Some good CDs out in 2012, but nothing new has blown me away. I would say Leprous (2011) is the only new band that has blown my mind recently, and they are barely metal.

I listen to Dimmu, Nevermore, Fear Factory, etc. Heavy and melodic with good vocals. Any new band recommendations?
 
Some heavy bands that still have "melodicness"

Maybe you know these bands already but the bands you listed were pretty mainstream (as far as metal goes) and I know tons of people who have heard of fear factory but have never heard the bands I listed.


I try to be as open minded as possible when listening to music, for example I listen to periphery and anathema (their newer non-metal stuff) and also listen to dying fetus and aborted maybe you should try other styles of music as well? I just see no reason to be asking for only heavy+melodic music instead of the both extremes individually (sorry maybe I sound like a douche)
