I've heard Testament, Nevermore, & Sodom. I'm not a fan of Testament and Nevermore. I definately like Sodom, but I'm not really looking for thrash right now. I'd like something more along the true/power metal lines, but still has an aggressive edge to it. I'll look into those other bands you mentioned. Thanks!

+1 for Iron Savior, Jag Panzer, Steel Prophet, Lost Horizon, Metal Church, Cirith Ungol, and Slough Feg.

I would add:
Tad Morose
Fates Warning
Saxon
Agent Steel
Hammers of Misfortune
Manticora

...also, if Holy Terror posts some I would follow his recommendations as well.

Oops, forgot to read OP I see. :wink:

Adam and The_Voice's recs probably fit TC's tastes the best. I'd also like to recommend Scanner, the album Hypertrace in particular (actually prefer Terminal Earth myself, but the 1st one seems more in line with the TC's tastes).

I agree with Blind Guardian, Biomechanical, Lost Horizon. Definitely check out Lost Horizon, I've loved everything I've heard from them and will be buying something soon...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I haven't checked out everything yet, but so far October 31, Hibria, and Astral Doors have caught my interest.
