Carcass, shown here performing at Gods of Metal festival in Bologna, Italy (2008), helped define the melodic death metal genre with their 1993 album Heartwork.[1]

This is a list of melodic death metal bands. Melodic death metal is a heavy metal music style that combines elements from the new wave of British heavy metal (NWOBHM) with elements of death metal. The term Gothenburg metal is often used to describe bands associated with or stylistically similar to the melodic death metal scene that originated around Gothenburg, Sweden.

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.
