If you fancy listening to some darker stuff I'll link a couple bands. Not exactly doom but its the only ways to describe them.
Primordial are an Irish band that fuses elements of traditional Irish folk with doom and black metal. There's a lot of Maiden/Lizzy/Sabbath influence in their stuff, they're not exactly new but they're one of the few post 80s metal bands I can really recommend as they're void of all the super manly brutal clichés some new forms of metal are stuck in. Their lyrics are pretty cryptic and poetic as well.
This first one is a more upbeat but rhythmic number, it doesn't get very fast and stays around abouts the same tempo throughout, but the vocals and the drums are killer.
This 2nd one here is a trickster, it starts off as a soft dirge but escalates, quickly of course, into epic.
This last one from Primordial is an absolute stomper track, with a haunting intro the guitars then kick in and it grips its hands round your throat. Hell yeah.
There's another band from Ireland who are similar but yet very different by the name of "Mael Mordha" they don't have as many albums or as much a reputation as Primordial but they're killer stuff anyways!
This first from Mael mordha is a slightly more upbeat and "epic" feeling song but has that dark sombre feel still
this one here is just heavy, dark, atmospheric, yeah it has a lot of presence then suddenly BOOM!
I cannot say too much to describe this one, its just, a hell yeah type of song even for the "doom" sound.
I'll recommend you some more bands later once I've watched some animu!
LET THE HAMMER FALL
These three tracks are meant to flow into one another. While they may not be GRRR METAL, I still love how this album as a whole and how it ends (which are these three tracks).
Here is a normal track for them in recent years for comparison (not embedding it because the album cover may be too much for this forum):
NACHTMYSTIUM - Ghost Of Grace - YouTube
Okay, looking for less screaming more badass guitar playing now.
Well, it's a bit softer:
Also by TKN; if you don't like either this or the first one I posted, you won't find any TKN you do like.
EDIT: The tacks I posted in the last one don't scream, but they are more atmospheric, so they don't go nuts with the guitar either.
Okay, a metal song with good guitar playing and no screaming:

For those of you looking for another energetic metal track:
I don't listen to much metal, but I like this song a lot. DK showed it to me many moons ago.
Well since you want sweet guitar playing here you go:
Rodrigo Y Gabriella cover of Metallica's Orion - YouTube
Rodrigo Y Gabriela - Stairway to heaven - YouTube
