Pittsburgh's Silverblood have been delivering American power metal since 2013, channeling the anthemic, fist-raised spirit of the genre's European forebears through a Rust Belt lens. Their sound combines muscular riffwork with the kind of dramatic, sky-reaching vocal delivery the style demands.
Silverheart is a melodic power metal band from Rosario, Argentina, formed in April 2011, who began with covers before developing their own English-language songwriting. They released the EP "The Dark Lighthouse" in 2014, the debut full-length "Forsaken Words" in December 2015, the second album "Destination" in April 2019, and the Queen tribute EP "Queens of Metal" in 2020.
Heavy/power metal band from Francisco Morato, São Paulo, formed in 2017 under the name Silverthorn before adopting the Silverstorm name in 2018. The band released their debut EP Resurrection in December 2024 as an independent release, featuring five tracks including "Chase the Light" and the self-titled "Silverstorm."
Silverymoon deliver power metal from Prague, bringing anthemic melodies and soaring compositions to the Czech metal scene. Formed in 2022, they channel the grandeur of the European power metal tradition.
Silvis Vetus ("Ancient Forest" in Latin) blend symphonic power and gothic metal from the Catalan village of Corca, layering orchestral grandeur over dark romantic themes. Active since 2017, they bring forest-dwelling mysticism to the Emporda region.
Sinequanon deliver power and thrash metal from Barcelona, combining anthemic grandeur with aggressive velocity. Formed in 2021, their name (from the Latin "sine qua non," meaning "essential") promises compositions of fundamental importance.
Sered's Sinners Moon pair symphonic and power metal from the small Trnava-region town since 2017. Their lunar-transgression name channels the celestial light illuminating sin into orchestral compositions from western Slovakia.
Hewitt, New Jersey's Sirens formed in 2020 working across metalcore, deathcore, and death metal, combining breakdown-driven aggression with increasingly extreme sonic territory and reflecting the evolution of the East Coast heavy music scene.
Los Angeles outfit formed in 2014 who fuse the twin-guitar melodicism of Scandinavian death metal with power metal's soaring sensibility, resulting in music that is both technically demanding and built around hooky, anthemic structures. Their sound draws equally from In Flames-era melodeath and the more grandiose end of American power metal.
