No Obvious Flaws



I really like At the Gates, especially Slaughter of the Souls and thought I'd check out some other Melodic Death Metal bands similar to them (according to Spotify).

Are they all terrible?

Dark Tranquillity, Hypocrisy, Edge of Sanity - all not to my taste.

I like Amon Amarth, but is all Swedish/Swedish inspired death metal bad?

Please educate me while I listen to D-Beat and get really angry :)

[edit] SNIPE! Listen to Anti Cimex.

There's not much to educate you about, because yes, it's all bad.

I'm curious what Edge of Sanity you listened to but yeah melodeath is a pretty trash subgenre in my opinion. Some people swear by Insomnium.

It's pretty good, but it's not melodic death metal. But yeah OK it is "Swedish/Swedish inspired death metal". OP, check out Dismember, Grave, Entombed and that one band whose name I keep forgetting (God Macabre I think)

Oh I totally missed the "all Swedish death metal" part. Classic Swedeath is one of my favorite things so if you like Entombed, Dismember and Grave consider checking out the following:

Wombbath
Utumno
Afflicted
Necrophobic
Liers in Wait
Carnage
Nirvana 2002
God Macabre
Seance
Runemagick
Bloodstone
Carbonized
Unleashed
Moondark
Repugnant

Grotesque
Vomitory

Swedish death metal is not the same as Gothenburg metal (which is Swedish melodeath). It's famous for heavily downtuned, groove-laden riffs and maxed-out HM-2 distortion.

Actual Swedish DM: Entombed, Entrails, Dismember, Grave, Bloodbath, Centinex, Vomitory.

If you like that sound, you'll probably like Gatecreeper too.

More swedeath. I can't believe no one has mentioned Lik yet. Straight up SotS-era AtG worship in a lot of their songs.

This also rules. The best part about a lot of these albums is the cover artist is someone who does professional art on candy and snack packages lol.

Yeah Lich King replaced them but they put on a killer set. Plus they’re just a ton of fun.

MDF is so good at getting bands that don’t really make music anymore but are classics in the genre, it’s a bummer when the visa stuff falls through.

I don't remember if we ever talked about this, but Thronehammer dropped their debut album earlier this month and I just came across it in my backlog. Absolutely killer sludgy doom, doesn't feel even close to it's over an hour and 15 runtime.
