Did he say say favorite and not the definitive? Why yes he did.

[Arabianhazard]

Sworn In The Metal Wind- Lost Horizon

 

[mel_progson]

I really had a hard time not putting this in my earlier post with my other pick cos I hate breaking thread rules lol, but I really feel this needs to be heard. By the most underrated power metal band ever (apart from maybe Vicious Rumors)

Rage-Invisible Horizons

 

[nomisofsiman]

Geez Milt, thats one hard question to answer. Had to think about it for a while.

Helloween-Halloween. This song has everything. Fast bits, slow bits, epic bits, lots of solo's and it features the greatest power metal singer ever.

Amen to that. Nothing else even comes close for me.

 

[AngraRULES]

...and it features the greatest power metal singer ever.

Andre Matos has never been in Helloween. He sang in Viper, Angra, Shaman, the project Virgo and his solo band.

 

[Winterheart]

And Then There Was Silence


I know, cliche, but it's still my absolute favorite. One of the few singles I own.

 

[SharkBlack]

Don't Say A Word

 

[panzermastery]

Gamma Ray-The Silence

 

[RagePSV]

Rage - The Lingua Mortis Suite (7 tracks, but it's one song).

Close Seconds:
Iced Earth - Dante's Inferno
Iced Earth - Gettysburg Triolgy (again, 3 tracks, but one song to me)
Destiny's End - Rebirth
Savatage - Chance

 

[Mardoch]

Man, this is so tough. Nova Era is definitely up there. I remember when I first heard of Angra some 7 years ago, I went to their site and that song was playing. I think my exact thought was "Holy FUCK! What is that song!?" So that one's way up there for me. Along those same lines, Almah's Fragile Equality is pretty amazing. It's the song that sold me on those two albums.

As for underrated power metal bands, I have to toss in Twilightning. I love their stuff, except for Swinelords...that's almost not even the same band.

In the Fervor's Frontier is pretty much awesome:


Iced Earth's Dracula has some of Barlow's craziest high notes. So that's up there along with Burnt Offerings for me.

For plain badassery I put in Sabaton's 40-1 and Ghost Division.

I love that someone put in Pantera's Power Metal, I was going to do the same thing myself, for shiggles.

I've clearly overshot my limit of 1. If I had to pick just one of those, it would be the Twilightning. It's just so very...power metal.

 

[Purveyor Of Evil]

I gotta go with HELLOWEEN - Eagle Fly Free, also.

 

[edgeofthorns]

Who would've thought, right?



A very close second though!
