X-japan.
Incredible songs, Incredible lyrics, and, even being a little old, a really good exemple of melodic metal, with lots of emotion, fast played and somewhat heavy in the first and second CDs. It was love at first sight. As their work ranges from melodic/heavy metal to more romantic and less heavy in their last cds, I can assume that there is a LOT of god songs to be used in AMVs.
I'm sad cause there's so little amvs with their songs.
A great song that I really sugest is Rusty Nail.Not heavy, but still very melodic and fucking enjoyable.
I know that japanese may sound strange or whatever, but give a chance and listen to it, I have sure that you will like it!

I just love melodic metal, and I feel very sad for the lack of their use in amvs
