Melodic Death Metal vs Death Metal?

Which do you prefer. I prefer normal death but I still like to listen to some In Flames and Children of Bodom.

Deicide vs Dark Tranquility

Death vs Carcass

Amon Amarth vs Opeth

Edge Of Sanity vs Atheist

Update:

Kinglsey - I didn't say that Deicide was melodic and I know rightly that Amon Amarth is melodic. in fact I never implied it so what are you talking about.

    I prefer normal death metal

    BTW, Amon Amarth are melodic death metal not normal, normal is stuff like Deicide, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, Death etc

  • Only old school

    I don't like so much Melodic. Only some groups like COB, At The Gates and Dark Trabquillity

    Dark Tranquillity (i don't like Deicide)

    Death (one of my favourite bands)

    Amon Amarth (but i love Opeth)

    Atheist (great band)

    Dark Tranquility

    Death (close call)

    Opeth

    Edge Of Sanity vs Atheist ( i don't know if i can decide, Unquestionable Presence is my top death metal album, but I think i have a man crush on Dan Swano. I'll go with Edge of Sanity as they have more good albums)

    ***Sir Brannsworth: if you like Opeth, Edge of Sanity might be perfect for you. The Crimson album is similar to Opeths work and Mikael Akerfeldt does some guest vocals on the album

    and IMO Edge of Sanity > Opeth

    Death metal but i do listen to a lot of melodic death metal.

    Deicide

    DEATH

    Amon amarth(I don't understand what the big deal is on Opeth)

    Edge of sanity

    I agree Edge of sanity is {way} better then Opeth.

    I prefer melodic death metal, especially folk-ish stuff. Amon Amarth uber alles!!

    Can't help it, I'm a Norse Heathen ;)

    Dark Tranquility

    Death

    Amon Amarth

    Atheist

  • Well, in most situations, I like pure Death Metal, but there is SepticFlesh which made me love MDM! CoB sucks badly; In Flames are Decent.

    Ok, your chart now:

    Deicide (for sure, I don't like DT)

    Death and Carcass... hard choice - I like them both.

    Amon Amarth (I don't like Opeth)

    I'm a fan of Edge of Sanity myself, but I like Atheist too.
