[mrblahnes]

ensiferum (epeleptic attack) yeahhhhhlelele

[Raiden1000002]

Most of these aren't even melodic death metal!

[Fyrnaelli]

@Raiden1000002 i never wrote that these bands were death metal =) I just said "melodic"

[Miniteeny]

@Raiden1000002 Melodic metal and melodic death metal is 2 different genres..

[Plaguebob]

finnish powah :)

[MekeyBurton]

[r7punk666]

[Fyrnaelli]

@r7punk666 nightwish is symhponic, noob. i never said all these bands were symphonic. learn to read and you'll see it's just a list of all the genre i put in this vid. you stupid dumb

[r7punk666]

rename it to My Best Folk Metal Bands - part. 1 or whatever..so stupid when u call it symphonic metal...learn stuffs about genre bafore you download them..

[novella1993]

WoW I'm surprised with Dark Moor's song Spin has good bands too

[ruckmens]

TROLL FEST HEY.....

[ultrawaregamestudios]

LOL @ 04:10 reminds me of some SoaD songs XD

[TheBabbybuddha]

KALMAH

[Primebot101]

wait, brutal metal vs melodic metal = who wins?

im guessing melodic metal owns

[Hartnell666]

@Primebot101 yep melodic FTW

[theinmortal6]

@Primebot101 Extreme Metal is usually more technically complex, and there is more variety in Black Metal , compared with Power Metal.

[Sonata14]

Yo bro' some nice sh*t right here, but where's all the Swedish bands like Istapp ? :O

[Rustinator5]

You sire have an amazing taste!!!! Both parts were tremendous!

[Rustinator5]

@Rustinator5

I stand corrected, all 3 videos were tremendous!

[myhood25]

>.< like the first song, russians' ancestors = vikings, russia ftw!

[RaWeR94]

@myhood25

You should check your history

Russia has nothing to do with vikings

[myhood25]

@RaWeR94 i did, don't worry.Russians did not raid like the vikings just like the germans or french.But that doesn't mean they are not descendants of the vikings.You don't need to raid in order to be a viking by genes.Modern russia(starting from peter the "great") is not like what it was in the middle ages.Language,culture, religion changed more or less but the genes did not(blond/red hair, and grey/blue/green eyes).And our language still retains it's norse words.

[TalvellaMaa]

@RaWeR94 Uhm, Russia had a lot to do with Vikings. Ever heard of "Varangians"? They were eastern Vikings.

[ShredmasteRsl3]

where's Children Of Bodom???

they would've completed the list

[thiscool59]

shame that nightwish is pop now :(

[apostolbandofficial]

if you are fan of the style you should check us and our clip out. All info on our page here

[MadMaxPain45]

pretty sweet music man

[Drazlak]

folk bands, they are not melodic bands, what the hell is wrong with you?

the instruments added to the folk bands are the folklore of the instruments!

folk bands are very different from the melodic metal band!

[yetiraper]

good except that you got some fold while its said melodic in title...but still nice

[darkerfate8]

im disapointed... i didnt see children of bodom :( but the other bands were really good to

[6xxjoshuaxx6]

nightwish = shit pop!!!!

[DanHar84]

Great List... thanx!!!

[bannedaccount57]

what does melodic metal mean im trying to find new genre's of metal and find the meaning of them.

[hamzasmage]

SCANDINAVIA!

[kaoskazin]

Man. Kalmah is the fucking best.

[cemetary665isVictor]

Arsis? anybody?

[eberabio]

yes, nightwish sucks now ..

[habekeinennamen]

Just the same Favorites as my own!

[theblackguy6haaa]

the best think you can do is just ignore the the people that ask not to be lol.fuck em

[ruggi007]

guys guys guys...iron maiden created the genre melodic metal this is meldic death metal or melodic heavy metal, and nightwish is fuckin pop btw

[JonniDDR]

this first band is good but i can't for the life of me figure out what their name is it looks like random letters thrown together... ensiferul? wtf is that

[eddyetscheid]

@JonniDDR band is called ensiferum

[IbanezJoey]

@JonniDDR Ensiferum is latin.

[tnt420tnt]

@IbanezJoey really?

[darkerfate8]

@IbanezJoey they are finnish...

[IbanezJoey]

@darkerfate8 Ensiferum is a Latin word. The band members are Finnish. It means something along the lines of 'Sword wielding ones'

[MrHumanToilet]

why does every1 have to scream can't they sing normaly or don't they have enough talent to sing normaly.

[Agnes135]

It takes more talent, to make those bueatiful melodies and riffs, than sing.

So fuck up and just appreciate the music for what is.

[BF1]

@MrHumanToilet It's just part of the genre of music. The vocals are simply another instrument is what it means to me.

If you dont like this, why dont you go listen to American Idol, the whole thing is singing.

[SirCaba]

@MrHumanToilet are u serious???

ahahahah

screaming and growling is so difficult ^^

[MrHumanToilet]

@SirCaba yes I am. It is not that hard to growl or scream. But it is hard to sing good, not well GOOD!

