Empowering Albums For Powerless Losers

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.

Last updated November 27, 2021.

1.Blind Guardian - Nightfall In Middle-Earth
2.Blind Guardian - Imaginations From The Other Side
3.Blind Guardian - Somewhere Far Beyond
4.Jag Panzer - Thane To The Throne
5.X Japan - Art Of Life

Virgin Steele Albums Ranked.

Virgin Steele. Very few bands have had the same impact on me as Virgin Steele. There so many memories that can be connected to their songs. As time has go by David Defeis has seemed to lost it totally but you should never forget that they once were among the best and their music will live forever. I still wish I would have the possibility to see them live and I hope their next album will kick some major ass! Here's my rank, rating and some of my favourite songs from each albums!

A Hymn to the Fearless, the Savage, the Brave, The Spirit of our Liberty
Total my debts, tally my sins, charge each offence on my scroll
I'll never alter the course of my Steele, I am the King of my Soul!

1.Virgin Steele - The House Of Atreus Act I
2.Virgin Steele - Invictus
3.Virgin Steele - The House Of Atreus Act II
4.Virgin Steele - Age Of Consent
5.Virgin Steele - Guardians Of The Flame

Sibling Albums

So like albums that have a clear tie between them, were recorded around about the same time and were clearly intended together, as opposed to a sequel coming years after. Some of these have actually been released together, as can be seen here.

That's about all I can think of right now. So feel free to think of some more for me.

1.Opeth - Deliverance
2.Opeth - Damnation
3.Metallica - Load
4.Metallica - Re-Load
5.Helloween - Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part I

Virgin Steele - All Tracks Ranked (1-185)

I make no secret of being a big fan of Virgin Steele. They are easily my favourite band of all time. I have a list of their studio albums ranked and I just thought that wasn't enough. So for a ridiculously long time I have been creating this list. When you are ranking so many songs from one band it can get really difficult. You listen to a song you maybe haven't heard in a while and it suddenly jumps 30 places. I am pretty happy with the list though and will change it down the line if and when my opinions change.

1.Virgin Steele - The House Of Atreus Act I
2.Virgin Steele - Invictus
3.Virgin Steele - The House Of Atreus Act II
4.Virgin Steele - Invictus
5.Virgin Steele - Age Of Consent
