I think In Flames is a pretty good band, but im turning into a power metal fan so Im not looking to much into In Flames anymore..

your sig kinda gave that away

The Jester Race and Whoracle are pretty much power metal with raspy vocals(great albums BTW). Actually their old guitarist glenn on these albums was in a power metal band which is very obvious.

Colony is a great album but you can tell the band is starting to change. Colony,Clayman have a more modern poppy sound, where the old ones are more traditional melodic power metal with folk elements. Clayman especially has an 80's vibe.

I know the band was labelled melo-death which is a term i'm not big on. I have the jester race,whoracle,colony and clayman and have never once thought to myself this kinda sounds like death metal.


Arch Enemy is another example of not being death metal, but people still throw the term at them.

I like Soundtrack to your Escape. I have fun listening to it. When I first realized this, I wondered "Do I have shitty taste in music?" Yes I probably do. However, who gives a fuck.

For some reason I can't seem to get into to much of their stuff, new or old. Maybe just not enough listens yet.

colony is my favorite

I'm sorry to hear that.

their new things are too modern and therefore technical ar something... But I remember times, when I had "Only For The Weak" in my mind all the day... It was just horrible, I couldn't get rid of that melody...

I am afraid to listen to it these days...

in terms of image and lyrical content Arch Enemy is death metal, just very melodic in terms of sound.

 

[Young Unknown]

on their new cd they take a more old times direction, so i thought fans would just appreciate it more then Reroute or Soundtrack!

 

[BigJim]

Thankyou

No worries, man! I'm so fucking sick of defending this band! Who gives a shit whether it's 'death metal' or 'melodic metal' or 'melodic death' or fuckin' pop?!?! I can't stand cunts who need to label shit before they can to listen to it! These cunts call themselves metal?! FUCK OFF!!!
