I thought you had already heard In Flames? They were one of the earliest Melodic Death metal bands, part of the pioneering bunch of Dark Tranquility, At The Gates, Carcass (you get what I'm saying).

Arch Enemy rulezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Arch Enemy were really good until they released Anthems Of Rebellion. The songwriting was pretty bad except for about 3 or 4 songs   I thought you liked some stuff off Doomsday Machine! It's all really good.

Yes, some of it, but half the album was boring as hell.

Seriously, there is a reason why most Arch Enemy fans just look the other way once you mention anything they did past 2001.
I've pretty much given up hope with them in terms of them releasing anything fresh sounding. Everything they release now just sound almost like In Flames and Dark Tranquility cover songs.

Yes but I don't know those bands either, Hairy... so what do they sound like?

Wow, that dude's posted just the once and has gone to the trouble of making a signature.

That is a champion effort, the fact that dude went to the trouble of even getting a sig for his post.

It's death metal with melodic guitar parts. You've heard Agalloch, that has elements of the "Gothenburg" Swedish metal sound in it. So like Katatonia... only Death Metal?

To some extent, yes.

Having said that, I've only heard the My Twin single and didn't like it.

It was the vocalist I didn't like on My Twin.

The second worst band from Sweden is Evergrey.  They're terrible!
