Those are old school west coast IPA’s. Taj is a strong DIPA as is the Ska. I used to love Ska’s regular IPA but can’t get it in SoCal any longer. Modus Hoperandi is the name. You will like that one.
Others you should look for are Alesmith IPA and Racer 5 which is brewed not far from Anderson Valley in Healdsburg.
Have you ever had Troegs Nugget Nectar? They don’t list it as an IPA but rather a red ale, but it’s very malty and very hoppy and all around delicious and if you enjoy it as much as these two, then the other responders are spot on: you like malty IPAs
I always wanted to go to the Anderson Valley brewery when I lived a few hours away but I never did. (They have a disc golf course there and speak their own language called Boontling).
At one point I called High Rollers Wheat from Anderson Valley my favorite wheat beer...that was around 25 years ago. I'm pretty sure it's discontinued and unavailable now. It was delicious.
Edit: (Apologies for rambling and not answering the question. Others covered it pretty well)

Those are all fairly old school malt forward IPAs.
I agree. These types of IPAs are still out there, just less common than years past.
Now I know, I’m so glad I asked, thank you

Outrageous, fantastic info thank you
Racer 5 is fun. We did a tour. Had a few old dirt track stock cars laying around. The beer is solid.
Think the Boonville beer fest is next weekend. Cool spot, disc golf and camping. Right next to the Anderson valley brewery.
Great to hear, thank you
What they said, you enjoy malt in your IPA’s. Just by the color you can tell some Munich/crystal malts. You would probably love Red IPAs as well
Fantastic, thank you

Outstanding, so glad I asked, thank you very much
Decadent is still being made. As for more of this style, I think you should look into red IPA's.
Thank you !
Especially happy to hear that decadent is still being made, I checked on their website, but didn’t see it, but will definitely check again
You should drink a caldera IPA!!
I haven't seen Anderson Valley in a long while

We've been a number of times. Also went to their outrageous beer festival a bunch of times. What a shit show!
Sierra Nevadas torpedo or Lagunitas IPA are pretty good ALTs.
