Here's one of my favourite Power Metal epics, from my favourite Power Metal band.

Blind Guardian - And Then There Was Silence - YouTube

and here's a Black/Folk Metal epic from my favourite Canadian Metal band. (The uploading is poor quality, the production is better on the actual album.)

Catuvolcus - Litaviccos - YouTube
I love Blind Guardian, but the other two bands strike me as that kind of Ensiferum-style "battle metal" that started popping up after Turisas started getting big. That stuff always bored me. Turisas is pretty fantastic though.
