Azvareth Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I can agree with Dio being power metal-related... but Maiden and Priest? :/ I'd say those are heavy metal (or NWOBHW to be proper). Definitely not pm. That's just my opinion though. Anyway, for me I like stuff like Stratovarius, Hammerfall, Freedom Call, Dragonforce, Twilightning (?) Edguy, Sonata Arctica etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barking-Loon Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Yeah Maiden and Priest for the win, but they are heavy metal or like Azvareth stated NWOBHM (New Wave Of British Heavy Metal). For power metal I like early Helloween, Gamma Ray and Stratovarious. A recent study shows that 92% of all teenagers have small purple pet elephants named Jack.

Rainbow 6. Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force 7. Manowar 8. Dio 9. Accept 10. Blind Guardian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necromagus Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I think four out of five of those bands are accepted as power metal. Whoever wrote that list probably had very little idea what they were talking about.

Azvareth Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 According digitaldreamdoor.com, Pantera is powermetal, Michael Jackson is rock and Sentenced is black/death metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How2PK Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I think it's better to do some research and find sites that suply good information before you start yelling " best power metal band ever!", and even quoting those things in your signature. Anyway, I'm not a powermetal man or something. But I think Dragonforce is a pretty good band. And for what I know they make powermetal. [edit]I must admitt I thought DDD was a good site as well. But this indeed is a little bit weird. Maybe their lists are done by users who don't know much or something.

Sunwarriord Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 According digitaldreamdoor.com, Pantera is powermetal, Michael Jackson is rock and Sentenced is black/death metal. They said Pantera's 80s work was power metal. I think its a pretty good site. Has a lot of good information. But hey if you guys really don't like it, just forget the topic. i'll change my sig too.

When we are correcting the information you've given that shows we are interested in the topic. And we'd like to discuss it. And if the topic is already here, why not keep it open.

Sunwarriord Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 If those bands aren't power metal, then i don't know what it is. So i don't know what to talk about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
