If you like power metal there are many bands I can recomend, from the more well known helloween, iced earth, hammerfall, nevermore (though somtimes they cant really be called power), and blind guradian, to the lesser known Dream Evil.
if you want a very different sound, then the avant garde band Fantomas is a good thing to lsiten to (dont let the fact that slayers drummer is a member, the sound is COMPLEATLY different). It was formed from two of the members of mr bungle....who I dont think can be confined to a genre.
If you want to go to somthing lighter, then the bands moi dix mois, and newer dir en grey albums, have a metal twist to the usual j rock that japan is known for (e.g. x japan. malice mizer, and old dir en grey, all great bands, though maybe to light for what you are looking for.)
