Idk man up until TSD they sounded more like a band trying to rip off Left Hand Path and Necroticism to me



SotS doesn't age as well as a lot of other Swedish dm, or even melodeath, but when it first came out it was a game changer.

Absolutely nothing like Left Hand Path or Necroticism at all though, they play weird/experimental/progressive/melodic ripping death

i think you need to relisten

I'm listening to TRITSIO right now... doesn't sound anything like Dark Tranquility, In Flames, Heartwork, this album, Autumn Leaves, Soilwork, or anything else I would classify as melodeath. Just sounds like slightly more melodic Entombed to me.

Gothenberg over-melodeath doesn't mean all melodeath

lol yeah but it was kinda the main crux of his definition

but basically just because it doesn't sound the same as those albums doesn't mean it's not melodeath, especially when just saying those early ATG albums just sound like a slightly more melodic Entombed is completely off-base
