Suggest Some Good Melodic Metal For Me To Listen To...

[Freddy Krueger]

Alright, I finally have broadband... So I was hoping some people around here could suggest some good bands for me to listen to. I love melodic music like In Flames, Soilwork, Children of Bodom, Skyfire, Omnium Gatherum and a few others... So if anyone knows of some badass bands I should check out, post em here.

Thanks.

Sonata Arctica is a particularly good choice, try the album "Silence." I think you'd like Borknagar as well, preferably "Quintessence."

Dissection

Not really of a Melodic style.
