Here's some accessible ones (Spotify links):

• Primordial - Empire Falls
• Ghost Brigade - Suffocated
• Leprous - The Flood
• *shels - Butterfly (on Luci's Way)
• Sólstafir - Necrologue
• Sleep Token - The Summoning
• Saor - Monadh
• Amon Amarth - Twilight of the Thunder God

And some slightly less accessible ones (Also Spotify links):

• Alter of Plagues - Found, Oval and Final
• Behemoth - Messe Noire
• The Angelic Process - Burning in the a Undertow of God
• Ihsahn - Arcana Imperii
• Bell Witch - Beneath the Mask
• or if you're feeling brave enough to listen to a single, album length sludge/doom track, Bell Witch - Mirror Reaper

I will also strongly second the already recommend Chelsea Wolfe, Opeth, Alcest, Orbit Culture and 3TEETH!
