03.28.07 | Blind Guardian is all the power metal you need. Sonata Arctica is pretty good too. The rest suck, IMO, even though a lot of people seem to like Kamelot. |

03.28.07 | well i've only ever heard 1 2 and 9 so
blind guardian gets a 2/5
dragonforce's Valley of the Damned album gets about a 4/5 from me
but everything else by them is quite boring 2/5 material
stratovarious is decent but they can get old so 2.5/5 |
Brain Dead
03.28.07 | The majority of power metal is so generic and samey sounding that it's hard to believe. Good choice with the Iced Earth and Children of Bodom. I would recommend Blind Guardian for sure from this list, and perhaps Dragonforce. |

03.28.07 | 1 and 5 are the best out of all these. dragonforce's first 2 albums are great but their new one isnt as good.
blind guardian - 4/5
dragonforce - 3/5
kamelot - 3.5/5 |

03.29.07 | I think Sonata Arctica is the best on here, Dragonforce is ok, but they sound the same after awhile. Hammerfall is really good power metal, check them out. |

03.29.07 | gamma ray is awesome |
Lunarfall
03.29.07 | Just a note, I don't think any of the bands I listed lower are bad, I just don't like Stratovarius, DragonForce as much as the others. |
