| You know: Things like Sonata Arctica, Blind Guardian, Symphony X, and the like. I love the style of music and I love how they actually know how to sing. Anyone have any other suggestions? | |||

| Most power metal vocalists don't know how to sing. Falsetto? Please. I haaaaate constant metal falsetto. Bruce Dickinson really knows how to sing though, but his voice isn't artificial. Awesome vocalist right there. | |||

| So, dose that mean that in Power Metal Bands, there's no screaming? Just singing?  |

| Power metal is very high-energy stuff with high voices, and they're all wrapped in fantasy stuff, like...slaying dragons and such. The lyrics and vocals are usually crap. (edited by Abnormal Freak on 09-02-04 01:20 PM) |

| Oh, thank you for helping me out there. I'm not really for sure but I think that Demon Hunter has a Power Metal sound to 'em. |

Originally posted by Nebetsu Out of the three you mentioned, only Blind Guardian falls under Power Metal  Sonata Artica and Symphony X are Progressive Metal. For more on this, check out Dream Theater, Queensryche, and Liquid Tension Experiment. For more Power Metal... Check out Judas Priest, Metal Church, Savantage, Helloween. I would check out Iron Maiden too, technically they're part of the NWOBHM (early 80's Britsh Metal) but I have a feeling you'd like them anyways. About the singing question: There's not as much screaming in Power Metal as in most of the newer genres of metal, and usually it's a more high-pitched scream than the low growled screams of today. Nightmare: There's a number of good reasons to hate pop music, and you've mentioned none of them. |

I'm shocked that nobody has mentioned Hammerfall, Rhapsody or Grave Digger yet. I wasn't too impressed with Helloween when I saw them at Wacken, but Grave Digger blew me away |

| My old Dorm mate was the biggest Metal fan I've ever met (about 300 Cd's all metal bands), and we often used to have a chuckle to a band called "ManoWar" they were a power metal band, whith extremely cheesy lyrics... sort of like... "WE SHALL VANQUISH THE DEMONS WITH THE POWER OF......METAL!" Class |

| I don't think anyone has mentioned them, but check out Gamma Ray. They're a German band and they're pretty damn good. I personally like "No World Order". Kick ass album. I'm almost positive you'll like them. Oh, and has anyone heard of Edguy? |

| First of all, I want to suggest Opeth to you. They are progessive and not power metal but nearly everyone I meet who was in to power metal has enjoyed their music. Opeth. Anyhow (just listing what I haven't seen other people suggest). Control Denied Nightwish Heavenly Lost Horizon Fairyland Iced Earth Iced Earth and Nightwish are 50/50. For each good song they have, they have two horrible ones. I haven't heard a whole lot from Fairyland, Lost Horizon, or Heavenly but out of the 5-8 songs I have heard from each, I can say Lost Horizon is the better of the three but I'm still interested in buying ablums from all three bands. |
