I need some new Melodic Metal

[AblazeEagle]

When I write melodic metal most of you probably think Power-metal.

I'm into all the genres. Anyhoo, the main genres I'm looking for would be:

Melodic Death Metal.
Melodic Black Metal.
Melodic Doom Metal.
Melodic Dark Metal.
Progressive Melodic Metal.


Any recommendations?

 

[The Ozzman]

In before move to Recs forum

Eucharist.

 

[AblazeEagle]

I'll try it out - keep it coming.

What bands do you know already?

Without that knowledge, I'd say:

Equilibrium
Amon Amarth
Norther
Moonsorrow
Bal-Sagoth
Kiuas (power metal, but cool stuff)

I'll leave it at that for now. There's a ton of stuff, but I don't know how much of it you've heard.

Aright, since I dunno what you're into...
In Flames
Dark Tranquility
At The Gates
Amon Amarth
Dissection
Catamenia
Wintersun
Paths of Possession
and you might like some folk metal like Eluveitie

oh, and...
CHANGE YOUR FUCKING SIG!

Thank you. Much better. Sorry for e-yelling.

Amorphis is a good call. Also, Kataklysm, Running Wild, later Kreator. Sinergy, Kalmah, Norther

All I have to suggest that someone haven't already is And Oceans. I guess they count as melodic black metal. Get their album "The Symmetry of I - The Circle of O", you won't regret it.

 

[El Tigre]

Agathodaimon - best meloblack i've ever heard

 

[AblazeEagle]

Thanks a bunch, I'll listen to the bands when I get the time for it.

 

[Disciple of Bodom]

Children Of Bodom

 

[Lord Kur]

lifelover i consider melodic black pop metal

check out "pulver" by them and since i'm sure you will like that, also get "erotik" (2007)


that's their only two full lengths but if you like depressive melodic black metal with melancholic pop influences you can't go wrong!

Leviathan - The Blind Wound
