Opeth's growls are great for Opeth, but not for every metal band ever.

Save for Bloodbath, which Mikael Åkerfeldt did vocals for. Though they did sound a little more... "evil?"
And Misereatur, I believe it was Jonas from Katatonia that suggested they do two seperate albums, because Mikael had an abundance of clean and acoustic riffs and didn't know what to do with them. I think that's explained on their Lamentations DVD.

Bloodbath has a clear death metal vocals, that Mikal is definitelly capble of (having seen him live (fucking 24 hours ago) I can say that he is probably capble of any type of growls or vocals).
What I ment to say was that Opeth has their own vocals and sound.
I thought that Opeth and Steven decided to split Delivarence into 2 albums. Good piece of information, tnx. BTW, Have you heard Mikal's album with Katatonia, Brave Murder Day? Absolutly brilliant. My second favorite Katatonia album (after Dance Of December Souls, their first album).

Opeth live is a pretty great experience :) (assuming one's into them)
Unfortunately I haven't heard Brave Murder Day. I've hear many good things about it though. The only Katatonia album I have is Discouraged Ones, and I don't listen to it much. Maybe I'll drag it out later and listen to it, and try to get my hands on Brave Murder Day.

Hahaha. Beyond inhabiting the impossibly large and general genre of metal, Lamb of God has very little in common with "old school" bands like The Sword or Mastodon. Lamb of God is just poor, boring metalcore.
Hardcore can very occasionally be good, but this recent trend towards mixing it with metal almost always turns out poorly. Shadows Fall and As I Lay Dying have good songs occasionally, but most of the bands, including Lamb of God, are unoriginal and bland.
KharBevNor:
Mixing hardcore with metal works very well, as long as you use the right kind of hardcore. See Stormtroopers of Death and Municipal Waste for further information.
