Here is some early melodic death metal.

Cemetary from the Swedish scene in the early 90s.



Dismember from the early 90s.



Sentenced formed 1989

This needs more Necrophagist and Kalmah, probably should add Carcass and Arch Enemy too. I know heaps more but can't think of them atm.

I really only like the song They Will Return.

Necrophagist is hardly melodic. Unless you mean the song Diminished To B.









And the only other band I think that can pull off keyboards
Other than Nocturnus.

Australian melodic death metal.

It's not at all gothenburg, which people think is the same as melodeath

This has more of the orchestral/epic/doomsday feel to it, which is awesome.

theres a new HSB album on the go.
not quite sure if you should still call it melodeath but we will see. combat sounds nice

Fixed your video.

Guys, you should all compile a list of artists for me to add to the Toribash Artist Database. I consider myself a somewhat knowledgeable metal head but then you guys start posting bands I've never heard of and I start to learn again, so yeah make some additions in the Database thread.
