Trad metal influenced melodeath, FFO: Grenadier.

Lyrics focus on the troubles and war between the British rulers in Northern Ireland and the Provisional Irish Republican Army that sought to end British rule and establish a socialist republic. I'm mentioning this because this style of melodeath is often times associated with racist, far-right ideologies which is afaik not the case here.

tech/prog blackened melodeath? it's definitely a bit removed from the classic melodeath sound, but i think it broadly fits in here
