My Favorite Power Metal Solos!

[AnarchysCellarBash]

i'm not a big fan of power metal but i love the solos we can found ;)

[erickgodofwar]

pagan's mind eargasmic solo

[TheLuckis]

I am very good video ... and solos are also very good!

[foxkiller017]

this is fucking melodic speed metal not power metal.

[HellKnightDan]

@foxkiller017 nope, it's power metal, melodic wuld be something like Nightwish or Sirenia

[markou1987]

Fuck Heavenly are epic, and enough with everyone calling dragonforce shit, regardless they helped put this genre out there, also, go watch Herman shred in stuidio and tell me It's shit.

[BurbonPL]

Sonata Arctica - Destruction Preventer :)

[melokl466]

Angra?

Dragonforce?

[yukigiro]

casi todos dragonforce,helloween

[HellKnightDan]

@yukigiro es mas ke normal

[ammar012345]

روق المنجا

[darkalono]

[xRyuzakii]

[AlexMisc05]

[AlexMisc05]

which is the song of stratovarious?

[Hannzzoo]

@AlexMisc05 find your own voice

[Pridery27]

Symphony X IS PROGRESSIVE !!!

[yamiimax]

@Pridery27 power progressive stratovarius is it too

[Pridery27]

@yamiimax Stratovarius Progressive ???

[yamiimax]

@Pridery27 if ynwie malmsteen is prog strato must be too i dont care much in styles i just say to stratovarius melodic metal btw i dont like german power metal its too 0815

[Pridery27]

@yamiimax What ???? Yngwie Malmsteen Progressive ????? Yngwie is The King of Neoclassical !!!!!!

Stratovarius is Power Metal but the principal influence of Stratovarius is Helloween, Running Wild and Grave Digger, they put the bases for the new power metal bands: Sonata Arctica, Celesty, Dark Moor, Stratovarius, Angra, etc...

[yamiimax]

@Pridery27 well sonata stratovarius and angra have prog elements everyone knows that yeah germans have invented power metal but for me finns have expanded power metal with prog and symphonic elements and for sure neoclassical is prog i mean its complex oh and which german band use neoclassical non oh im sorry

[ixJake]

Thanks for not putting dragon force in! ;D

[77seventy7seven]

pagan's mind should have been at number 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MASTERSHIKOMETAL]

Stratovarius = The best epic band

Black Diamond = The best epic song

[rubikappleipodguy]

Yeah!!! Stratovarius!

[Frostliche]

You have great taste! Also, it must be said that this video flows very naturally between the songs. The intro and outro really gives the whole package an epic feel.

[TheJackandersan]

[sheva232]

[CruelAngel89]

Nice bands... you can check out my channel I have a demo for my Power/Melodic Death metal project. Actually I am recording. Thank you so fuckin' much \,,/

[EllusBoyer]

Stratovarius tinha que estar em primeiro!!

[sanymalaysia]

[Alexstoffe]

Nice video, very nice solos! :D Dont wanna sound like a douche but "Symphony X" is not a Powermetal band ^^

[ExtremeRockMusic]

WOOT NO DRAGONFORCE. im tired of seeing them in EVERY power metal video, i mean i like dragonforce but seeing them 24/7 is annoying...

[micy29]

genial video

[micy29]

genial

[mattliebl6199]

wow you must really like keyboard solos. do you play keyboards?

BTW no sonata arctica?

[indecor100]

dragonforce son pesimos y strato tabn , as puesto a Celesty q son buenos... y sin duda as puesto al rey del power metal Rhapsody Of Fire si señor

[links2435]

@indecor100 pesimo dragonforce te la creo .. pero¿stratovarius?

esta bien que cada cual puede tener diferentes gustos .. pero no son pesimo

[AnEndlessPain]

@indecor100

Dragonforce es muy odiado por muchas razones, pero son buenos, en todas sus canciones demuestran calidad. y no son lo mismo. Stratovarius no se diga, es de las mejores bandas de Power Metal, incluso mejor que Celesty en algunas cosas.

Y claro... Los maestros de los maestros... Rhapsody Of Fire!

