kj1313: give me some examples, because the word "modern" scares me =( like Melodeath became mainstream.
and growl is specifically a Death metal thing, while shriek is more Black metal... and there are fewer and fewer Cookie Monster growl singers - now many people don't even use a computer to modify their voice.
Don't worry, "Modern" just means "Contemporary").
By this style, I mean that Melodic Death Metal incorporates elements of Nu-Metal or Hardcore... By the way, Modern Metal and Nu-Metal are the same thing, just to make the connection...
Here are some examples:
Deadlock (not a great band, but they'll do for an example), Engel (the first album is a bit rough but listenable), Mors Principium Est, Daysend, Deathert, Machinemade God, Cerebro
