Blind Guardian

Nightwish (well, I don't know if it's power metal or "fantasy" metal, but they own! I really like this band.)

Dio, to an extent, although more mainstream, if you aren't a fan, listen to some of their stuff! Holy Diver is my favorite song by them(him), and my favorite album from Dio is The Last in Line. Dio rules.

Check out the song "Bright Eyes"

I am not exactly big into Blind Guardian, Silvermouse can probably tell you more about them!

Also, as far as Hammerfall goes, I'm listening to "At the End of the Rainbow" right now by them... that tune rules. So does "Riders on the Storm" (no, it's not a Doors rip off), if you haven't heard those two Wink

The best fantasy metal for sure is Mithril.

Maybe Orihalcum.

Metal has different catagories.

Basic metal -- love **** and such
Death Metal -- AHHH!H!H!H!!!!!!!!! DIE AHHHHHH stuff
Black Metal -- SATAN IS GOOD SATAN IS GOOD stuff
Fantasy Metal -- Dragons, swords EQ and such

That would actually be a subset of "Dark Metal". Bands like Anathema, My Dying Bride, etc. Samael, Tiamat and Opeth all pass through this category as well!

Anyways, about Blind Guardian. Download the track "...and then there was silence" from kazaa or something. That song basically sums them up.

Don't forget "The Gods Made Heavy Metal".

It's like my theme song!

The Gods made heavy metal
And they saw that it was good

They said to play it louder than hell
We promised that we would
