>tfw i bought this album when i was like 13
my dad liked it too

Power metal is only good because it's catchy. Prove me wrong.

protip: you can't

Why does hardly any other band come close to this level?

If you like Finnish power metal, listen to this.

Only good power metal is Helloween. Why don't you power fags git guud huh :^)

I really like the increase in metal generals that we're seeing here. Someone needs to make a new /black metal/ general though.

Early Gamma Ray is good too, you know, before Kai went creatively bankrupt

Is there any cool power metal that doesn't have the typical flamboyant vocals? I love the energy, but the singing is just so unappealing.

I don't think you can like power metal without the high vocals

Rec me some good power metal that isn't based on tolkien garbage.

gamma ray was my favourite band when i was 15-ish
they're not based on tolkien. Illuminati, on the other hand...

why is power metal so gay?

Yeah, listened to plenty of Gamma Ray. Somewhere Out in Space is my favourite power metal album and one of my favourite albums in general.

noble beast vocals weere ass
sumerlands sounds like some weird ozzy vocals to me
dark forest had those high notes, literally the first thing I heard (skipped to 1:20-ish)

you proved me wrong on the other two though.

Thank you! I'll be checking these all out, but from what I heard they were all pretty good.

i don't know how to feel about this. it's so catchy yet it's titled niggerslut and sang with black metal vocals. it shouldn't be this catchy

It's just dumb fun, nothing wrong with that. I agree that in theory it should be way worse than what it is

i feel even weirder now that I know it's the dragonforce dudes who made that song.
but yeah, dumb fun is a good way to call it.

more in the vein of thrash/nu-metal
