What are some good power trios? The lack of a standalone rhythm/lead guitarist never made that much sense to me

There's not much difference between a power trio and the traditional rock format of vocalist, guitarist, bassist, drummer. Most guitarists in power trios build a part lead, part rhythm sort of style, and the bass is usually more prominent.
Jackson Hill
Sleep is good
Boris too, although they're not really a traditional power trio
Cream
Rush
Aaron Davis
Give The Who a listen, since that's basically it.
Andrew Brooks
How the fuck is The Who a power trip?

Minutemen has been mostly just three guys. I think they have one song on their album Double Nickels On The Dime that has a couple extra guitarists, but that's it. They do it by having the guitar/bass switch duties between either doing lead/rhythm for a particular part of a track. Technically rhythm guitarists aren't need as that's what a bass guitar traditionally does (thus why when one usually says rhythm section it refers to the bass guitarist and the percussionist(s))
