[edit] They don't sound like death or melodeath
the vocalist doesnt even use death metal vocals —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.126.191.3 (talk) 19:41, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Cleanup
Seems like this talk page was filled with random jarble. Also, removed some biased comments on the actual article. --Resonant0ne 23:03, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
- I'd like to see a reference for the Will Smith mention. BigMar992 21:19, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
The idiot who wrote this article is obviously hearing this band from the newer albums and has no idea what melodic death metal is, it would be more accurate to mention their direction into modern rock.
[edit] External links
I notice that the soilworkers.com fansite keeps being added to the article regardless of the various reverts and warnings against it. The fansite does provide some interesting info that is not present in the Wikipedia article, however the fansite also contains copyvio content and according to WP:EL, links to such sites that carry copyvio content are strictly forbidden. So I'll keep removing the fansite unless Wikipedia policy changes or the fansite changes and I doubt either will. --Leon Sword 21:33, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
From Adam at Soilworkers.com: The Official Soilwork Fansite I was hoping an independent source could add a link to the official soilwork fansite to the wikipedia (www.soilworkers.com). I think it has a right to be there along with their main site because it does hold some unique information. Wikipedias for German, Spanish, Swedish, and Suomi have it linked among others so hopefully someone in this country will deem my site worthy. Thank you. 22 July 2007
[edit] Article content
why not put up the other acts that speed is in. Like Disarmonia Mundi, Coldseed, or Terror 2000 (I know the last 2 need entries...) but still —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shatterzer0 (talk • contribs) 07:56, 30 April 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Soilwork-logo.png
Image:Soilwork-logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Progressive metal
I think this tag fits them quite perfectly. I know they have their own sound and much like In Flames have kind of wandered off the path of "purist" melodic death metal so to speak, so this tag would cover pretty much anything they have done from Figure Number Five onward. Also think In Flames should get this tag too, as both of these bands like the grow and expand outside the bounds of the norm, much like Opeth who are considered progressive as well. Just a thought. -- Shatterzer0 (talk) 05:50, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
I've never seen both Soilwork and In Flames as being prog (except perhaps lates In Flames album). Surely they have tapped into new metal and alt-metal, and melodeath alone is not fitting to both perhaps. Haxxiy (talk) 23:22, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
