@Stormheart: Damn that's some list you made there. Well just have to start checking some of them out
EDIT: Zonata has made the most power metal song of all time. The lyrics are so cheesy you honestly won't believe it...the song is called 'Gate Of Fear'. If you search for it, it probably has Sonata Arctica as artist. The album is quite good

Well Stormheart has told almost all of the bands similar to Rhapsody, I must say I haven't heard much of these bands, only a few. But, he missed Thy Majestie. I think they are most similar to Rhapsody. Must try them. Star with their last album Joan Of Arc.
But, have anyone mention dies ire? They come from italy too,
And i think this band very similar to rhapsody (and thy majestie) with orchestral element,
But they only released one album until this time, legend of nhor pt. I,
There's a Dragon Guardian now? Makes sense, we have Dragonland and Dragonforce and Blind Guardian, so why not have Dragon Guardian? Now we need a Fairy Force because we have a Dragonland and a Fairyland and a Dragonforce. Any more?
Pathfinder is awesome, that's all I have heard from that list. Thanks for the recommendations.

This. This is going into my signature. I thank God for power metal threads, they provide all teh lulz.
If you're looking for bands that sound like Rhapsody, I think Ancient Bards is mandatory, as it's a rip-off of old Rhapsody, only with female vocals.

They say we'll be your friends we'll stick with you till the end
But everybody's only looking out for themselves
And you say who can you trust I'll tell you nobody

And thanks for reminding me of Zonata, I had only heard of a few songs a couple of years after they disbanded and these were brilliant. More the Stratovarius kind of power metal though, to me this is different from the "Hollywood" (lol) metal Rhapsody claimed to be playing.

I'm going to bump this thread, because... I want some bands like Rhapsody. Been jamming Dark Moor a lot lately, which is possibly better than anything by Rhapsody.

Gotta love Dark Moor. Especially the older stuff before the new singer. Although I like everything they've done.
It's interesting how they both did similar videos where they just kind of lamed out in a white room.
Heeeey, look at us, we're Southern European Symphonic Classical Metal bands in white rooms! Yaay.
Probably already said but. KAMELOT.
they're pretty good.
