CoB don't sound really like melodic death to me... and yes i am aware of what proper BM vocals are like. Personally I hate melodic death for the first part, it just dosen't agree with me.

They are catergorised on Metal Archives as "Power/Speed Metal with harsh vocals"

Could you give me a proper definition of 'raw and grym' please?
Christ, do you think "Metal Archives" is holier than thou? Having heard "Hatebreeder", it's all the same.

no, but I do see it as a very good authority on metal. Also its a good way to clarify things straight up, instead of having pages long of inane arguments about crap.

Hatebreeder was the first CoB song I heard, and yeah it does sound a bit like melodic stuff, but the band's stuff in general dosen't.

they are 'hardcore' and not anything to do with BM
Is black metal, like Opeth, and all that European Scandinavian metal

well Opeth are generally called prog metal, but you're on the right track - bands like Burzum, Emperor, Darkthrone etc are in that sort of category.

Theres a fair bit of debate about what is 'tr00' BM, generally there is the scandinavian type stuff, then NSBM, which has a more overtly fascist sort of bent, then theres 'viking' metal to do with norse legends and all that sort of stuff, black/thrash along the lines of Destroyer 666, and it gets even more complex when you start talking about genre's such as melodic black and so on.

I've been digging Silencer - 'Death - Pierce Me' and Thorns - 'S/T' lately.

EVERYONE SHOULD GO DOWNLOAD SILENCER - 'DEATH - PIERCE ME' NOW!!1111

If you're into early Burzum and stuff, then you will probably like SILENCER.

Best Band Ever.
