I want to know if there is any band which is similar to old Kataklysm (Sylvain Houde era)? I mean both musically and lyrically. Please don't recommend some crap bands like Cephalectomy. I like only bands which are serious in what they are doing. I am not looking for some clone bands but for ones which are inspired with old Kataklysm (Sorcery, Temple... or Mystical Gate...), but are in the same time original, if you understand what I mean.
For examle, Watain and Dissection. Watain are obviously inspired by Dissection, but they are not cloning that band.

What makes you think Cephalectomy aren't serious? They're far, far better than Kataklysm ever were IMO.

Serious? Come on, just look at their picture on their MA page. Is that how look a serious artist?

Don't judge the book by it's cover.

You could frankly say the same thing about a band like Mercyful Fate...
