Best power metal band. They're soo consistent and they get even better when you analyze their songs. So many harmonies in their arrangements. Many of them sound great when rearranged to other instruments like the piano for example. And then there's the drums. Unlike many power metal bands the drums are actively contributing instead of just being a tempo backing track.

[@EtherealPizzaPocket]

@@adrianaslund8605 I agree 100 percent. Blind Guardian are miles above every other power metal band. There's a lot of cliche's in power metal that makes a lot of bands really hard to listen too, but Blind Guardian is just so original and well composed.

The weird thing about Metal is that sometimes it feels like there are too many, and sometimes feels like there's too few. Where do Manilla Road, Virgin Steele, Crimson Glory fit on here? kind of between Traditional and Power. Where do Morgana Lefay fit? between Heavy/Power/Doom. Where do Iced Earth fit? between Heavy/Power/Thrash. And what about Exciter, Agent Steel? Speed Metal needs a category. There is such a rich variety of bands that land somewhere between the cracks of Trad/Thrash/Power/Doom that definitely deserve a place in the pantheon of Metal as much as some of these other ones included.

[@notoriodtc]

he probably shoulda done a NwoBM category to throw priest, maiden and eh id go for angel witch maybe then without a doubt manilla in some kinda trad metal spot - along with like rainbow or scorpions, diamond head perhaps. Could put maybe motorhead. Theres just too much, the diversity of sound in metal is so vast its spectacular

[@Mofos_of_Metal]

@aname4141 Great comment, yeah I know a lot of people like to call it USPM and others might like to simply call it all "Heavy Metal" but it's an evolutionary step that's farther along than early Maiden and Priest. Also - I'd say that Priest's Painkiller does kind of emulate USPM in some ways.

[@Mofos_of_Metal]

@@notoriodtc Yeah I guess I'm emphasizing that UK Heavy Metal should have a category then US Heavy Metal should too, because the US kind of took off where the NWOBHM left off.

Tech death can be enjoyable too, Archspire albums are somehow funny to listen.

[@Agalloch1234]

@@niccolocolonnelli901 Funny at how bad they are.

[@matternicuss]

"Were"? To this day nobody has outdone Obscura, though it could just as easily be called 'avant garde death metal'.

[@jackdunc]

@@niccolocolonnelli901 Archspire are technical deathgrind like Origin

[@JohanHaagg]

I am supprised you went with In Flames insted of At the Gates

[@tood6459]

Should've added a Crossover genre just so you could include DRI

[@andrzejplaszczyk3371]

and power trip should be there too lol

[@mr.manpanman8860]

i wish for part two :) also just to get the word out, if your reading this i want you to listen to river fallen by catarinth, this solo creator is severely underrated

[@guhada-1]

Three bands i love definitely worth checking out 1: greyhaven 2: stain the canvas 3: motionless in white Disclaimer i only skimmed the top 3 picks of each genre didnt see if any of these bands where mentioned during the video

[@vladaprakopoviene6299]

Surprised that Apocalyptica didn't get symphonic

[@alex_mothes]

Damn, thanks for showing me the Power Trip, I really like it 💜

[@violentinstincts]

your lists are the fucking Rolling Stone of metal

[@perlundgren7797]

I can't tell if you're trying to praise or insult him.

[@MetalPersonJ]

more than RS anyway

[@putridabomination]

above surface layer list beyond rolling stone levels of basic examples tbh

[@Agalloch1234]

I wrote a similar comment 😂

[@matternicuss]

@@perlundgren7797 RS has notoriously shitty takes. Thought everyone knew that lol

[@tobeforgottenisworsethande8995]

Cradle of Filth was one of the first posters I had and I didn't even know what their music sounded like and that's kind of a reason that I got into metal

[@olivierroussin4432]

3:14 wait did FREAKING CHRISTOPHER LEE sang with rapsody!!!

[@Zychel_EX9]

Dude I’m so glad you didn’t forget soad Revenga is amazing

[@speshulk1207]

Haken is great, but I dunno if I'd pick them over BTBAM in prog.

[@atvena]

Same haken is avant garde anyway

[@FinalSky88]

Agree with a lot of this, but I'd have had Rhapsody in Symphonic, to make room for someone like Sabaton, Blind Guardian or maybe Manowar, included Battle Beast in Pop, and definitely have figured out how to get Symphony X into prog :) Edit: and just like that you've added their own category, I should learn to not shoot my load early.

[@Stevelangdon93]

AILD being ‘wild card’ is madness to me

[@atvena]

No shit whenever someone asks who is the biggest and best metalcore band is either them or Killswitch

[@berserkskeleton762]

I actually screamed with joy when I heard you say “Rammstein”. One of my all time favorite bands on planet earth; that and TOOL… which was why I was a little bummed you didn’t include them on the list.

[@Droops24]

I know Galneryus always gets mentioned from Japan; but Unlucky Morpheus and LOVEBITES are my 1-2 picks. They each delve into multiple genres of metal; so it's hard to categorize them.

[@Ieatdirt952]

I love these videos. I always end up finding some cool new band I haven’t listened to.

[@Gore_Glutton]

My heartbroke when no one in the chat mentioned Infant Annihilator while they were choosing the Deathcore. like they are the dad of Modern deathcore vocals. I don't mean SS, Lorna, or Whitechapel are bad but IA deserves more appreciation

[@ItsSmokex]

i did see some people in chat mentioning them but yeah i agree

[@pritamrudolph6425]

Yes it should have been infant annihilator , suicide silence and shadow of intent or slaughter to prevail

[@wesleyzimmerman3145]

You know what? I LOVE Glamtera. DIme said he loved KISS but a lot of his Glam riffs had obvious Priest and Maiden influence and it's awesome

[@vincentfalcone9218]

Seven Spires getting some attention is legit.

[@kaield4763]

yo ik, i was so surprised

[@Wailmur]

I fucking love that you added Amaranthe. They're so hated when they are really good
