"The late 1980s saw the rise of death metal in Scandinavia, particularly in Sweden, with such bands as Nihilist (which disbanded and bifurcated into Entombed and Unleashed), Grotesque, (Grotesque split and formed At The Gates and Liers In Wait), Morbid, Merciless, Carnage (later Dismember), Tiamat, Grave"

IN FLAMES !!! (melodic death metal, I recommend you the albums: The Jester Race, Clayman but check out also the rest like Colony or Whoracle...

Borgir is more black (and Norwegian).... Lordi is Finnish... Mayhem is Norwegian....

[MERRYKISSMASS2U]

Lordi is more like a hard rock band, anyway....

Great minds think alike: I was about to mention Entombed and Burst...

As far as Entombed go, check out "Left Hand Path" for vintage, old-shcool Death Metal. For the record where they really came into their own, and developed their own sound, check out "Wolverine Blues". Also, check out "To Ride, Shoot Straight and Speak the Truth" - not too sure if yu'll like that one as it's sort of garageesque in production, but if you let it grow on you, you will see that it is one of the best HEAVY albums ever made.

Other bands to check out: The Haunted. More thrash than Death, but I reckon you'll dig 'em anyway. Check out any album pre-2005 as the last couple have been a bit ropey..

Also, check out At The Gates. Those guys were fucking incredible....