[RivfaderBoti]

man! You have the right taste:D

[garciawr2]

power metal made me

[sorryboss101]

[clipto4]

Damn whats that band called! Ok there song gstarts with a crazy solo at the start.and the songs called seven, the guitarists name is michael. What band is that?

[Soadevafan933212]

@clipto4 Symphony X

[sadycon]

[BigMek456]

Power Metal ftw!!

[IamAlwaysRight]

Fuck rhapsody maybee chessy but ffs they have genius fucking solos, god-like passes in their songs for sure.

[TheHauntedSlayer]

[juanviper1976]

falto dragon force

[bucketkopf]

Good choice!

[Monstexitus]

galneruys is the best power metal band ever.

[2665leandro]

I love power metal!!!

Eu sou Brasileiro!!! LEANDRO

Cara parabéns você tem um ótimo gosto para a musica!!

[Dn8Free]

I don't know much about power metal. On some Thrash metal video a few weeks ago another user told me that power metal is for pansies, and that no one with balls like power metal.

But I decided to check out some power metal vids on youtube and decide for myself. And after this video, I must say so far power metal sounds pretty good! I mean, I still like Thrash more but I think I can get into this stuff. I'm going to look up some more videos.

Good job andyx90.

[HACKERSUCK12121212]

@Dn8Free hey man ill name some good power metal bands for you to check out gamma ray,blind guardian,axxis,startovarius,ha­mmerfall,sonata arctica,cryonic temple,labyrinth,aquaria,adagi­o,jag panzer,vhaldemar,stormwarrior,­twilightning,sabaton,and MANOWAR ! also epica, and nightwish those are some damn good bands that will help you really appreciate power metal =D

[Dn8Free]

@HACKERSUCK12121212 Alright cool I'll check out some of those. I have heard some Manowar songs before, they were pretty good. Reminded me of Iron Maiden and some other stuff. I have also heard Nightwish before but I didn't know they were power metal. I was thinking they were Goth or Symphonic metal or something.

[HACKERSUCK12121212]

@Dn8Free sorry i ment stratovarius

[yasinpatel12345]

great list!!

[keyboardfromheaven]

I think the firsts power metal bands like Helloween were pretty good, but definetely i prefer this kind of power metal with the speed guitar and keyboard solos, is just incredible.

[unanutriainfame]

but pagans mind is not power...is more prog metal like symphony x

[vikingfromchile]

@unanutriainfame and?

[YngwieVkO]

!GaLn3RyU5"

[Sckaper1234567890]

awsom!

[Srmhomer]

The intro song is Of Epic Questions by Pagan's Mind

[3rdLegProducktions]

celesty fading away's solo?

[Archevil21]

Symphony X > All For Fun u don't choose so good solo of Michael Romeo or Michael Pinela but... is still Symphony X!

[SeasonsOfBlue]

Loved Pagan's mind.

[AbkanisInTheSchool]

YEAH ! al fin algo decente, en vez de esa gilada del reggeaton

[LacraPowerMetal]

in my opinion, the best solo was the heavenly's solo, its perfect

[mrhampemoheda]

Stratovarius in my <3 Heart  ^_^

[betoneto666]

muy chingon....muy buena recopilacion....

[dragnrider9]

dude the start is fucking epic love the start!! what is it!???

[termiblaster]

yeah i wanna know too, but it sounds like a castlevania game LOL

[dragnrider9]

dude whats the song at the very start of the vid when the i guess they would be called credits were rolling?

[RogueKatz]

@dragnrider9 Rhapsody of Fire - Holy Thunderforce hope im right :)

[NickAmottMaggot7]

Aquaria *o*

[0fleetfeet0]

hells yeah!

[1BigBadBoi]

Dude. You gotta make another one of these videos. This is great

[wrenkler]

fuck yeah

[IamAlwaysRight]

Rhapsody probably has some of the sickest solos, and they have a lot of good ones.

[PiMpRiFiC]

damn these are the best power metal solos ive heard for awhile

[felisin07]

parece música de un puto videojuego xDD

[yeko222321]

exelente buena seleccion.

[tacoz28]

This is the best compilation I've ever encountered...I listen to it everyday...

