Go for it, I`ve actually got a lot a big interest in power metal at the moment and fancy listening to a whole load of bands that I haven`t heard in a while along with some new stuff. Most of the power metal stuff I know and like is by (Euro bands) I like some Manowar stuff but North american power metal is quite distinct to the Euro bands:
Blind Guardian
Helloween
Gamma Ray
Stratovarius
Hammerfall
Dragonforce (Don`t like)
All the above bands have released some great albums, despite the often heavy Iron Maiden influences and cheesy aspects associated with the genre.
Would be interesting to know your top 10 albums in the genre, so I can check if I know them.
