[svenske kocken]

Check out som real heavy metal:

Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Manowar
Mercyful Fate
King Diamond
Accept
Saxon
Dio
Mötley Crüe
WASP
(old) Scorpions
(old) Def Leppard
Diamond Head
Angelwitch

 

[Opethfan1980]

Green Carnation, new Amorphis, Entwine, Sentenced, and Lost Horizon (power metal, but really good).

 

[Thorns of Sorrow]

I second that Andromeda reccomendation...

dl "In the Deepest of Waters" it nearly blew me off my seat

 

[Harp Heaven]

I would like to mention Threshold, their singer Mac is not a speed metal banshee, but has a powerful voice with a good range. The music shifts from very proggy to heavy, you might or might not like them.

 

[Liquid Tension]

Here are some progressive metal bands that could be what you're looking for:

Prototype
Mystic Force
Death & Taxes
Spiral Architect
Archetype
Tea Party
Pain of Salvation
Dimension
Evergrey
Antithesis

 

[Austin7]

Dream Theater

 

[Parasite]

To Die For are a pretty good band...in a cheesy sorta way. Their a mixture of doom metal and gothic-techno metal. It's cool

 

[Don Corleone]

yeah, there are many hair metal bands like that you know.

van halen definitely stands out. mötley crüe and (old) bon jovi, too.

Check out finnish CHARON! --->not really metal but it rocks!

 

[Autumn Falls]

The best thing you could do is to give Pain of Salvation a listen too..

And when you finish there pick up some Devin Townsend..

Brandon

 

[Constrictor]

He's a tenor, but that's not the same thing as "power metal vox." Power metal vocalists tend to have a thinner, less robust sound and heavily use their falsetto ranges. Dickinson doesn't use falsetto at ALL.

Why is your name Adolf Hitler backwards? Is that supposed to be clever and badass or something?

 

[Lakestream]

Pain of Salvation rules

Finnish NWOBHM, and their singer is one of the best heavy metal singers what I've heard lately...
There are some reviews of their debut EP in our webzine (link in my sig)
