Well, I've seen lots of lists here and I have to say, a noticeable percentage of these lists are great references for anyone interested in music, but I noticed that something new was missing.

What…

1.Ahab - Starting with The Giant, post-metal elements were added.

2.After Forever - With Floor Jansen being the catalyst here, the dutch band flourished after 1997, only to undergo another shift with the departure of Mark Jansen in 2002 and losing much of their gothic sound and adding progressive music to their symphonic charade.

3.Amoral - Death metal becomes rock.

4.Arcturus - Now everyone knows Garm-era Arcturus was more of a black metal band, don't they?

5.A Storm Of Light - Figured trendy post-metal wouldn't do justice to their talent and went more bombastic.
