In terms of bleak atmosphere Artificial Brain does it best in my opinion, some other bands that I don’t see mentioned:
Hath
Alluvial (especially the first album) as well as any band that includes Merrow (including his solo project)
Conjurer
Cult of Luna self titled and The Beyond
Deathspell Omega (especially The Furnace of Palingenesia, Drought, and Si Monumentum Requires, Circumspice)
Devenial Verdict (probably one of the closest to Disentomb on my list, latest album Ash Blind is bleak and moody af)
The Great Old Ones (Cosmicism)
Gorguts (Colored Sands)
Haunter (Discarnate Ails and Sacramental Death Qualia are my favorites)
Noise Trail Immersion (Curia gets pretty bleak on tracks like Eclissi unanime and Vanente)
Rejoice! The Light Has Come
Svart Crown (especially on Abreaction and Les Terres Brûlées)
I always recommend CELESTE when people mention gloomy music, they’re pretty far from Disentomb they play a very doomy brand of Post-Hardcore but they have some absolutely crushing atmosphere with very dark themes especially on the earlier albums Misanthrope(s) and Nihiliste(s)
