Trivium isn't really power metal, but it's still metal

Apocalyptica, Metallica, White Chapel, Behemoth, Marilyn Mason, Bullet for my Valentine. Killswitch engaged.
Those are some good ones, some of them might just be metal tho. These are just some I saw at metal mayhem (except for first two.)

Wow, does anyone know what power metal means? Next to all the bands you listed where screamo/pop metal which I hear on the radio, all who were in this chat raise your hand if your american, cause that would explain your poor music tastes in sub genres.

Sanctuary.  I was trying to think of this one last time.

Look up the song Battle Angels.

And...  Yes, I am American...  Poor tastes in music sub-genres?  That's a bit of a subjective attack don't ya think?  Hit me up in a PM I'll show you everything I listen to.
