Most of these are relatively melodic and draw influence from classical music as well as different metal genres. You should also check out some of their progressive forebears (and probably vastly more important groups):
Emerson, Lake and Palmer
Jethro Tull
Gentle Giant
King Crimson

The Symphony X was good, as was Queensryche. Still checking out the others. I liked Opeth until the vocalist kicked in. Thanks again for all the help bro, I appreciate it.

The one's mentioned in the above post are good, but are mainly strait up progressive metal. Agalloch has this post-metal relaxing kinda feel.
Give Bergtatt Et Eeventyr i 5 Capitler by Ulver a go as well. Again, it has more black metal parts, but it definitely comes close.
And both the albums i mentioned are nothing like traditional Black metal. A lot more melodic and easier to listen to.

Ulver were a good listen, thanks for that, however Drudkh didn't strike me as well.
