Is this a shameless self-plug, by any chance?
BTW, Ruins of The Humanity sound really good.

I listen to:

DarkTranquillity

Soilwork

In Flames

[Dark_Jester]

True, what was I thinking? She's more chaotic black metal...

 

[Harvester of Sorrow]

No one mentioned Vital Remains? fucking blaphemy

 

[Harvester of Sorrow]

They're not Melodic Death Metal simply because they have a few lines of melody in the new album...otherwise I would have surely mentioned them.

they had more than a "few lines of melody" they had at least 6
