Kalmah (all their albums are decent, but definitely check out Swamplord and The Black Waltz

despite being made up of members of my favorite bands, I just never really liked them. (but yea, The Black Waltz was always the best)

 

[Einherjar86]

Really? They're actually one of my favorite melodic death metal bands. Not sure what it is about them, but their vibe is so tribal. I fucking love it.

Anterior-This age of silence
Scariot-Deathforlorn
Falchion-Chronicles of the dead
Withering Surface-The nude ballet

Probably my fav melo-death band. Great mix of folk and classical influences. They get compared to CoB an awful lot but in my opinion are plenty better and without the nail polish. Also, the singer has a proper br00tal death metal growl which I likez

 

[Ross]

Skyfire

 

[Seditious]

Falchion-Chronicles of the dead
)

...the poor man's Ensiferum.

their new album was as much of a bore as the first one.

 

[Einherjar86]

Falchion are extremely similar to Ensiferum, but I actually didn't mind Legacy of Heathens. It had a few catchy songs.

But Chronicles of the Dead was horrible.
