Here is a sample of the Wolverine song His Cold Touch. They were more of a death metal band earlier on. They are mellower now but still growl from time to time. I can't stand death growls but these don't make me cringe as much as Opeth does.

Alright. Thanks, Scott!

No one's been here for quite a while!

Considers sending CD player to repair shop. It must be broken. There is no way the melodic vocals of the usual Shred Room fare could sound like cookie monster. It must need repair.

Awww, poor ol' Fandanglist. I'd have thought prog metal would have offered more, uh, fertile territory than most subgenres, though. Perhaps I'm wrong.

I'm not familiar with Present but either way, I'm sure that it is better than listening to a vomiting walrus.

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

I guess vomiting walrus is one notch higher than cookie monster, but neither adequately describe the wonderfully sonorous and moving growling of Mr Åkerfeldt, which would be more readily likened to the rumbling roar of a TVR Tuscan as it motors effortlessly through the winding switch-backs on a treacherous Alpine pass, the throaty growl echoing between the glacial mountain peaks as if it had awakened the slumbering mountains themselves; Or to the deep orotund snore of a hibernating grizzly bear having an exceptionally bad dream, (after eating a particularly ripe Bree just before bedtime), about the eldritch preternatural phantasms that inhabit the mountain caves and prey on dozing ursine mammals.

...you have me at a loss Dean...a loss to know where you think them up from, and indeed whether you are an Opeth fan or not...

I must say that I really love Enchant's instrumental Progtology from Tug of War. It is definitely my kind of instrumental.
Here is a link to the video from their Live At Last DVD for the uninitiated into Enchant.
