"As usual, no love for Lunarsea or Enshine:["

Enshine is great, their new album has been rotating into my playlists pretty frequently since it came out. Fantastic atmosphere and melody.

both bands are really solid, but nothing amazing. Ianus by Lunarsea is such an awesome song tho. if you like Lunarsea, and bands like Quo Vadis or early Arsis, but with a bit of more focus on awesome melodic riffs than on technicality, you have to check Archons.

Desultory and Uncanny - they're more like regular Swedish dm with melodic edge.

Garden of Shadows seems really good, I guess I haven't heard them before.



Another melodeath band I just remembered worth checking is Meadows End

Garden of Shadows is GOAT. autumn leaves, intestine baalism, arghoslent, gates of ishtar, unnanimated... all wonderful mdm, jut off the top of my head. I could make a list tomorrow actually, melodeath is an old love of mine

Man NONE of those bands you listed hit the spot for me. Except Gates of Ishtar cause I haven't heard them yet, will check.



I think I've got some kind of mental block against going really crazy for MDM. Have never 5ed an album in the genre. Above the Weeping World is the closest MDM has come to gut-punching me in the feels. I hope something (in the genre) tops that for me some day.

Nah man. Killjoy and Last Statement bring the feels. That's just it with me and melodeath, it's fun to listen to, exhilarating occasionally, but hardly ever very emotionally impactful.



Countless Skies is an amazing track, gets me fired up but it just doesn't connect with me on that deeper level. Almost no melodeath does.



I love how he's trying to sound so sophisticated too, unremarkable my dear Watson lol.

I agree tbh as much as i love melodeath It doesn't ever affect me quite as much as other genres can, there's just something holding it back for some reason maybe its because it can be slightly formulaic, predictable and restrained? idk

Balls knows.



Doom, DSBM, atmo-bm, and prog that leans passionate (as opposed to technical wank) is the stuff that gets to me.



It's probably a good thing that melodeath doesn't though. Would get sick of listening to stuff that's trying to attack my feels ALL the time!
