killing Joke album to put up in the industrial metal album battle of my Metal Album Survivor thread.

Can't find an album version on Youtube, but this live version is just as intense. Skip to about 1:00 if you don't want to listen to the singer rant about Jesus. Fun fact: the band broke up for the first time when that guy went crazy and fled to Iceland in order to escape the coming nuclear holocaust. This was almost as good as when he went crazy and supposedly hired a hitman to kill one of the people who worked at his record company (he called it off at the last minute).

I listen to The Satanist literally every day. This is my favorite song, love that deep inhale at the beginning
