Weeeeeeellll... I could reccomend loads. But to start it off, I guess Gamma rays "Send me a sign" would be a perfect recommendation. Then, something like "Power of the Dragonflame" from Rhapsody... Or indeed, any song from Rhapsody. I havent heard a bad song from them yet. Their guitarist Luca Turilli has some good solo stuff to. Check out "Ancient forest of elves".

Blind Guardian, specialy if you like good vocals (they dont get much better than that). "Mirror, Mirror", then "the Bards song" (acoustic, but still great).

I think Hammerfall is pretty decent (I have the Crimson Thunder CD ripped to my laptop).  I heard a Dragonforce song once and was totally not impressed.  However, I am always looking to expand my sphere of musical taste.  Could someone recommend some great power metal songs for me?

Oh, I could, and I did. I love Eaglehart.

Gamma ray too. Send me a sign is one of my all time favourite songs.

Sorry, but no thanks. The only thing I like about them is the video for Last Supper.

[Phantom A6] Thursday, March 12, 2009 10:53:24 PM

[paorcamp] Thursday, March 12, 2009 10:50:40 PM 
yes...I really enjoy listening to hammerfall...and rhapsody, dragonforce of course...but if we talk about power metal my favorite band (or one of my favorites) is running wild...I think you should try it...you're not gonna waste your time

Havent heard of them before, but Im listening to them now. "Before the duel" is the song. I like it. Specialy the guitarist, plays a nice melody, and decent riffs. Also, he looks kinda like Iommy, so thats bonus points too, lol.

Im not sure about the singer, tho. Average, imo. He just doesnt have the kind of voice that would fit power metal, imo. Rhapsodys or Hammerfalls singers are much better.

Ok, my turn, lol... Pyramaze. I guess you know them, but just in case if there is someone out here who doesnt, its a must:

[_strat_] Thursday, March 12, 2009 10:32:34 AM

As much as I love Blind Guardian, Demons and Wizards never really appealed to me... IDK, I think that (at least on those songs I heard) Hansi is really not doing what we know he is able to do.

you should check Demons and Wizards, really good power metal band w/ Jon from Iced Earth and Hansi from Blind Guardian

[_strat_] Thursday, March 12, 2009 5:05:33 AM 
Yup, yup, yup. Power metal thread take 3 (at least). I know power metal heads are out there... So... To start it off, Hammerfall... Ive been listening to their new stuff lately - particulary "Last man standing" and "Natural high" are both bloody awesome songs. Sorry, no links yet, the work computer wont let me, but I promise there will be some when I get home.

Anyone familiar with Rhaposdy of Fire? A bloody great band from Italy... Any song on youtube is good, but Power of the Dragonflame and Unholy Warcry are the best...

Dragonforce... Nuff said. Another great one, guitarists probably drink a bathtub-full of coffe everyday...

So, anyone else has any stuff to share? Something not very well known, probably?
