My Top 20 Melodic Death Metal/Metalcore Bands

[jjcowan29]

Sylosis is the best bar none. i like killswitch too. But where the hell is Sylosis

[BringMeFrost]

One does not simply compare Melodeath with -core shit.

[ohnobrowncow67]

Bodom's only 16? And where's dark tranquility? They basically invented melo death...

[dieburiedalive1]

as i lay dying and trivium are only true metalcore melodic...

[H3av3nShallBurnX]

fucking good taste

[MrR0cketSauce]

Ha! The no.1 band are all dwarves

[freshhardjumper]

August burns Red? As I Lay Dying? Killswitch Engage? BMTH(first album was great melodic deathcore)? Man thats shit!

[F1FT3EN]

What's trivium and as i lay dying?

As i lay dying = Trivium = True Fucking Melodic Metalcore

[TheDarkbetto]

good..but some nice bands are missing...

[Hammerpaints]

man 19 for shadows fall really?..... ther way more deserving of better

[Markett1234]

For all the stupid people. The newest album fever(BFMV) is gay but the album the poison is more like metalcore. And i think they were metalcore but now they suck!

[Hrtsniper159]

Ewwww killswitch engage...they fucking suck.

[Icantfeeeeeelit]

@Hrtsniper159 Killswitch sucks? man you fucking stinks

[IkORn90]

and where the f**k is "as i lay dying"?!

[DommeRisesAgainst]

Btw, Bullet for my Valentine isn't Metalcore. Wikipedia says this, but Wikipedia doesn't know anything about music. Bullet for my Valentine is Suckingcore/Shitcore. They really suck

[xxxM4xXi0Nxxx]

in flames FTW Go freaking SWEDEN!

[hermeson100]

[AndreDzeko]

[OhhTwxyy]

[skillzorz101]

Trivium fucking owns.

[evewysprr]

Killswitch Engage hasn't been metal since they got rid of Jesse. I met Howard and he was a straight douchebag, all he cares about is fame.

[fulgore15051991]

[bellcoso19]

[iiLoveSiierra14]

hell yeah.! Killswitch Engage #3 :)

[JizzUponThee]

BFMV is just a dumbed down version of good metalcore

[3uphory]

What would melodeath be like w/o Carcass? And ye, Asking Alexandria deserves a spot, next to other shitty crap emo bands.

[ChuckZombie]

Machinemade God......HELL YEAH!

[jackrussel20000]

How does killswitch engage beat amon Amarth???

[ch33sybrandon]

I don't like this list.. no Parkway Drive, Asking Alexandria, The Word Alive, As I Lay Dying,I Killed the Prom Queen

[Vinathor1997]

@AikaPelottava TRIVIUM GUITARISTS ARE THE BEST OF ALL THIS MOTHER FUCKING METALCORE BANDS

[cryan5280]

@Vinathor1997 Wow..."Facepalms"

[daviemark12]

[DasZuechthuhn]

Really good! like that, thumbs up :)

[DarkSyn101]

The only metalcore here is Killswitch engage and now All That Remains

[Plaguebob]

Ihan asia musiikkia :D

[COOLBEANS8029]

[COOLBEANS8029]

[COOLBEANS8029]

@DieBlobb those bands aren't metalcore lol

[VolantHalopeople]

I used to like Bullet For My Valentine, until they came out with there new album, which sucked I thought. But anyways great video man! 

[seth3556r]

You don't put Amon Amarth in a list with Killswitch Engage.

[Goth3m3]

7:05 HOLY SHIT WHERE'S OLI'S BEARD???

[fireguardianTMNT]

What is up with all the comments...bullet for my valentine is a horrible fucking band. They're not even Metalcore, they're like Hard Rock. Get that gay shit out of here faggots.

[IRevenanTx]

@fireguardianTMNT Even if they arent the heaviest of metal bands, give it a fucking break.. its just another band.

[LinksFan123]

@fireguardianTMNT Heavy metal, thrash metal, metalcore

[ACompetitiveHalo]

Aren't #19 and #4 the same band? Think I heard that the ATR singer was in that band before this member layout. . .?

[smokinbollocks]

Finally someone else that has heard of machinemade god!!! Lol good countdown some of it was a bit generic and not to my taste but otherwise the rest was great good watch thanks

[pulok69]

[tylerloool]

[RuckaRuckasNucka]

myGRAIN!!!

[ScarsOfTheForgotten]

I love how people are like "Such and such band is missing" Guys, it's not your list o.O And as for BFMV, they are good and I like them but they even say they are Hard Rock (Just with metalcore influences)

[xExplodingStarx]

[jettagt97tt]

All That Remains is the shit!!!!

[LegendaryGerman]

[AikaPelottava]

@mohammedalmanaa Lol, Bullet For My Valentine and Trivium sucks! But Arch Enemy is good.

[stuffmuffins]

@AikaPelottava trivium isn't that bad, they just arent that heavy. especialy on ascendancy.
