By the mid 2000s Goth shit was in full swing and found its perfect match by blending Goth and Hard rock, why they switched to techno is beyond me because this song fucking rocks.

Tiamat - Cain.


While the US had goths germany had vampires and the vampires had Blutengel.

Blutengel - Reich Mir Die Hand.

 
This one is pretty obscure, you might not have heard it before.

Goth was already in full swing by the late 80s. Where are you?
11:50 is peak 2000s, most of Mer De Noms is a nice representation of the actual 2000s sound compared to a lot of modern shoegaze dogshit. What made 2000s rock beloved was it's prominent vocals and instrumentals, they were never really drowned out by retarded distortion.

Chevelle is also a great representation, they drew influence from HELMET (an underrated 90s band)

All of WWE during the era also offered an amazing selection of hits from all genres.
Waiting - Not Forgotten

One Armed Scissor (DON'T LISTEN TO WHILE DRIVING)

Killed By An Angel

Dance Gavin Dance (2006 demos) try 3:30 if you can't get into the vocals, God tier instrumentals and they seem to know since they've released instrumentals of a lot of their albums

Paris In Flames

Time Consumer (Easily the best Coheed intro)

Futures

Love On The Catwalk (Her Words Kill overall even though the 2nd singer can't sing for shit, lovely instruments and beautiful voice from Luke Pickett)

F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. (Early The Fall Of Troy overall) band was also known as 30 Years War

What I notice is that a lot of singers back then weren't very concerned about how their voices sounded even if it seemed corny, they weren't trying too hard to become the next big thing either. They sang and played. Very comfy. I miss this era when companies could get the rights to use such recent (at the time) bangers. Nowadays it seems like the eternal 80s loop until copyright wears off... I mean most of our music tastes were THANKS TO stuff like this back then. Now I can't imagine younger people finding a band they love in the same impactful way, there's YouTube I guess but it doesn't feel the same compared to searching for a cool thing you heard on a game and the radio/tv.

80s was origin goth mid 00s was the next generation goth that gave way to the (retches) scene kids.... And yeah the old WWE games had loads of good music from the b/c list groups of the 2000s for sure. That's how I was introduced to Bloodsimple, Dead man walking wasn't a half bad tune at all. And now that you mention it there really were a lot of singers back then who weren't amazing yet they just wanted to put their art out there, Respect. Mad respect. We need more balls integrity and passion like that in the entertainment industry today.
 
I set my VPN to Canada to hear these again but I remember this band from Smallville back in the day.
 
Pretty much any and all post-hardcore, the kind they made right before it turned into emo. ESPECIALLY At the Drive-In they should've been been a household name
Breaking the Back by Million Dead, a band that basically tried to be At the Drive-In 2
