Can someone recommend me some good Power Metal bands or songs?

[D26]

I've recently became a huge fan of bands like Avantasia, Sonata Artica, so I would like if anyone could suggest me some Power Metal or Symphonic Power Metal bands or songs?

I'm new here so if anyone could suggest I would gradly appreciate!

Lost Horizon is all you need.

Any songs from them? (you know to start?)

 

[JontRevolting]

Not sure of the song titles,but both of their albums 'Awakening The World' and 'A Flame To The Ground Beneath' are the best of the genre.

Honestly, Dragonforce. They aren't that bad! I believe Painkiller by Judas Priest is power metal.
