There must be a few beyond these, no?

"The Thing that Should Not Be," "Call of Ktulu" by Metallica

"Psychonaut" by Fields of the Nephilim

(Alex if you've never heard Cacophony by Rudimentary Peni, it has my highest recommendation)

each of the Cryo Chamber collaboration's five albums is inspired by a different elder god

(supposedly. I've only heard Azathoth and it just sounds like typical dark ambient to me. I wonder if a Lovecraft superfan could listen to all of their albums and match them up to the correct gods in a blind test):

Metallica are still writing about Cthulhu.

Some songs by Morbid Angel and Root.

Probably the band HP Lovecraft.

I think The Ziggurat were consistently about the Cthulhu mythos.
