Okay. So another word for melodic death metal would then be melodic metal? But I have heard albums described as mdm which, when listened to, were much closer to what I would think of as DM. This one is not: other than the odd screeched vocal and a few banging riffs, it has, as you say, about as much to do with Death Metal of any stripe as, oh I don't know, Kesha does.
