Harsh Power Metal/Melodic Death Metal

Tell you what, don't get shit like that played by men with no balls (CoB), and go get yourself some good 'melodic' death.

Go pick up theses:

Carcass - Heartwork
At The Gates - The Red In The Sky Is Ours and With Fear I Kiss The Burning Darkness
The Chasm - Deathcult For Eternity; The Triumph (somewhat)
 
Anything by At The Gates, Dark Tranquility, In Flames (except Reroute to Remain, Soundtrack to Your Escape, and Come Clarity), and maybe Painkiller by Judas Priest. But hopefully you didn't need me to tell you that.
 
I like Children of Bodom's first two albums. I also dig Wintersun, Ensiferum, Skyfire, and Norther. This genre is sort of a guilty pleasure for me.
