Oh sorry man I didn't mean to come over all pouty. It's just that I don't hear the melody and so I'd jsut rather that was accepted than I get pushed to sort of be forced to hear it. But you're right, I did ask the question. It was kind of rhetorical though I realise now that's not how it may have come across.

It is bouncing from full tones that produces the melody/harmony that you like, this is less prevalent when you are utilizing semitones, which is why a Morbid Angel album sounds like one long jazz instrumental.
You will however finds lots of melody in Black Metal especially bands that utilize symphonics. Dimmu Borgir is the most accessible of these bands for a newbie, but u have to listen to a lot satanist garb, so if that's not your bag try the first Ulver album, or do a search for black folk metal.

Yes! Yes! This man gets it! Harmony, that's what I mean! Lovely girls, her and her sister Melody!
Yeah I think that's what I was trying to convey all right: I hear no harmony in SOME extreme metal. Not all, but some. Thanks for that!
