Sorry for the wordy title but it was the best way I could put it without making it sound like clickbait. Basically just curious about bands that stand out from the genre they play in by having deep/dense lyrics. For example a hardcore / punk band having pages upon pages of lyrics, because that's a genre that's usually about heavy instrumentals with maybe a dozen lines of lyrics. Something interesting like that.

silent planet is a great example of this in the metalcore scene. their lyrics get intensely philosophical at times in a genre where lyricism often takes a backseat to riffy and rhythmic guitar work. highly recommend the songs “Depths II” from the album “The Night God Slept” and “Inherit the Earth” from the album “Everything Was Sound”.
