Excellent Band, Probably my favourite band right now. No Real "Weak" albums, all very freaking solid

Would rate the albums

Damage Done
Projector
Character
The Gallary
Fiction
Skydancer
Haven

Must be some Dark Tranquillity fans on the board. Favourite songs? Most under-rated metal band..ever?

I am a fan. One of my early discoveries. Have all the albums, don't really have a particular favourite album as I think they are all pretty good.

Favourite songs:
To a Bitter Halt
The Sun Fired Blanks
Lethe
One Brooding Warning
Cathode Ray Sunshine
Not Built To Last
At Loss for Words
Fabric
One Thought
The New Build

Not under rated, were with In Flames and Soilwork as leading bands in the 90's that influenced whole new genres.

They're alright. I used to like them more than I do now. If you want really good melodeath, I suggest you check out Insomnium - one of the best in the genre IMO

Always loved the quote from Terrorizer's "Decade of Agression: Review of the Nineties in Extreme Music" when talking about Dark Tranquillity.....

"Some argue that good death metal was never intended to sound as if the musicians playing it were actually enjoying themselves. "The Gallery" proved that such a presumption was nothing more than nonsensical fiction".

Favorite Songs from my 5 top DT albums:

The Gallery - Punish my Heaven, The Dividing Line & Edenspring
Character - The New Build & Mind Matters
Skydancer - Crimson Winds, Through Ebony Archways and Shadow Duet
Of Chaos and Eternal Light EP - Alone '94, Of Chaos and Eternal Light & Away, Delight, Away
Projector - Therein, Auctioned & Day to End

Nice call Saint KFC - I have all 3 Insomnium albums...Beyond The Weeping World started to stray too much into the Opeth style of things for me..but its still good. They are certainly starting to mature which is great. The first two are my favorites.
