All of these ones are absolutely great. Listen to this guy.

Scar Symmetry - Symmetric in Design, Pitch Black Progress.

Kinda melodic death with low growls, screams, and amazing clean vocals.
Solos are great too.

 

[Einherjar86]

If you like COB, check out Norther. I personally think Death Unlimited is their best album.

Other good melodic metal is Borknagar and Amorphis.

Good Borknagar albums: The Olden Domain, The Archaic Course, Quintessence, Empiricism
Good Amorphis albums: Tales From the Thousand Lakes, Elegy, Eclipse, Silent Waters (many will also say The Karelian Isthmus, which is a good album; it's more straight line death metal, whereas after that album they went in a more melodic direction)

Also try Swamplord, They Will Return, and Swampsong by Kalmah.

You really can't go wrong with any of the above recommendations. As most of those are essentials!

However, I thought I would throw out a new band you might enjoy. They combine a few of the bands you like as well as some of the aforementioned recommendations. The band is Epicurean. Take a listen:

Great band, but I'm not sure that he'd like it, based on the artists he gave us.

If he listens to Sabbath and Rainbow, he'll find something to like in Symphony X.

 

[Rhombus]

The Absence - Riders Of The Plague, From Your Grave
Amon Amarth - Fate Of Norns
Blaze(anything by them will do)
Carcass - Heartwork
Arsis - United in Regret
Dissection - Reinkaos (Melodic Death, the others are melodic black, if you want it: The Somberlain, Storm Of The Light's Bane)

 

[Seditious]

Blaze(anything by them will do)

Blood and Belief and Tenth Dimension are the best.
