Some Essential Melodic Death Albums


These are 36 of the my favorite Melodeath albums in no particular order. This will hopefully serve as a starting point for someone new to the style. If one of your favorites isn't on here, it's because this is my favorites list, not yours. Feel free to make recommendations, however.

Nice list I've been of fan of the genre for years now and I've had trouble finding anything particularly special, this should help nicely though

Nice Work, bro. But is Opeth really Melodeath?

Children of Bodom's Album should have definitely been Hatebreeder

HCD is the only CoB album I really get in to. It's not meant to be an exhaustive list, just my favorites of the style.

Great list but i'd keep it to one album per band, that way you can get more variety

Very good choices IMO, especially the unusual ones (Dark Age is very underrated). Makes me want to update the similar list I made some time ago.

No Eucharist? hell they inspired Dark tranquillity and their two are the best melodeath albums around

Childeren Of Bodom have nothing to do with melodeath. It's extreme power metal they play, that's it.

Opeth isn't melodeath. They are progressive death metal
