- Blind Guardian – Nightfall In Middle-Earth (1998) Though some may claim they have more in common with power metal, Blind Guardian also deserve a place on any roll call of symphonic metal’s finest, thanks largely to the way they compose and arrange their songs.
- Rhapsody – Symphony Of Enchanted Lands (1998) Few albums have attained a finer, cleaner blend of orchestral sounds and heavy metal than Symphony Of Enchanted Lands.
- Haggard – Awaking The Centuries (2000) The name of Haggard may be unfamiliar to casual fans of symphonic metal but the Germans have existed since the 1990s, albeit in more death metal-style earlier incarnations.
- Symphony X – V: The New Mythology Suite (2000) New Jersey’s Symphony X have been blending symphonic, neo-classical and power metal with progressive elements for more than two decades to create some of the most striking and colourful music around.
