HA, HA! The first band to do it!? THE FIRST BAND TO DO IT!? Are you kidding me? Bullshit! They just HAPPENED to be around when that stuff was just starting to gain popularity. They WERE among the first wave of those bands, I'll give you that. But they were NOT the first band to blend those styles by any means, nor are they the best by a longshot. That entire genre is a cesspool of bands that at best can write some very good riffs (which Prayer for Cleansing did have going for them), but very few of them are good bands as a whole. Melodic Swedish death metal has almost ruined the entire metalcore genre... Don't get me wrong, I love hardcore, and I love melodic Swedish death metal, but the blend of the two is basically an abomination.
