    What kind of perspective are you looking for? Like ones that are mentioned a lot by press and get good reviews? Do they have to be recent? Do you want more mainstream or more generally well liked by people who like metal? Can they be obscure?

    Mainstream and new (not necessarily ones I like) :

    • Knocked Loose
    • Poppy
    • Sleep Token
    • Lorne Shore

    Recent ish and well liked, maybe more underground:

    • Archsprire
    • Imperial Triumphant
    • Ghost

    Generally well liked by metalheads, not necessarily new or not new :

    • Slayer
    • Death
    • Cynic
    • Beyond Creation
    • Napalm Death

    Ones I like because they are well made :

    • Behold The Arctopus (check out Canada for an entry point, the song Skullgrid is too chaotic for newcomers)
    • Igorrr
    • Pryapisme
    • Slugdge
    • Artificial Brain
