Malmsteen was who I thought of too. Thing is, you could get certain tracks on albums by the likes of TSO, Savatage, Tyr and so on that would be instrumental, but a) the album would not be entirely so and b) some of those would not, or might not, be considered strictly power metal. Is, for instance, Virgin Steele power metal? Is Manowar? How is it decided, Unknown Soldier? Can't you get an education thread up, explaining it to us non-sub-genre folks?
Seriously, I'd like to know: what makes metal "power" as opposed to any other sub-genre? Is there a list?
Would something like this work?
or this?
or even this maybe?
Perhaps a good "metal instrumentals" comp could be arranged? Anyone? Oh, okay then, I'll do it....
