I was trying to make an ...And Oceans related joke, implying that a Coma and resulting World Amnesia was the reason why we had forgotten to recommend them.
!!!CPAOI!!!:
I'm a neophyte in terms of metal, but I've become hopelessly addicted to a few bands (Opeth, Agalloch, Boris, and Mastodon to name a few) and I'm looking to expland my horizons a little bit. I figure as I've got a vague idea of where to go from here with DM, BM, doom and sludge and it would be a good idea to ask for a recommendation for a place to start with gothic metal. I haven't heard anything but I've read up on it a bit and I'm intrigued by the beauty/beast vocal duality. I'll consider anything but Nightwish (which I'm not dissing but I'm not entirely sure I've got the proper frame of reference to get into the symphonic stuff yet). Thanks in advance.

Well, if you're talking about the female vocal kind of stuff, then I guess you should be looking at Leave's Eyes, Epica, OLDER Lacuna Coil, anything with Arjen Lucassen's name on it (particularly Stream of Passion, but also Star One and Ayreon), Chalice.
Although maybe not what you're looking for, my strongest recommendation goes to KATATONIA. It's male vocals, but they're one of my favourite bands of recent times and they make incredible doomish gothic metal with fantastic atmospere. Their latest album "The Great Cold Distance" is an absolute cracker
