Helloween especially the earliest albums remains some of the best metal EVER

Powerwolf is the only band on that list who I listen to daily--though there are a lot of other great bands on your list, such as Helloween and Avantasia!

Scorpions is less heavy than the bands on the list I guess, that's why. Accept and Warlock should have been there, more than Scorpions IMO.

There's a lot of excellent bands there that deserve to get votes, but I'm on team Blind Guardian.

They're pretty great, but ironically a bit too consistent as well. They may never make a bad album, but they never surprise either. At least that's my impression of them.

A lot of bands I like there. Gone for Iron Savior. A very consistent band.

I know most by name, but IĀ“ve listened to surprisingly few of the bandĀ“s, so IĀ“ll abstain from voting, as my Helloween vote would be a bit too obvious.

An obvious choice but I'll vote for Helloween. I hadn't even heard Angel Dust until last year but think they're pretty awesome too.

Ah, German power metal! Few others can match its perfection(I'd like to think us Americans come pretty close though
 )..and w/ that said I want to know what YOU guys think who the best in the business are! For my money's worth I'm gonna go w/ one of the more obscure contenders in Mystic Prophecy! I just love their dark and gritty style so much!
