I disagree with the twin guitar solo based.

One plays lead. One plays rhythm.

I dont know of any kalmah song with twin guitar solos.

[edit] Genre

I noticed an unregistered user changed all instances of "death metal" to "black metal". In that sense, it makes them both "Extreme symphonic black metal" and "melodic black metal" which is plain redundant in my opinion; I believe both genres together describe them, instead of listing a few subsubgenres of a single subgenre. Thoughts? --Dayn 13:47, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Kalmah are a good example of melodic death metal, with power metal influences. I don't know where black metal metal came from, symphonic or not, because the only influence from black metal is the high growls on the first three albums. They are much heavier and death metal-like than Children of Bodom, and their newer album is a good example of melodic death metal/symphonic DEATH metal. In Flames 01:33, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
Yup, I agree with that. No objections to the genre edit.--Dayn 01:38, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
I dont think "melodeath/power" in the intro is necessery either, they are so far away from power. Melodeath with elements of power is enough. --Izzy999 07:30, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
the only Death metal thing I hear in their music is the vocals, Power Metal with Harsh Vocals sounds the best —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.49.88.32 (talkcontribs) 15:29, 3 December 2006 (UTC).

Yeah the drumming is pretty standard with not blasting and they have keyboards, I agree with you and hte metal archives, Power Metal with Harsh Vocals.

[edit] Copyright thing

The biography an anonymous user added was ripped directly from the official Kalmah site. I reworded it as best as I could, so hopefully it's not a problem anymore... --Dayn 09:55, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
