Primal Fear is another great band that early on was more heavy metal but became more power metal after their debut.
Hammerfall is another phenomenal band.
An Australian Power Metal band Black Majesty.

Ahhh yes, I love rock and metal music. I typically favor alternative rock the most, but I do like some hardcore artists.
So I guess I should share some of my favourites?
One that comes to mind is Underoath. For some time, they were my ultimate favourite band until Aaron (the drummer) left. Anyway, I still think their album Define The Great Line is fanatstic, just every single song on there is good. I just love their sound with Spencer's growls and screams and then Aaron's beautiful singing voice. I think my favourite MV from them will always be "Writing On The Walls".
Another hardcore group I enjoyed was The Devil Wears Prada. I absolutely love their titling style, like seriously, their album "Plagues" was amazing and despite their weird titles, they have really good lyrics. Anyway, this song, hilariously titled "Hey John, What's Your Name Again?" is really good. I remember the music video when it was new. Haaa... those were the days.
Even with K-Pop as my favourite genre of music nowadays, that STILL hasn't stolen my love for hard rock music. Whenever I run into a K-BAND I jump for joy! My favourite of them all is FTIsland. They have SUCH good music, it gives me J-Rock vibes, and their stuff is just so good. I think my favourite from them right now is definitely "Take Me Now" which is just amazing, I also love the lyrics (press CC for subs).
Even my favourite kpop boy group, B.A.P, has delved into the realm of hard rock before. I love them due to their versatility, they can do hip hop, cute style, regular pop, jazzy, R&B, etc etc.! but when they decide to do hard rock, I am always ELATED. Their heaviest track to date currently comes off their Rose single entitled "Dystopia". So if you like heavy rock with excellent vocals mixed with rap, you'll probably love this. Don't let their pretty elegant clothing for their portraits fool you, this song is BADASS!
And then there's their live version of "Punch" which originally was not a rock style song, BUT WHEN IT'S LIVE IT IS! (Daehyun's note holds are epic).
I will probabyl share more of my fave rock music later, but I will stop for now before I spam xD

Been really into some Dragonforce lately. A band I didn't used to be a fan of but have grown more fond over time since listening to their recent albums. Picked up their Re-Powered Within remaster of The Power Within and it sounds really good.
