Nightwish - Wishmaster (don't care what anyone says, but the first 3 or 4 Nightwish albums are great). 
Nevermore - Dead Heart in a Dead World
Nile - In Their Darken Shrines
Lost Horizon - Awakening the World

From memory, Swedish band who only released two albums in the 00s.  Really good heavy/power metal.  As Paul said vocals are amazing. Worth checking out

I've always thought of it as a more muscular-sounding Seventh Son.

"Welcome Back", "World Through My Fateless Eyes" and "Sworn in the Metal Wind" are the highlights  :abbath:
