| I love In Flames Lunar Strain and Dark Tranqullity's Skydancer, 2 first melodeath albums. I prefer that sound over "modern" melodeath. Can someone recomend me some good albums/bands that played that type of metal? |

 Heavier than "typical" Swedish melodeath, but it's an essential album IMO. It's not as progressive as their later works either. ------------- Check out my YouTube channel! http://www.youtube.com/user/demiseoftime" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/user/demiseoftime |

The debut from Necrophobic is rather raw blackened melodic death metal. A classic in the genre:

Unanimated is another of the more obscure melodic death metal acts from Sweden. I�m mostly familiar with the debut album "In the Forest of the Dreaming Dead":

I�d recommend Amon Amarth too if you like melodic death metal. ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |
