[Album] The Metal Thread! (The Zombie Edition)

Can you people probably give me a hint what other bands to look for...?
I'm in the mood of exploring around a bit in the broader genre...
So, what band should a big fan of Fear Factory, In Flames (admitadbly I actually like Soundtrack to your Escape and Reroute to remain which I have the feeling are somewhat shunned by "real" In Flames fans...), Killswitch Engage, Children of Bodom, Unearth and, well someone who actually likes it when bands evolve their style and don't cry "omg they changed their style! I HATE THEM NOW!" turn to when he's in the mood of experimenting around a bit?
So, what other bands would be worth a try? Hellacoptas? Entombed? I tried Amon Amarth and Iced Earth but I'm not really made for that... "true" stuff.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm by far not a "metal only" person.
On the contrary, I tend to listen to all kinds of music, metalish stuff is just among my favorites...
For example, I love Coheed and Cambria to pieces... And... Alexisonfire...
I just like good guitar-, and drumwork.

So I'll try to give Dream Theater a listen...

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oh yes. Therion's "must have listened to" album is definetly Theli.
Though I have to admit that I've somewhat lost interest in them after Deggial, which was a good Album, but a little too heavy on the orchestra and too light on the metal for my taste.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
