Melodic Scribes
The Best rap group ever, consisting of Ryebread, Pinan, Antimatter-Bonecrusher and D.J Mar Mar. Mar Mar drops sick beats while these cats twist tonges on intellectual subjects and create wicked rhymes.

"I can't stay within the lines or even hold a crayon right; pay no mind to road signs running every red light; you get frightened by wilderness, me I find it soothing; A man of improv stuck in a giant movie; My thumb is down, I get no substance from this town; somebody's givin them strings and they're all puppets now; Some get clowned because they're different; individualians pinned by this lame game syndicate; I'm into this thing called reality; where virtually every person on this earth baffles me; had the key to success snapped it off in the door knob; I'm happy in this mess and no I don't need your job; I break laws peacefully lots of beautiful nights; just to hear the man read my constitutional rights; roll the dice hope to find excitement in this board game; here's my 2 cents, maybe you can afford change. -Melodic Scribes (intro to "Society")\

Melodic Death Metal
A subgenre of death metal which itself is a subgenre of metal.

Melodic death metal is basically all the aggression and brutality of death metal, but will include melodic riffs, guitar harmonies, sung vocals as well as scream/roar vocals (which are also more inteligable than standard death metal vocals) and slower solo's that aren't always pure shred among other defining points.

Quite possibly THE best genre of metal.

Melodic death metal? Try In Flames, Arch Enemy, At the Gates, Dark Tranquility and Soilwork man.

That's some gooooood shit.

Melodic Death Metal
A musical sub genre of death metal, which in turn is also a sub genre of metal as a whole. It started during the early 90's, and began to really take off by the mid 90's, when many pioneering bands of the style would release some of their best work. Many credit Carcass as the band that invented this style, and various bands from Sweden (In Flames, Dark Tranquility, At the Gates) would be credited as pioneers of the "Gothenberg sound", which came to be dominant in the genre later on.

Melodic death metal can best be described as a mixture of the melody/progression from NWOBHM and thrash metal bands, and the sheer brutality of traditional death metal. Vocals are usually growled/shrieked, but clean vocals are used as well. Lots of guitar harmonies are used, along with aggressive riffs and drumming. There is even use of acoustic guitar as well. Sheer ass-kickery at it's finest!

In the early 2000's and more recent years, this style would greatly influence many American metalcore bands. The style has continued to develop in Europe as well.

In Flames, Dark Tranquility, At the Gates, Arch Enemy, Kalmah - all great melodic death metal bands!

Melodic Death Metal
Possibly one of the greatest Sub-Genres in all of Heavy Metal. It combines the brutality, low guitar and bass tunings, complex and fast drumming, guttural vocals (while usually higher pitched than in normal Death Metal) with focus more on melody and harmony more than brutality. Electric guitars typically have complex rhythm, structure and riffs to them and combine low riffing, palm muting and power chords with "mini-solo" like parts that involve higher notes and odd note groupings. The genre started in the early 90's and has spanned from there. Some great/notable bands including a song are:
Carcass: Heartwork
Arch Enemy: Bury Me An Angel
In Flames: Jester's Script Transfigured
Dark Tranquility: Punish My Heaven
At The Gates: The Swarm
Dethklok: Laser Cannon Deth Sentence
Children Of Bodom: Every Time I Die
Amon Amarth: War Of The Gods
The Duskfall: Shoot It In
Callenish Circle: Suffer My Disbelief

Hey wanna go see Arch Enemy? Michael Amott is the master of Melodic Death Metal!
Melodic Death Metal bands are so talented.
