01.25.13 | Great list dude, is good to see 2,5,7 and more here , Symphony of enchanted lands of rhapsody of fire is also a good album, other key albums of the genre includes visions of stratovarius, temple of the shadows by angra and virus by heavenly ( they are less known than most of their contemporaries ) . |
FrozenVain
01.25.13 | Thanks, Vermicide. I have never heard of Angra and Heavenly actually so I will have a look at that. The little I have heard from Rhapsody is really good and I also dig Stratovarius even though I haven't heard enough at all. |

01.25.13 | Check out Theocracy - Mirror of Souls
The title track is the best power metal song I've ever heard. |
Keyblade
01.25.13 | nice list. you got the wrong albums for 4 and 6 though |
FrozenVain
01.25.13 | @LloydNewgreen
Will do.
@Keyblade
I think Awakening is better. Don't know about 4 though haven't jammed their entire discography.

Keyblade
01.25.13 | duuuude you gotta check out Epica. and to a lesser extent Karma. |
CaptainDooRight
01.25.13 | I own all Angra albums and Temple of Shadows is one of their weakest albums. I enjoyed them more with their original singer. But temple does have one really song on it imo. |
jopower

01.25.13 | hmmm power metal... definitely need machinae supremacy |
FrozenVain
01.25.13 | Thanks for the comment, guys. Machinae supremacy is kinda cool, but not really my kind of power metal. |
RichardRG
04.15.13 | IMO, you have the RIGHT choices for 4 & 5. ;)
I recommend Stratovarius - "Visions," Rhapsody of Fire - "Dawn of Victory," Nightwish - "Century Child."
|
FrozenVain
04.25.13 | Stratovarius kinda rocks. I've been checking out a lot of power metal bands lately. Thanks for the recs |
