This is a list of all the power metal albums I have listened to that are worth remembering. Like my other genre lists, this is not meant to be a definitive guide to power metal or a binding judgment on what power metal is or is not. The list exists purely for my own organizational purposes and may contain bands or albums that are not strictly True Knights of the Eternal Thundersword.

The first cluster includes my favorite albums in the genre (and a significant number of my all-time favorites); beyond that, they are listed by rating from 9/10 down to 6/10 and alphabetically within each bracket.

My "Final Selection" for 2010. Top 10 in order. The Rest for A-Z.
As a big fan of Power and Folk metal, this year was quiet good. The return of Rhapsody, new actors as Ancient Bards, Sinbreed, great comeback - Accept, Masterplan with Jorn, long awaited albums - Orphaned Land, Blind Guardian and Alcest. Some discoveries - Finsterforst, Skiltron, Pretty Maids (shame on me)and Orden Ogan. Some unexpected suprises Black Majesty, Iron Fire. Not to say that many bands didnt disappoint me with their new album - Derdian, Freedom Call, Eluvetie, Galneyrus, Wuthering Heights. Good year, a little bit above the average

1.Blind Guardian - At The Edge Of Time

2.Pathfinder - Beyond The Space, Beyond The Time

3.Freedom Call - Legend Of The Shadowking

4.Derdian - New Era Pt. 3 - The Apocalypse

5.Rhapsody Of Fire - The Frozen Tears Of Angels
