I've come to a revelation, I think I enjoy Melodeath as much as power metal o.o
Been checking out some awesome melodeath for a while now such as;
Norther, Kalmah, Insomnium, Children of Bodom, Wintersun, Amon Amarth, and ArthemesiA have been some of the ones I'm enjoying recently.
Based on those, I'd appreciate any recommendations It seems the Last.FM related bands don't have the same or similar sound a lot of the time ;p

In the Melodeath genre, you can take a listen to the Pioneers: Dark tranquility and At The Gates.
But if I take a look at your list, it looks like it's Extreme Power that you're searching for (Wintersun, Kalmah, Norther, COB).
Take a look at Raintime:

Most of those are Melodeath/Power combinations. Wintersun, early COB, and Kalmah have some black metal influences as well. So there explains your addiction with those bands.
Check out SuidAkrA. Melodic Death with Celtic influence.
