Title says it all really, I made an attempt to pick my favorite album from each of my favorite bands. I did not take into account the number of albums released by each band, and I did not take into account if I've actually only got one album by the band. Difficult to pick just one album by most of these giants! (Bands are listed alphabetically)

1. Angra - Temple Of Shadows

2. Avantasia - The Mystery Of Time

3. Axel Rudi Pell - Mystica

4. Axxis - Utopia

5. Ayreon - 01011001

Power Metal has the whole pack. Listening to one album of Power Metal you can feel free , relaxed , happy , sad , and so many more states of mind. If you put it all together listening to Power Metal makes you human. (I only used English language albums and I know some of the albums are not completely Power Metal but all of them have some Power Metal elements . If I could I would have added more albums but my head is spinning right now). So Power up everybody!!!

1. Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys Part II

2. Blind Guardian - Imaginations From the Other Side

3. Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys Part I

4. Riot - ThunderSteel

5. Gamma Ray - Land of the Free

Yeah, I should have put up Viron's cover art as the image but that Dokken single (associated with an Elm Street movie) just looks far more interesting. Whether or not that was a PM addition to a Hollywood soundtrack may be a point of relevance, but to me it's immaterial. Go listen to the music!

1. Eidolon - Nightmare World

2. Tad Morose - Modus Vivendi

3. Brainstorm - Soul Temptation

4. Children of Bodom - Downfall

5. Viron - NWOGHM

My version of The Epics (Best Songs Over 10 Minutes) only this time it's more The Epics (Songs Over 10 Minutes) because we kept griping to PG and he wouldn't update his list. According to his profile he hasn't been on in... 371 days. So I thought "Hey, why not do it myself?"
Arranged by time. If you feel or know a song should be on here, let me know. I'm a mainstream fag, so I only listen to the popular stuff. I might have missed some bands.
