I have only ever managed to enjoy two anime, Legend of the Galactic Heroes (for its reverence of history and portrayal of an epic and romantic age of heroes) and Serial Experiments Lain (themes on theology/society/communication and /x/-tier aesthetic, as well as a spot-on depiction of the spooky side of the internet.)
I have tried to watch others, but stopped for various reasons:
>Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood wasn't interesting at all, and just seemed like it was made by a 13 yo.
>Soul Eater had too much fanservice, and I don't care much for comedy anyway.
>Noragami was just generic and seemed like it was trying to be deeper than it was; the characters were also completely bland.
>Steins;Gate was a moderately entertaining use of time, with a well structured plot, but the otaku references were layered on too thick. The real reason I stopped watching it was the degenerate ladyboy softcore shit; I close my browser as soon as the subs read "I want to be a girl."

Is there anything else that I might like?

No offense, but none of these suggestions interest me. I guess I no longer watch anime.

this, all of these are on the same level as lain

if you haven't watched any of them at least try one episode. i am sure you will enjoy nge as it has similar themes and relatively no fan service.

Kino no Tabi
Mushishi
Ghost in the Shell

A pretty generic rec list for somebody looking for "serious" anime.

Texhnolyze
Paranoia Agent
Tatami Galaxy

I put this list together for a friend about half a year ago. You might be able to make use of it, seeing as you liked lain. The number is my suggested watch order. This person had already watched lots of western sci-fi.

1. Akira
2. Serial Experiments Lain
3. Ghost in the Shell (1995)
4. Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
5. Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG
6. Psycho Pass (2012)
7. Texhnolyze
8. Ergo Proxy
9. Planetes

you might like Elfen Lied or Canaan.

Durarara is pretty good, it has a good plot, it might be to comedic for you, but if you can overlook that than you should really appreciate the plot and art.
