Hey, I'm trying to expand the number of great melodic metal bands out there, and I'm just wondering if you guys can help me, some of my favorite bands include... VEHEMENCE!, Iced Earth, In Flames, FALL OF EMPYREAN!, Vital Remains (I heard a few songs off of Dechristianize that kicked ass), Iron Maiden, Dream Theater, Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, Cradle of Filth is great!, Death, and not to mention... old Metallica.

Could you guys give me some ideas on some good bands I would probably like?
 
The Implicate Order
Maudlin Of The Well
Infernal Method
Grenade
Alarum
Oratory
Thales
Callenish Circle

thats all i can think of at the moment.
 
Darkane,
Soilwork,
Callenish Circle(I can easily picture these guys saying: "Now I want some of that old school circle pit shit, right the fuck right now.",
Scarve(Darkane meets SYL on crack),
Gardenian(most underated Swedish band around),
Nostromo(Very pissed off Thrash from Switzerland. Darkane meets a not so grindy Nasum).

Nevermore, is a pretty bad ass band.They have this progressive razor hard hitting sound that you can feel. The vocals might sound to dramatic, but I rather see their singer than most trying to pull off those types of vocals.
