Farmakon draw comparisons with Opeth, although they introduce a more funky approach to proceedings.
I know it's a departure from Opeth, but you can't beat Isis for atmospheric prog metal. Other bands that may interest you are Pelican and Red Sparowes. Both are instrumental with the latter probably leaning more towards prog rock than prog metal, but the atmosphere that Red Sparowes garners is awesome.

Spiral Architect are awesome.
I'm not so sure for atmosphere though.
They even got Sean Malone to play stick on one of their songs.

Morte Macabre - isn't exactly metal but definitely atmospheric and incredibly dark.
