Avantasia Albums Ranked

The Metal Opera II was a very important album in my early metal years. Still remebering listening to it on repeat and it was the first time I heard Bob Catley, David Defeis, Rob Rock among others. I somehow never liked the first metal opera nearly as much and the Scarecrow trilogy was a big letdown (except for some songs). On the last three albums Toby have redeemed the name for me.

1.Avantasia - The Metal Opera Part II
2.Avantasia - The Mystery Of Time
3.Avantasia - Ghostlights
4.Avantasia - Moonglow
5.Avantasia - The Metal Opera Part I

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
