I searching black metal or near it of ultra melodic catchy passages and great symphony/atmosphere, epic and upbeat (also it may be a folk/viking black). It stands to reason that "ultra melodicism" for my own subjective term.

Bands, that in my taste by type of melodic and atmosphere:

...and Oceans (The Dynamic Gallery of Thoughts)
Aaskereia
Aherusia
Bal-Sagoth (The Power Cosmic, Atlantis Ascendant)
ColdWorld
Dornenreich (Bitter Ist's Dem Tod Zu Dienen)
Evilfeast
Evol
Forest Of Fog
Hidden In The Fog
Impaled Nazarene (Absence Of War Does Not Mean Peace)
Midnight Odyssey
Nerthus
Peste Noir
Taake
Satanic Warmaster
Sear Bliss (The Haunting, Grand destiny)

Few bands, for example, that NOT in my alley:

Agrypnie
Blut Aus Nord
Catamenia
Ceremonial Castings
Dark Fortress
Deathspell Omega
Dimmu Borgir
Emperor
Enslavement of Beauty
Immortal
Kampfar
Limbonic Art
Lunar Aurora
Nae'blis
Naglfar
Nastrandir
Spite Extreme Wing

Thanks in advance!

maybe Obtained Enslavement's "Witchcraft" has the sort of "ultra melodicism" you want.

Borknagar's additional notes on this site once called their self-titled debut "viciously melodic" a long time ago. There's some truth to that. Strangely, while it is totally not the style I normally enjoy, I like that album quite a bit, too, they just somehow pull it off to play that style without being flaming homosexuals about it. Has a lot of class, in my opinion.

You like Taake, but dislike Kampfar? What?!


Try Ulver's "Nattens Madrigal".

How is Dissection not in here? Anything other than reinkaos should do fine.

These bands lean towards the folk/viking area of black metal but you might like them, as my tastes in black metal run the viking/raw/aggressive area:

Sorgsvart, Forefather, Draughim, Myrkgrav, Manegarm, and most importantly... Windir. Just Windir.

This is a bit out of left field, but summoning is very atmospheric and melodic, but the extreme repetition and synth loops might throw you off.

Vinterland - swedish black metal that kind of sounds like old Dimmu Borgir (for all tid, stormblast)
