Alright, I'm currently going through a power metal phase and need more. Yes, I've read all of Bill's thread but his descriptions are single sentences long and not as descriptive as I would like.
I listened to Gamma Ray's "Blast From The Past" as my first power metal album almost four years ago but I don't remember much about it.
Then I slowly warmed up to Stratovarius and now I finally managed to download their incredible album "Infinite" which is worlds better than the other Stratovarius disc I own, "Elements Part 1".
I also like Lost Horizon's "Awakening The World" and I'm currently ordering the next album on The End Records.
I also have Jag Panzer's "Mechanized Warfare" from three years ago but they're not warming up to me as much as I would have liked.
Hammerfall has absolutely fantastic guitar/bass/drum tone but I hate the singer's voice. Ugh.
Firewind... what needs to be said about Firewind? I own both their CDs and am eagerly looking forward to their third release coming soon. Very melodic and catchy, yet with a darker flavor at times like classic heavy metal which I really enjoy.
And then there's the incredible Avantasia "The Metal Opera" discs. Incredible rich vocal arrangements, great guitar work, and ultra-catchy songs. A couple of the dudes singing have a little bit of a Bruce Dickinson sort of voice which I enjoy immensely. Some friends dissuade me from checking out Edguy because it's apparently nothing like Avantasia.
So now you know sort of what I like and what I don't like. Recommend me albums and artists to check out. Sound clips preferred. Not sure why I'm going through a power metal phase lately but I'm enjoying it quite a bit!
