If you already checked my previous list (http://metalstorm.net/users/list.php?list_id=312) and are aware about most of the albums on that list then you might want other solid power metal albums to check out. This is my list of 2nd line power metal albums that are really good and should be included in your musical library.

Notes:

- The first track in the favorite tracks description section of each album is usually my favorite on the album
- I avoided adding albums of bands that are included in the previous list

If you have a thing for stats like I do then countries by albums:

Germany - 7
Sweden - 5
Italy - 3
Finland - 2
USA - 2
Brazil - 1
England - 1
Netherlands - 1
Austria - 1
Mixed - 1

1.Victorius - Dreamchaser

2.Dreamland - Future's Calling

3.Theocracy - As The World Bleeds

4.Serious Black - As Daylight Breaks

This is a list of all the power metal albums I have listened to that are worth remembering. Like my other genre lists, this is not meant to be a definitive guide to power metal or a binding judgment on what power metal is or is not. The list exists purely for my own organizational purposes and may contain bands or albums that are not strictly True Knights of the Eternal Thundersword.

The first cluster includes my favorite albums in the genre (and a significant number of my all-time favorites); beyond that, they are listed by rating from 9/10 down to 6/10 and alphabetically within each bracket.
