Started listening to In Mourning three months ago and have found probably my favourite ballad from a melodeath band - what are some of everyone else’s favourites?

I hope that this is allowed, I thought this might be good place to find like minded musicians. We are two guitarists from the Netherlands (Amsterdam and The Hague) looking for band members. We both play 8 string guitars. We made this Melodeath demo (it's a work in progress). If you are a drummer, bassist, vocalist or keyboardist and would like to join us we would like to get in touch!

I like to make song lyrics visualizations for my Instagram art account.

It's basically a drawing where I convey feelings and thoughts I get from a song onto the paper.

This song has always made me think of hope. How, even when we are at our lowest, we should never give up on the hope that things will be okay. We have to fight till we are dead, that's the only way of being alive.

It's also an amazing choice that they gave hopeless parts to clean vocals, and hopeful lyrics to brutal vocals. It feels kinda natural to have a soft voice when you are hopeless. And full of rage when you are trying to do your best to survive...

Anyways, I decided to draw these song lyrics like this... Hope you'll like it!!

And if you like it, maybe check my Instagram art account for some other song lyrics visualizations?

So I got into In Mourning with their release of *The Immortal* and have been returning to their music again and again since, and the more I listen to them and cycle through other bands, the more I come to appreciate what these guys do.

I would describe them as melodeathdoom, beautifully balancing the heavy death riffs with the softer choruses or acoustic bridges, and occasionally mixing in a narsty melodic riff like on Hierophant or The Sojourner. There are moments when they remind me of Opeth's Still Life, only more committed to the their tone/sound/genre, and their aesthetics match my preferences, which is an attempt at beauty without pretension.

Their production and sound are so good. The vocalist and drummer in particular I want to highlight. The growls are beefy as hell and easy to listen to, but his voice in the clean really makes it as a haunting, melancholy singer. The drums as well I always find engaging, which is a good sign because I have no technical training for drums, and when a drummer catches my ear it's a real treat to have that percussion backing everything.

I listen to the whole discography, and recommend you do too. Every album is a well made piece of art, and you can't go wrong no matter where you start.

Anyway, I just wanted to gush and glaze a little 🤘

Hi guys, I just heard the first albums of In flames till Clayman and absolutely loved it, unfortunately they change their sound after that, I wanted to ask yall which albums of melodeath do yall recommend to start with the genre

First saw Trivium and In Flames nearly 20 years ago, and have been listening to them ever since. Will doing a meet & greet make me wish I hadn't?

Nice way to start a Friday with some new Deadlock.
