Bell Witch are professionals at making dark, haunting and depressing slow doom metal soundscapes, for the past decade they have surpassed expectations of what modern funeral doom metal could be. In 2010 Adrian Guerra and Dylan Desmond would form Bell Witch, they made a demo tape that would be passed around to various small record labels and would be eventually picked up by Profound Lore Records, they would soon record their first two studio albums "Longing" and "Four Phantoms" both receiving critical acclaim, and would kick off the bands strong discography. Unfortunately co founder Adrian Guerra would pass away due to a heart attack and would be replaced by Jesse Shreibman on drums. The bands next release (Mirror Reaper) would be a tribute to Adrian. Mirror Reaper would become the bands most celebrated work, the album being a single eighty four minute progressive funeral doom epic. The album gained lots of coverage and put Bell Witch on the map.

I've only listened to Mirror Reaper and didn't find them particularly progressive, but I haven't heard their newer two records yet.
I'll take them to the team, but I wouldn't expect much. I'm usually the one suggesting progressive doom bands, and the more funeral-leaning ones nearly invariably get rejected (Pantheist, Esoteric, Quercus, etc.).

My apologies, Bell Witch were rejected.
