I'm into alot of styles, but for death metal I'm more of an oldschool Florida/technical fan. I personally don't group Melodic Death bands with the "Death metal" genre, because I think when speaking of "death metal" people shall be referring to thrashy, brutal, gore etc. more extreme...less melodic type stuff. But Melodic Death is one hell of genre that I love.
