Anyone wanna recommend some melodic death metal?

Slayer89 · 01-18-2008, 12:48 AM

So, I've been listening to In Flames, Dark Tranqillity, Amon Amarth, Mors Principium Est, and some other melo death bands, and I'm looking for some more. Anyone have any recommendations?

Cryhavoc \m/

Old sentenced too.

Wintersun and Equilibrium.

Trust me, check em out... the level of 'awesome' has been completely unparalleled in that type of metal in the past few years imo...

I was going to recommend Mors Principium Est, but you already have that on there.

Soilwork is one of my favorites. Natural Born Chaos is definitely an album by them to check out.

Scar Symmetry is not your typical melodic death metal, but they are, by far, my favorite in the genre - and one of my favorite bands ever.

Slayer89 · 01-18-2008, 01:14 AM

Thanks for the recommendations.

I'm listening to Cryhavoc right now. Bad ass stuff, I'm really digging it.

I know I may pick up some flack for this, but I've never really heard any Wintersun that really thrilled me. Maybe I need to give 'em another listen.

I already listen to Sentenced, Soilwork, and Scar Symmetry ... and I love 'em.

I recommend Without Grief.

DDDorian · 01-18-2008, 02:35 AM

Here's a bunch you might like. I'm not hugely into this style, but these are the bands that I find most interesting (or least offensive, whichever way you wanna look at it, heh):

Centinex - "Arrival Of The Spectrum Obscure" from the album Decadence - Prophecies Of Cosmic Chaos (2004)

Satariel - "Hogtied Angel" from the EP Chifra (2007)

Arsis - "The Face Of My Guilt" from the album A Celebration Of Guilt (2004)

The Absence - "Dead And Gone" from the album Riders Of The Plague (7007)

Vehemence - live performance of the title track to the album God Was Created (2002)

and, of course...

Carcass - title track to the album Heartwork (1993)

Enjoy!
