Top 5 Melodic Death Metal albums of 2015

5. Event Relentless – Cold Black November (2015). Relatively newcomers, these guys deliver killer melodies and excellent atmospheric keyboards.

4. Sylosis – Dormant Heart (2015). Very punishing and complex release, however, the melodic passages and tempo changes made this one of our favorites of 2015.

3. A.C.O.D – II The Maelstrom (2015). Hailing from France, this band is ready for the main stage with their masterful melodic songs.

2. Killing Gandhi – Cinematic Parallels (2015). Completely taking us by surprise, this album reminds us of Omnium Gatherum + Dark Tranquility.

1. Children of Bodom – I Worship Chaos (2015). The legendary Finish band returned with an exciting and amazing release this year, propelling them to the top of our list.
