- Celtic Frost - Into The Pandemonium (1987) It’s a real toss-up between 1985’s To Mega Therion and Into The Pandemonium as to which Celtic Frost full-length put more orchestration on display – and that’s if either could even be considered full-on symphonic metal, given the left-field implementation of horns, woodwind and choral voices.
- Nightwish - Endless Forms Most Beautiful (2015) While the Finnish band were already among the elite of symphonic metal, Endless Forms Most Beautiful really raised the bar for the genre.
- Cradle Of Filth - Dusk… And Her Embrace (1996) One of Cradle Of Filth’s crucial innovations was the refinement of black metal keyboards, escorting the instrument from its background role as wall of atmospheric noise to its own star in a lush erotic horror soundtrack.
- Within Temptation - The Silent Force (2004) Although you’re likely to be distracted by the captivating strength of Sharon den Adel’s upfront vocal dynamism, Within Temptation’s symphonic aspirations reached their most querulously romantic apex on this goosebump-inducing masterwork of the form.