[SirCaba]

@MrHumanToilet the difficult is the same

[HikariZN]

Misleading title lol

And i tht i wld see a bit of in flames :P

But i love ensifereum

[rocknymm]

DARK MOOR,NIGTHWISH..?

[Mereaper666]

dark moor, i agree, but nightwish, that shits' more like melodic rock than metal, waaaaaay too weak, even for a melodic band

[Oroposgr]

From which country is the band Folkearth?

[rocknroll3441]

@Oroposgr Finnland, Switzerland, USA, Romania, Russia, Sweden, Germany, Monaco, Italy, Belgium, Croatia, Norway. uh....And several other countries. Folkearth is an International band basically.

[Smazzpop]

Is it just me or dus one of the voices in dark moor sound like the female singer off of fairlyland?

[Fyrnaelli]

@Smazzpop maybe because it's the same female singer =)

[Smazzpop]

They are, thats realy cool :D

[ruckmens]

@Fyrnaelli is she a pemanent member now????

[Fyrnaelli]

Thanks to all those who understand what I mean when I say MELODIC metal; and I advise the other to buy glasses or even a brain for several =)

[OdiinswarriioR]

I agree who cares if the majority of these bands are folk metal or whatever its good music and thats all that matters.

p.s. folk metal is only classified as bands that have folklore lyrical themes or use classical folk instruments in their music. it doesnt have anything to do with melody or what type of vocals are used. so these are melodic metal bands. your homework your poser!!!

[rangnoynoy]

winter sun is my favo.

[Yanigoescrazy]

I am so sick of the fight of genre... how cares? Bands are good or not...

bytheway i love metal...

[mariuslupercus]

Does anyone know if in the band Kalmah there's involved the guy behind that solo project band, Druadan Forest?

[preyfan]

fucking trolls they suck - but melodic metal rocks !!! buyahh

[crawlthroughknivess]

they do fucking suck.

[hopa666]

apparently there isn't a difference between FOLKmetal and MELODIC metal xD dude do your metal home work..

[Xrenegoznaet]

ensiferum, trollfest, kalmah... MELODIC metal?! are you kidding me? they are awesome, yes, but it's not melodic metal :)

[DarkSkysify]

kind a like viking metal huh

[ultradragonlordofwow]

man i like it how melidoc metel makes the guitar sounds

[zetsushoren]

Trollfest lol... don't feed the trolls

[ilovemywashburn]

well viking folk metal is brutal!

[WhosAbusingAbunny]

folk metal ?

[sk8rboy54321]

asking alexandria- a prophecy best evr

[teeseeKoo]

Finland sure owns in metal :))

[Tarjaholic88]

Hell yeah two of my three favorite bands are from finland.

[bolli6]

Sweet =] Melodic metal FUCKING RULES!

[shinshokenryu]

I LIKE IT BUT NOT THAT MUCH

[MrIAmAwesomo]

@shinshokenryu : Dude. All caps? Annoying...

[Utubesuxmycock]

ur mom is annoying

[Johnabilly1]

Ensiferum!!!! Hell Yeah!

[Kuro2Neko]

Where is COB? They're so goood.

Well I dont really know if cob are melodic metal..

[8801291378517]

Tarja is great singer and she was heart of Nightwish, but now NW is pop band.

[ArkadiusNEX]

its pretty much true but tell that to a nightwish fan they are stubborn that old nightwish was alot better now both are missing something tarja went solo and her musics lacking not vocaly but everything else and nw is missing the vocals but has everything else but oh well what can you do ?

[Tarjaholic88]

Yep Annette= POPWISH. I miss Tarja,

but shes happier on her own.

[dnLfliped]

winter sun is pretty much Esiferum

[popily47]

lol ensiferium sorta reminds me of alestorm

[AvengeJoker]

ya, but alestorm is pirate metal and ensiferum is viking/pagan/finnish mythology

[megadethfans96]

dont have genre melodic thrash metal(melothrash).......if have....its can be the awesome song with keys........melodic death metal is the best genre

[1Adrenoline1]

yeah man melodic death metal is bad ass i luv it.

[KingNimby]

im sorry but all of these bands in this video suck, and i listen to alot of metal

[MrSp0tify]

NOt ENSIFERUM - Guardians of fate Its 1 of the best songs ive heard in a long time :P

[NonstopTrapdoor]

I agree

[Scydow]

Don't worry I will forgive you :)

[Diomaeth]

well many of them are viking/folk metal

[PunksDeadEmoK1dsN3xt]

I like this video. 5*. I see some people below don't understand what Melodic means.

[Scydow]

Agreed, stupid people are stupid.

[perferstrategy]

nightwish is an awesome power metal band !

[Noway0093]

kalmah is the best melodeath metal : PPPPPP

[TobiMetalManiac]

very good choice, but the only melodic metal band is nightwish, best pagan bands would fit better

[Disturbed071]

Nightwish is Symphonic Metal,similar but not Melodic metal.

[Fyrnaelli]

songs from Nightwish are melodic, that's all

[Disturbed071]

No, Nightwish is symphonic. Scar Symmetry is a melodic metal band. Unfortunately they lost their singer and it's just not the same anymore...

