| Nice list! A few of these I've haven't heard or even heard of. Haven't given 3IOB a listen, had no idea they were US Power. |

3IOB don't get tagged as US power very often due to one of the vocalists being a screamer on the first two albums (now they only have one vocalist and their newest album is more traditional Heavy than Power). But the music on the first two is USPM all the way. |

You do know 3IOB is a Canadian band though, right?  |

Here is where there are a couple different schools of thought: some people think that a style that has a location attached to it has to be from that area (ex. Bay Area Thrash) to be classifies as said genre. I don't. If a band plays Bay Area-styled Thrash and is from Europe (like Artillery) Then it's still Bay Area to me!
The sub-genre of Us power metal was made famous in the US, of course, but if a band plays that exact style, they don't need to be from that location. |

 Seven Kingdoms!! I was listening to them today... that was a total hidden gem of 2010.
Where's the love for Iced Earth?
And if you're including non-American bands playing US-style power then try Shadowside's 2011 release Inner Monster Out it'll blow your mind. |
