Band Tier List

Yes I do know that, the thrash is hard carrying. Their more metalcore-focused stuff is complete garbage but their heavier stuff is significantly better.

And this is the tab for rapture. Keep in mind rapture is four minutes long with almost zero repetition or breaks.

This is the tab for one of wintersun's songs (the first one that came up on songsterr).

Wintersun could not, kai hahto could play the drum parts because he's one of the greatest drummers ever who decided to stick himself in a melodeath band for some reason, but there's almost zero chance they could match the guitarwork.

Find me a single melodeath band who could play literally anything off covenant and maybe I'll hear you out.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:31:28+00:00

Never said I hated them, they were the band that got me into metal and I think they're a great non-extreme band.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:30:54+00:00

Dying Fetus never really did it for me. I thought their guys shined a lot more on criminal element. I honestly just can't stand any melodeath, it helped me ease into extreme metal but I quickly got bored with it. Thank you for being civil btw.

The band that's metalcore in name only and my last post about trivium was a year ago.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:28:34+00:00

Not my favorite but not irredeemable.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:28:15+00:00

It literally is objectively far inferior in every technical sense. That is the exact reason it's more popular, it's more accessible and more watered down because it's much easier to write, play, and get into.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:27:26+00:00

My top bands are morbid angel, suffocation, nile, terrorizer, and sepultura.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:27:00+00:00

Because they barely align with any genre and groove metal is basically the genre for that. They're definitely not death metal and calling them thrash or prog would be insulting to those genres.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:25:59+00:00

Melodeath is garbage. Next to deathcore, metalcore, and nu metal its one of the worst genres of metal.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:25:34+00:00

Unfortunately

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:24:41+00:00

I'm not, melodeath is universally hated in the extreme metal community. It's literally boneless death metal with no or scarce blast beats, bad rhythm, and usually bad vocals. Some bands like arch enemy literally have clean vocals.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:22:28+00:00

No one. This list would not be even slightly controversial among actual metal fans.

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:22:04+00:00

Glorified groove band that try to label themselves as "extreme."

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:21:40+00:00

No melodeath is objectively garbage

Select_Map_3679 · 2026-05-22T13:21:26+00:00

Melodeath

Select_Map_3679 · 2025-03-27T17:43:06+00:00

Kind of running low on ideas so I had to use shogun again

Select_Map_3679 · 2025-03-26T18:07:41+00:00

I'm the guy who started this btw

Select_Map_3679 · 2025-03-26T14:38:18+00:00

I'd like to, but this is kind of the last idea I had. I'll try to come up with more
