Amorgen merges melodic death metal with folk elements from Dordrecht since 2011. Named after the mythological Celtic poet-warrior, they bring Gaelic resonance to their South Holland compositions over more than a decade of activity.
Greenville, South Carolina melodic death metal outfit whose 2016 self-titled EP captures a band channeling Scandinavian melodeath traditions through a Southern lens. The Palmetto State may not be melodeath's obvious home, but Amorpheus makes a strong case.
Amorphus channels melodic death and black metal from Verona since 2023, their name suggesting formlessness that belies the structured melodicism of their compositions. From the city of Romeo and Juliet, they craft music of dark romantic intensity.
Amplified is a progressive and melodic death metal band from Herning in central Jutland, Denmark, formed in 2007, merging the technical complexity of progressive metal with melodic death metal's harmonic sensibility. The band brings genre-crossing ambition to the Danish metal scene from the heart of the Jutland peninsula.
Amplified Memory is a melodic death metal band from Munich, Germany, formed in 2013, blending fast death metal, doom and black metal ballads, and stomping midtempo passages with a particular focus on the nineties melodeath sound. Their releases Vas Hermeticum and The Ever Spinning Wheel explore themes of dreams, recurring patterns, and the nature of reality through their genre-crossing approach.
Crushing Technical / Avant-garde Death Metal / Grindcore out of Texas.
Springfield deathcore project from the Massachusetts underground.
Anachronaeon crafts melodic death metal from Västerås since 2007. Their temporal-anomaly name drives nearly two decades of compositions from this Västmanland lake city, each one a deliberate anachronism in the best tradition of Swedish melodeath.
Anakhoret channels blackened melodic death metal from an undisclosed Russian location since 2001. Named after the Greek word for 'anchorite' — a religious hermit — over two decades of reclusive creativity have produced a body of melodically sophisticated extremity.
