There is no middle ground with you, is there? Explain why everything you listen to is meathead 'metal'.

Check out Without Grief good swedish metal and underrated from what I heard.

Hideous Infirmity · 06-12-2012, 06:50 AM

Don't like the genre of swedish melodic death. But there is 2 albums:
1. At the Gates - the red in the sky is ours
2. At the Gates - with fear I kiss the burning darkness

Awesomeness.

+9001

i'd also add some early Dark Tranquillity (later ones are also good, but i'm almost a fanboy so...). Eucharist are kinda ok. Intestine Baalism are pretty good iirc (it's been a while)

SluseTheInventor · 06-12-2012, 06:54 AM

Gates of Ishtar - A Bloodred Path

Mr-Shredz · 06-12-2012, 07:30 AM

In Flames- Clayman, Whoracle, Colony, TJR

At The Gates- All of them!

Soilwork- APP, FN5, NBC

Darkane- ES, LOL (lol)

Arch Enemy- AOR, BB, WOS

The Haunted- THMDI, OKW

I used to love this kind of genre, especially when I started learning guitar. Shame a lot of this bands turned into shocking pop acts now. Would love to hear some underground MDM now as I never bothered to find some after the mentioned bands turned into bringer of fags.

By the way this is my fav Melodic DM band these days:

Haven't enjoyed an album of this genre for a long time!

novareaper · 06-12-2012, 07:37 AM

their releases after this album suck doe

Gaybeard · 06-12-2012, 08:06 AM

Im not sure if The Chainheart Machine by Soilwork can be considered melodic death metal but I think its a fucking masterpiece.

+ 1998-2006 Amon Amarth

5 years ago I could add 10 more covers, but I am totally out of melo death now, and I don't even remember half of the stuff Ive been listening to back in those days.

If this is considered mdm then definitely one of my favorites. Always thought they were more bm.

entwinedwithsickness · 06-12-2012, 10:40 AM

Vinterland-Welcome My Last Chapter

More BM than DM but whatever. Its fucking great.

De Profoundis · 06-12-2012, 10:44 AM

Not a fan of this genre.

Honky Reduction · 06-12-2012, 10:52 AM

Thnx guys

Cloaca · 06-12-2012, 11:31 AM

Edge of Sanity - Crimson II is the only album in this style that's ever really had any lasting impression on me.

Chromaticity · 06-12-2012, 01:16 PM

1000 + on the Eucharist (amazing band) and We are The Nightmare mentions.

novareaper · 06-12-2012, 01:26 PM

that album was utterly insulting to me to be honest. after hearing this band play stuff like this

everything else they've done is just straight up unacceptable

THIS IS MY OPINION GUIZ
