Can you recommend some great Symphonic Power Metal albums?

Not just Symphonic, but Symphonic *Power* Metal.

Here are some I have:
Nightwish - 'Once' (2004)
Rhapsody - 'Symphony Of Enchanted Lands II: The Dark Secret' (2004)
Kamelot - 'Epica' (2003)
Kamelot - 'The Black Halo' (2005)
Dark Moor - 'Beyond the Sea' (2005)

I didn't like this one as much, but maybe I just got the wrong album by them:
Avantasia - 'The Scarecrow'
If their other stuff is more Power Metal-ish, what album by the should I look into?

Thanks!





Answer :
Here's some random suggestions!

Bride Adorned - Blessed Stillness?
"Killing Frost" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSYXpt0RR…

Aquaria - Shambala
"Expedition" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4khHV4Zxs…
"Firewings" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmJYcwrtv…

Edenbridge - Shine / MyEarthDream
"Shine" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8g_dvd3x…
"Adamantine" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujL1Hjpiv…

HB - Frozen Inside
"God Has All Glory" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBvGQ60_p…

HolyHell - Apocalypse
"Resurrection" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlqwPeDLg…


I'd also recommend Amberian Dawn, but the vocalist isn't very good. Still, "Lullaby", "Valkyries", and "Fate of the Maiden" aren't bad, all from River of Tuoni.

* * * Also I'd say the Nightwish albums Oceanborn and Wishmaster are probably closer to the power metal than Once (although Once is my favorite!). Here's some songs if you haven't heard them yet! :P

"Gethsemane" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6RuDVwXN…
"The Pharaoh Sails To Orion" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbzez7A8g…
"Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESumfSkon…

"The Kinslayer" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2zVlvdR0…
"Wanderlust" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0RnPHfLr…
"Wishmaster" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FP7mjSwqO…





Answer :
DOOD, you gotta pick up Luca Turilli's "Prophet of the Last Eclipse!" It is epic beyond all compare!

Might also wanna check into Galloglass' "Heavenseeker."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M46vTevd0…

Fairyland's "Fall Of An Empire" is pretty good, too (despite the questionable name)

Good call on Aquaria, Skittles! Though, I have the album "Luxaeterna."

I'm a n00b to Burning Point, so I'd sample around with them. XP

And Epica! (no, not the Kamelot album you have) They feature the (freakin' hawt) female vocalist Simone Simmons, and I gotta go with Conspiracy Theory on this one.
