I will of course recommend Kayo Dot, Choirs of the Eye is a modern classic as far as I'm concerned but if your not so hot on their metal elements then try Blue Lambency Downward or Coyote. Another Toby Driver project to try would Tartar Lamb, you might like the second album Polyimage of Known Exits more than the first.

Here's a few more

Fantomas- Suspended Animation
Miasma and the Carousel of Headless Horses- Perils
NeBeLNeST- ZepTo
OOIOO- Kila Kila Kila, Taiga
Red Masque- Feathers for Flesh
Shinning- Blackjazz
Zu- Carboniferous

	Thanks very much to you all for your great interesting recommendations. As I said before, I will need some time to check it all out, but I'm going to look up everything. Very few of them were already known to me, like Shub-Niggurath (I have only their first album, which is great) or Kayo Dot. But most of them are new to me. The Knells (eponymous album) is great! Especially the female vocals. Edited by Skalla-Grim - August 05 2015 at 14:44

	I'd like to recommend Arktis/Air from Wien, Austria. http://arktisair.bandcamp.com/album/en-trance "Take John Zorn's Painkiller and mix it with the post metal efforts of Isis and the occasional 70's prog experiments in the vein of King Crimson. Garnish the whole sonic spectacle with insane blast beats à la Napalm Death, the complexity and technical finesse of Jazz and add a pinch of Melvins. How do these ingredients blend? Allow Arktis/Air to demonstrate." Michael Ternai, MICA