[orax16]

the first was a keyboard solo

[SeasonsOfBlue]

It went from the keyboard to guitar.

[diegoa1516]

nice hit for Dragonforce fanboys xDD

DF has speed, thoose awesome solos have speed, beautifuly, and more artistic...!!! deal with it Studioforce fanboys!

3:50 FUCK!!! even better than Stratofortress from album Elements!!

[gammaray4evrr]

double kick ftw!!

[fishnodes]

they blended well

[Nanakokuroi1]

wtf no gamma ray solos

[diegoa1516]

speacially heading for tomorrow x_x

[anorangepick]

The aquaria solo isn't the best of the band...

They have some pretty baddass solos =)

Great vid, though..

[Aghatio]

mola mola, bellos solos colega:)

[collegegoer45]

I don't see how America can not fall in love with power metal. Its like, "Oh look, real talent!".

[eddieboy1234]

i agree dude nice comment :]

[Tenrash]

@collegegoer45

I Think that's the problem.

85% of what the listen is "yo nigga, i be .............." music, then 14 % rock things, and 1% maybe listens to music :)

[cobraopts7]

@collegegoer45 the vocals ruin it thats why americans dont like it

[flamedudeNL]

@cobraopts7

I agree, the vocals should be like Mark Hoppus xD

But the guitar work is great

[cobraopts7]

@flamedudeNL no the vocals should be like dio

[bojanalex007]

@collegegoer45 thrue!

[AnEndlessPain]

@collegegoer45

Lol

That's so true!! I live in America and I really love this.

I see their real talent.

[randomizationclassic]

@collegegoer45 America is driven by a spoon-fed market of simplicity and generalization, along with a hefty helping of bullshit. Throw in the fact that so many people living here would see it as music of 'The Devil', it doesn't help promote many metal genres being put to use. Though that's just my hypothesis.

[paleo99]

I don't get it either..most people I meet who are from the USA who don't even know what power metal is actually like solos like these. I'm sure if they were put on the radio it would be fine, but for whatever reason the stupid execs would prefer us to listen to rap and really awful pop.

[BrucePowerMetal]

Dark Moor !!!! intro silver lake is awesome :P

[itme4444]

I think the bleeping on the first 1 is keyboard

[0000watcher0000]

all these beeping makes me feel sick . . . . . . . . . i think i'l have to listen more to be cured T_T ho ho ho ho ho

[bignasty1982]

in the video rhapsody's is the best, but i miss angra and sonata arctica

[beimagowar]

rhapsody of fire for my are the better wow i love rhapsody and mago de oz salu2 compa

[eklundh666]

stop the critics...you talk like if you were jason becker....you say dragonforce sucks..y would like to see you NOT PLAYING the solo...but creating it.....you can have 12 years old and play a dragonforce solo...y know a 7 years old boy how plays lots of flamenco songs....but the reall trick is to invent a song...to transmite something to the people....but it seems thats now a day all the assholes like to criticis others.....respect..peace...

[laptopchampion]

@eklundh666

transmite is not a word.

[Artanis067]

@eklundh666 Agreed. I love how they created one song and just changed the lyrics to make all of their other songs.

[IcedPhoenix666]

Wow ... Aquaria solo was awesome....

[Yo9Rock7Roll]

Divinefire solo was seriously very good, probably my favourite of them... But they where all pretty goods!!

[ForgottenblackSoul]

RHASPSODY SUCKS DICK!

[bignasty1982]

fool!!!

[HabboUniversal]

I would like know the name of the song of heavenly that is first

[SonarcticAngel]

haha ya better put some rhapsody in!

[mrhampemoheda]

[darkvampireshinigami]

heavently and dark moor sokos are awesome

[yasinpatel12345]

i really really really love dark moor's solos

[Mordain607]

Feel like telling us the song names...

[IstariRadagast]

Ahi varios solos que son malos , en otros comparto la idea de que son muy buenos.

[superuser171]

[Supremist77]

Angra has good solos.

[skunk0rock]

rhasphody had the best solo.

then heavenly and dark moor were good too.

[Benoit5whc]

[rabandario]

children of bodom is beast than all that songs

[razgriz89MRRAZ]
