Protest The Hero is one of my favorite band right now - some very talented guys putting out very innovative music for the genre. I would highly recommend it for anyone who likes punk, hardcore, or metal.

For recommendations I'd have to suggest Edge of Sanity first and foremost. If you can find either Crimson or Crimson II (both are seperate albums) buy them immediately. Two albums of amazing metal (think In Flames/Dark Tranquillity) each containing one 40+ minute song. The original Crimson is one of the most ground-breaking metal albums of the 90's.

I've been listening to Kataklysm quite a bit recently. Solid metal with definite hardcore influences.

Trivium is another band I'd recommend - very similar to Shadow's Fall and to a lesser extent Killswitch Engage (both of which are great bands as well)
