I think this is considered prog metal, not sure. But the band Animals as Companions. I think they are fucking awesome. Combat Cartography (iirc) is a awesome track check out.

I'm not into rock/metal enough to know all the genres that well, but alot of the heavier stuff has singers that just ruin it for me. Animals deals with that in Mt favorite way, no singer.

I love Jesters Dance by In Flames, but that seems to be one of the few they have without singing.

You might be thinking of Animals as Leaders, I can't find anything about Animals as Companions. And you're right, they're definitely prog metal. Super intricate riffing and bizarro time signatures. It's a good time! I'm not familiar enough with them to know what song you're talking about, but they're a very unique group.

Lol yes leaders. Irl animals are usually companions and I just mess that up in my head.

If you're into the vibe but not the singers, you might like And So I Watch You From Afar, Earth, Pomegranate Tiger, Plini, Polyphia, The Algorithm, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, If These Trees Could Talk, Pelican, and Polarization. All instrumental metal/rock at different levels of heavy.

That's kind of a long list but I hope you find something in it 😅

Well plini I have liked for some time. He recently dropped a track with the guy from Animals as Leaders, Tosin Abasi. It's pretty good. Thanks for that list tho I enjoy having new shit to lookup on spotify.

And to anyone reading this who read my first comment,it's Animals as LEADERS and the song I mentioned is Conflict Cartography.
