Yess, Ride Majestic would be my favourite too. Couldn't get into Iotunn or Majesties

you seem to be quite concerned with these genre tags though, you might wanna ease up on that stance, should find it refreshing. as for TRM, it's absolutely their best, but that wasn't your question was it. 2015 isn't recently anymore

"Yess, Ride Majestic would be my favourite too. Couldn't get into Iotunn or Majesties"



I think the issue with Majesties is the mix, it's weird, like muffled or something, nothing sounds crisp. Iotunn is a hit or miss I guess.

I use the tags to fit all this different music in my mind, it's like an OCD thing bro, let me be!

And yeah, you're correct, 2015 was a decade ago FFS! I find Verkligheten to be better tho, especially the limited edition that had those cool extra songs.

ok fair enough, you do you mate

verkligheten is cool, and you can like it more, but no way is it better than TRM by any metric

Imperial Circus Dead Decadence released one of the best albums in the genre in recent years, just a reminder.

That is a super pretentious band name. Feel like I checked out a song or two a while back though but dont remember it. I think I checked it because someone compared it to wintersun saying they were better. But I do hate anything with circus in the name especially being 4+ words lol

They are symphonic melodic death/power metal so it's an understandable comparison Eak but they sound way different imo. A lot more intense and technical. I'd say they're closer to TBDM and Inferi even

Insomnium is at the very least top 5 for me. Definitely the most consistent melodeath band of all time though.

Insomnium are very good, I would probably agree with you on that one.



This is a relatively enjoyable and fun listen.

Tbh insomnium do have some snoozers but overall they're a good band. The newest one was kinda cool but I do like their first few better than anything else they've done
