| Dark Tranquillity is my favorite melodeath band. Awesome stuff. But I love many others. |

| Arch Enemy has some but mix up other sounds.
In the christian realm, Immortal Souls is pretty good. |

Melodeath totally embiggens the genre. It's a cromulent word.
Anyway, I'm not real keen on what bands fall into the "Gothenberg sound", but if Shadows Fall fit into that category, I'll pick them. |

Trying to. And now with the twins, I'll have 2 more young minds to warp and add to our cause.
EDIT: I went to BNR Metal to investigate other bands that fall into the melodic death metal/Gothenberg category and I knew very few of the bands, so I'll stick with my vote of Shadows Fall.

| Carcass's Heartwork album gets labeled melodeath.
Sentenced.
Amorphis
Children of Bodom
Amon Amarth
Imsomnium
Mercenary
Soilwork
and the bands listed seem to be the most popular. |

Sentenced, Amorphis, and Mercenary are not melodeath. Haven't heard Amon Amarth or Insomnium, but are those more death metal? |

| We could argue styles all day but I don't want to. All of these get labeled melodeath by some. Meh.
AA and Insomnium would be fairly deathy. |

| It could be considered a parody, but like most styles there are the innovaters, the band wagon jumpers and those who come late to the party but sincerely love the sound. |

it happens with many metal styles
black metal
thrash
goth
nu - metal
death
gothenburg
when something new comes along the innvators sound new and refreshing yet when people come along and play similar music it becomes a case of same old same old |
