I've applied this.

I'm tagging Fight For The Rock right now... should that be non-metal? There are a few metal tracks, but about half of the album is AOR....

No, I'd put it in Traditional HM.  It's definitely metal in my mind.

Alright...

Unless there are any objections, I will tag all of the albums with the list I posted earlier.

Just my two cents of their entire discography (from a Savatage fanboy ):

Sirens: Traditional Heavy Metal
Power of the Night: Traditional Heavy Metal
Fight For The Rock: Traditional Heavy Metal
Hall of the Mountain King: Traditional Heavy Metal (Power Metal works as well)
Gutter Ballet: Traditional Heavy Metal (Power metal works as well)
Streets: Progressive Metal
Edge of Thorns: Power Metal
Handful of Rain: Power Metal
Dead Winter Dead: Progressive Metal
The Wake of Magellan: Progressive Metal
Poets & Madmen: Progressive Metal

Well if I�m allowed to tag the albums like I suggested and add the progressive metal tag to the three albums Dean mentioned, I�ll do it. I might even have time to add some missing info while I�m there.

Yes, plus a good majority of their stuff is traditional heavy metal, so depending on where the majority of their albums go they'll probably end up in Traditional, power, or progressive.

I think having them included in both traditional heavy metal, power metal and progressive metal ( which will happen if we tag them as suggested above) is valid and more importantly gives them exposure to fans of all three kinds of music.

But... but... the three albums he hasn't heard Streets, The Wake of Magelan and Poets & Madmen are Prog Metal...
