Melodic Death Metal

Melo-Death
and Melodic Death are the same thing...right?

See I think melo-death are the new bands coming out that mix metalcore with melodic death...I prefer NWOSDM and bands that follow that sound

 

[ohiogrinder]

I don't see a difference.

a little off-topic, but do you people consider Tiamat death metal or black metal or gothic metal?

Yes

 

[Perdition's Light]

no

 

[Koude Haat]

Omnium Gatherum - Spirits And August Light

one of my favorite melodic dm albums.

We had this argument in another thread. The former term is more commonly used to describe Gothenburg type sound as opposed to the latter which tends to be used to describe death metal that is also melodic.

Melodeath and melodic death metal are definitely not the same thing.

Noumena

Pretty cool stuff there. Well, I couldn't listen to the 2nd one.

I have explained this COUNTLESS MOTHERFUCKING TIMES on this forum...go look for my explanation in the rec forum (in the melo-death thread there). For purposes of this thread I have lumped them together.

at first black metal, then blackened death metal , then progressive-doom now gothic rock

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

The only Melo-death that doesn't craddle me off to slumber in Amon Amarth.

 

[Skepticism]

You clearly need to get to know some actual good melodic death then. Sorrow Throughout the Nine Worlds and Once Sent From The Golden Hall would be a good start if you already like Amon Amarth, considering their new shit isn't that good.

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

Bah, they take it too far with genre classification sometimes. If Melodoc Death Metal were so different from Melo-Death then I think they should just call it something else.

 

[Mort Divine]

You're an idiot.

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

You're an idiot.

You're fucking stupid.

 

[Volve]

Dark Tranquillity

Somewhere between doom and death:
Amorphis
Swallow the Sun
Insomnium

I love Amorphis and Dark Tranquillity the most.

 

[Salamointi]

Don't insult each other if you want to know all about metal here is a movie about it "METAL:A headbanger's Journey"

 

[General Zaroff]

As for Gothenburg styled Melo-Death, At The Gates-SOTS is by far the best album I've heard in the genre with In Flames-The Jester Race a close second.

The other style of MDM I would say Edge Of Sanity-Purgatory Afterglow is my fav if you consider it MDM.

Dark Tranquillity-Character and The Gallery and The Absence-From Your Grave and Riders Of The Plague also deserve a mention.
