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.

Manowar, love or hate them but I think every metal fan can agree that they've made some really killer tunes in their days. It was a long time ago I listened to any of their albums so to revisit them was fun but at the same time you notice how inconsistent their albums is and that their image that in the beginning felt tongue in cheek got way out of hand.
