Gordian Knot, Spastik Ink, Behold the Arctopus, Dysrhythmia..are some of my favorites. Also, I played in Canvas Solaris (We had a few well received Instrumental releases) and I am currently in The Universe Divide (Link in my signature) which is also instrumental.
Respect, Canvas Solaris is great and there's some seriously awesome stuff in those albums!![]()
Halcyon.
It's just one dude. He writes the music, plays all the instruments, and produces it himself. You can download his entire album from his bandcamp and it's pretty damn awesome.

Actually it appears to cost money now, but still. Awesome stuff.
EDIT: Actually I'm pretty sure that dude posts on here.
Classical music had 100% more brutal than anything around nowadays. They didn't need gimmick tunings to achieve it either. (low tuning 'increasing heaviness' is gimmick in my mind, alternate tunings for different purposes are cool though)
