Yeah. Having listened to them I concur. Power Metal. Nothing special about it. Bit of what you might call NWOBHM or standard metal in there with some of them, but no new sub-genre. Metal, pure and simple.

I think I see where I went wrong. This is the classic style of Power Metal. Searching modern Power Metal never gave me results, though searching for Heavy Metal was how I found those 7 (though Grave Digger I found from a similar artists search of Vhaldemar).

Edit: To clarify, modern Power Metal seems to be dominated by Neoclassical/ Symphonic/ Melodic/ etc subgenres.

My bad, just didn't want to read every rule indepth and rather not risk it.

Though I gotta say I really like the growling vocal style. It seems so rare to find it in non-extreme Metal (extreme as in Death, Doom, Black, etc).

Thanks for the recs, I'll be going through these for a while!
