    Hmm tough call.. most the metal I like is of the European variety (US metal is too mainstream imo). Anyway in no particular order (except maybe Draconian, because damn it is all I want to listen to lately)

    Draconian
    Nightwish (back when Tarja was the vocalist)
    Tarja
    Amberian Dawn
    Xandria
    Epica (some of their older stuff mainly)
    Eternal Tears of Sorrow
    Rammstein
    Adrana
    Tristania (the days of Vibeke)
    Septic Flesh
