Depends what you like Pianoman. I'm still working my way through these myself. I didn't fancy AAXSKFG on Jamendo  for some reason, (looked to be an enthusiast rather than a proper release), but it was really good. Prophecy Within and Prospekt were quite technical and pretty good. Just finishing off Sweet Painful Reality by Envinity which is quite a gentle (for metal) gothy album and certainly worth a download. I've been going through the prog metal (now on experimental) looking for new sounds to listen to. I've picked up plenty - just need to find time to review them now! Yurt were excellent. If you want some melodic death metal then the Undefined album was really goodI In fact if you (or someone else) enjoy the Myspace download, I've a spare CD that Jaime from the band sent (he sent me a spare) that's free to a good home. (I've also got an unplayed Fourteen Twentysix Lighttown Closure spare too btw). Oh, and the Ocean Architecture album was superb - really enjoyed this, although I must confess I downloaded it for free. I usually take the albums for free where available and if I enjoy them fork out for the CD if available (although the wife's starting to complain that CDs are taking over the house!).

@Bosh66 This makes me happy. Gonna start checking some of these out! (oh and thanks for posting OA's record )

What is one of the better records you've posted that I' should listen to?
