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

Get the MELDS mug.She's shy at first, yet will open up as you become friendlier. She may have a dark past and doesn't express her feelings well, so be careful with certain topics. She can be a real softie at times, and a badass at others.
She loves making new friends, yet isn't really sociable so she never makes any. She's quite smart, and cool too.
She's unique, in more ways than one. Her name is MelodIE not MelodY. That's pretty cool.

Get the Melodie mug.Beautiful lady with a gorgeous smile. Delightful in many, many ways. A Melody loves dogs and furry pets. She is talented, faithful, respectable and smart. Melody's has a sweet, warm personality even though it is not always apparent. Though sometimes a little stubborn and opinionated, she is known to be one that thinks through thoroughly before making a decision. She can sing well but never sings enough.
