some people would rather put soilwork into melodic death, although i personally dont like this whole new mdm scene, old arch enemy, old inflames, DT, hypocrisy, at the gates ftw !!
what do you mean by neoclassical ?

And Sonata Arctica <3

Err, *most* of those bands are definately not from Brazil lol. Don't speak of things you don't have a clue about sonny

STOP PRETENDING TO KNOW ALL GENRES OF METAL, MAIDEN IS HEAVY METAL, SOILWORK AND IN FLAMES BOTH ORIGINALLY MELODIC "GOTHENBURG" DEATH METAL

Stratovarius is the shit. I love this band and listened almost exclusively to them for a long period of time.
If you listen to Sonata Arctica but haven't heard Stratovarius you have no idea where Sonata has gotten their main inspiration from ;p

I'm nearly the inverse of the OP. I like death metal and some black metal, while nearly all other metal just seems completely retarded to me. I'd much rather listen to folk music, jazz, alternative rock, or just about anything, than regular metal music.

And "melodic death metal" seems like an oxymoron to me. Granted, I'm not particularly familiar with the genre, but what I've heard of In Flames is NOTHING like death metal, and much more like regular metal.

In Flames was melodic death metal. Their past three albums however... not so much.
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.
