I meant like just death not melodic death.

[=LeviathaN=]

ahh ok. so like decapitated or cryptopsy?

[Malephar]

I like both, but Swedish is better.

[Deathcrush]

The question for me is very simple because i never listen to swedish death metal so...
I choose the American Death Metal scene

[Deathcrush]

But i don't have nothing against the swedish scene...

[SonoftheNorth]

American, because of Obituary.

Ha ha, you don't know WHAT you mean do you! If anything, I'd say its the other way round, and that there are more straight SWEDISH DM bands!

Then again, what DM DOESN"T have Melody???

[=LeviathaN=]

i think cause melodic death has more of a traditional sort of musical melody
where as full on blast beat extreme DM is down played with off scales. and
is more ominous.

American. Florida in particular

[Caconi]

I choose America for Obituary.
