Yeah... a very conventional idea for a list, but i couldn't resist in the end finally making this one.
A list of my personal favorites from the blackest metal of them all.
Ordered by personal preferences and updated periodically with only one album/ep/demo per band.
Please enjoy, you might also find some of your likings in here. ^^
...and if not, it can't be helped.

1.Summoning - Stronghold

2.Primordial - The Gathering Wilderness

3.Midnight Odyssey - Firmament

4.Eismalsott - Best Before: Spring

5.Dornenreich - Bitter Ist's Dem Tod Zu Dienen

A list for power metal bands and albums, which are sadly overlooked by the majority, but are highly deserving much more attention. That means obviously that this is no place for the genres biggest and most well known acts, like Blind Guardian, Helloween, Sabaton or the likes.
This list is ever progressing, so feel free to suggest as many bands as they come up in your mind. I will check them out and then decide if they need to be included or not.
The only requirements: They should be quite well hidden in the metal world and not only be extraordinary good but also really something else (I obviously don't want to fill this list with a bunch of unknown, but average, generic and thousand times copied plastic power metal bands).
This list is ordered by my personal impressions.

1.Crom - Vengeance

2.Wuthering Heights - The Shadow Cabinet

3.Fairyland - Score To A New Beginning

4.Dol Ammad - Ocean Dynamics

5.Eldritch - El Niño
