Recommend them to me!

I like:
Excellent lyrics
Industrial
Symphonic metal
Classical instrumentation
Things which are "different" (whatever that means)
Operatic vocals performed by both males and females
Hard-edged guitar solos
Epic-level drumming
Electric ambiance

I'm not so fond of:
"Indie" - meaning three chords, speaking-in-tune singing, et cetera. For the most part "indie" music as a genre doesn't do it for me. Feel free to recommend independent music, though, if it's not that or especially if it fits any of the criteria in the first list.
Whiny vocals
Rap/hip-hop - I don't like condemning huge genres of music, but generally this is not what I'm looking for. Again, if you feel there is something exceptional, please drop names.

Please please please tell me about new things. I love finding new stuff to listen to, and I've got money to burn on my iTunes account.
