Been a favorite of mine for many years now. Great band. New album is top notch, sometimes jaw-droppingly good. Not always in the mood for them, but they have consistently put out very good to great albums. The last 3 have been especially great.

There are few bands that have undergone such a dramatic change in sound and style over their years of playing.
Brave Murder Day is a landmark release in the death doom subgenre. Everything Mikael Akerfeldt touches seems to turn to gold. Also, Dance of December Souls is nothing to sneeze at.
I also enjoy the more alternative rock-tinged sound they have adopted since the 2000s, but it's like you're not even listening to the same band.

Haven't heard the new album yet but I was rocking The Great Cold Distance earlier this week.

I like it. The singer's best friend is Mikael Akerfeldt, which is how I discovered them. They have several fantastic albums:
Brave Murder Day
Last Fair Deal Gone Down
The Great Cold Distance

Honestly, most of the newer music I find myself in love with is coming from northern Europe:
Denmark:
Mew & Veto
Sweden:
Opeth, Meshuggah, and Katatonia
Icelend:
Sigur Ros & Amiina
Then you throw in Apparatjik, which is Denmark/Norway/Sweden/Scotland.

I would also recommend giving Enslaved a good listen. They are a former Norwegian black/viking/pagan metal band that have incorporated more and more progressive elements into their sound.

Read this thread earlier and had never heard of Katatonia. Have been listening to The Fall of Hearts all afternoon. Looking forward to checking out the rest of their stuff
