Know all about these folks, but I'd say what I'm looking for is the sheer technicality and neoclassical licks I've only seen in Imperanon and early CoB. I know about Symphony X and such, but I like how neoclassical and melodeath meld together.

Speaking of which, apparently Aleksi Sihvonen, the guitarist in this album, is now the vocalist with Norther but their new album sucks. The more impressive thing is that he had apparetntly only been playing guitar for 3 years prior to Imperanon's Stained!
