I don't like any of their albums besides Crimson I & II, because they sound waaaaaaaaay too much like melodic death metal. |
That's because they are melodic death metal.

True, but there are melodic death metal bands with good overall records, like Opeth. EoS (or Dan Sw�no actually) apparently focused all their efforts in Crmson. Many of Dan Sw�no's solo efforts are also great melodic DM albums, like his solo album Moontower (which has some minor prog influences, IMO at least). |
It's fine that you don't care much for the other EoS albums, but saying that "they focused all of their efforts in
Crimson" is a statement far from the truth. Keep in mind that Dan Swan�'s favorite Edge of Sanity album is
Unorthodox, EoS was hardly even a functioning band while recording
Crimson, and right after
Crimson the band didn't even work together (Swan� made
Crimson II by himself, the rest of the band made
Cryptic by themselves, and
Infernal was a split between the two camps).
Crimson is my favorite Edge of Sanity album as well, but the band disagrees.
