****ing Opeth, man.

I know someone's said it already, but ****ing Opeth.

And I'm not totally sure if this is just hard rock with some metal influences but System of A Down. Good ****, man.

Yeah man, Opeth, Lamb of God, Mastodon probably the best three, followed by Bodom and In Flames.

Someone named Kyuss but I'd hardly call them modern...

As for me, really been digging Boris and Baroness lately

Mastodon, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Opeth, Genghis Tron, Baroness, those are my favorites.

Edit: forgot Between The Buried And Me, they're great too.

Behemoth
Cattle Decapitation
Children of Bodom
In Flames
Dark Tranquillity
Nile
Suffocation
Disgorge
Noumena
Abigail Williams
Antestor
The Funeral Pyre
I Declare War
Amon Amarth
At the Gates
Zyklon
DevilDriver
Lamb of God
Cannibal Corpse
The Black Dahlia Murder
Dying Fetus
Soilwork
Scar Symmetry

I forgot about Soilent Green and Down.

I think Korn have done well and their new album is not all that bad, good live band

Mastodon, In Flames, Shadows Fall, Paradise Lost, Meshuggah

High on Fire ought to be in anyones top 5. As strong a 3 piece as there will ever be.

Defly. Like Motorhead on good drugs.