[PunksDeadEmoK1dsN3xt]

LMAO

[bescein]

Nightwish is a pop now :(

[blackdevilishere]

hell yea :S u r damn right :@ really hurts me evrytime i see this stupid anette :@

[8801291378517]

you're definietly right.

[cobhcpick]

@bescein thats true my friend....

[Raiden1000002]

@bescein And nothing of value was lost.

[Groongers]

@Disturbed071 - melodic doesn't need to be a genre even. Nightwish is very melodic. Maybe that wasn't your point, but they are melodic. Anyway, nightwish suck.

[robert33182]

agreed

[COURAGORN]

I think trollfest is a little overrated, but kalmah, ensiferum and dark moor are fucking awesome! (specially kalmah =P)

[DeathMetalJoker666]

kalmah......just saying the name gives me a redwood in my kakis!!! ive always wanted to say that!

[ticulote]

you have like 6 band of folk metal not Melodic

[Fyrnaelli]

dude, folk can be melodic...

[Rhoads236]

you should listen to Eluveitie :) send me a message if you like it

[kenobiense]

korpiklannii finntroll y nightwish¡

[Pivotdude653]

where the hell is inflames

[11111011]

if you want in flames in the video, make your own

[Disturbed071]

In Flames is pussy emo metal.

[timh0510]

wow no wrong

[Disturbed071]

Hah yeah they are. Have you even looked at their lyrics? Gayer than Three Days Grace in my opinion

[Fanat1287]

In flames - Graveland ...For each day of war is a failure for man, enslaved in her mordial genes Illusions bleed from their fetid cores, bent to their rotten extremes We, the plague of Terra Firma, nature's grand and last mistake plant the poisoned seed of cancer, set the severed fruits awake Burning like frozen relics in god's archaic graveland Burn the visionaire Kill the ideaologies Mankind must die... ...Moron..

[perferstrategy]

In flames is Awesome! There melodic death metal anyway not emo.

[Disturbed071]

They are most certainly not Melodic Metal... not even close.,

[crunchmetal]

KORPIKLAANI FTW! KORPIFUCKINGKLAANI! YAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!! Sorry they kick too much ass for me to not have a 13-letter "yay."

[Naterfosth89]

viking metal-folk metal

[iamqqqqqqq]

I don't believe I am alone in being slightly eager for Wintersun to finish their new album...

I don't want to rush him, since he's a perfectionist, but a 3 year delay is so painful!

Their first album is so fucking good though, that it's still incredibly capable of tiding me over

[GravyGuns]

iight yo ugot kalmal thats a start

but where is cob

[GodofLol123]

the first one should b folk metal cuz of the way the sing and dress...

[FireHawkX97]

Itz called Viking Metal

[Frostsense]

If someone would take the thing with genres really serious, he would say: "In THIS ranking isn't ONE SINGLE melodic death metal band."

Try out At the Gates or Gates of Ishtar or In Flames until "The Jester Race"...that's melodic death.

[x0scimy0x]

try Norther or Children of Bodom

[iamqqqqqqq]

It says "melodic metal", not "melodic death metal", though

These are all melodic sounding metal songs

[teoskater]

jajajajajajajjajajajajaj xd esta chido

[DrinkingIsAGoodHabit]

nightwish has a haunting voice i love it

[m3ta1h3ad145218]

Nightwish doesn't belong in this list

[Fyrnaelli]

but they are in =)

[DragonboltBlastter]

dude Nightwish is goth metal ;P

[chucholuchocucho]

wintersun sounds great!! I´d never heard of them untill now

[kornguy437]

Wintersun is an awesome!! Beautiful deaath!!

[MoeLesterDePeterFile]

i like children

[SerpentSouI]

[JuanDiegoProductions]

[JuanDiegoProductions]

children of bodom

[ExtremeSkippingFan]

[Th0m3v]

[sstephane]

Lol, what are they then?

[SerbCommando]

Bah! That is why I envy you Finnish peeps, you have so many great bands in one place it's simply not fair! :P

Great video and awesome compilation of songs! :D

[ChaoticDoll69]

Fuck yeah!!!

i love kalmah!!!!!

[BeyondTheCemetery]

1:12 LOL the music and the picture. Looks like an ogre with a one headed version of the dog from Harry Potter.

[DarkRoland666]

Fantastic Bands!Ang great Video!Respekt,good work!:-)

[Leeches93]

Perhaps you are right then lol ^^

[Leeches93]

dark moor is one of my favorite bands but the singer sounds so gay (in my opinion)

[Fyrnaelli]

maybe because it's a girl :)

[MelodicMetalliah]

Dude stop with the kalmahs vocals !!! Pekka kokko's vocals awsome and unique , i havent seen any vocals like it before . Kalmah is the best band ever , period .

[Tankiangirl]

me too...

[Carter5005]

I hate Nightwish....

[Apocalp7ica]

-1.

[Zanninovich]

Agreed.

[StriderOfShadows]

I think kalmah's singer lacks the quality for melodic songs that Jari and Lindroos have

[DarkMoor99]

WINTERSUN!

[7480619]

awesome bands..gj

[DGIxAl3X]

Where are At the Gates? :|

[dhmkhkk]

Dont u think that half of that bands are folk metal?
