I know we have some Katatonia fans here. This may, or may not, interest you. Similar style of playing.
Wombripper is now my favorite Russian band. Their newest, while not better than the previous, was enough to give them the nod.
I'm such a dork. Sacha Dunable from Intronaut posted that he was selling a bunch of shit he doesn't need anymore, so I bought a pedal from him that I fundamentally don't need because I like the story.
An Earthquaker Arpanoid. I'm happy with my distortion setup currently, so it was one of the only pedals he listed that was some sort of modulation. It'll be fun to fuck with, but I highly doubt I would ever use it live or in a recording.
