No particular order...

Blind Guardian

Dragonforce

If the list were slightly longer, I'd find room for Hammerfall, Sonata Arctica, and Lordi.

Just because a band's newer material doesn't measure up to their old stuff doesn't mean that old stuff is retroactively bad.

4. Trivium
5. Arch Enemy (only the stuff with angela gossow though )
