The most irritating genre of metal to ever grace this planet. The bands steal from Iron Maiden's and Dio's catalog and add cheesy Lord of the Rings and other fantasy bullshit to their music. The music consists of a bunch of repetitive power chords, some guy who does a shitty job at falsetto vocals and sounds like he's getting raped in the ass, and a bunch of other transvesdites. Possibly the most hated genre along with nu-metal, metalcore, and emocore.
Power metal is fucking gay. If you want metal with balls buy a Suffocation or Obituary record.
