An overarching term representing the majority of bands in the following genres : Power Metal, Battle Metal, Folk Metal, Symphonic Metal
A few typical bands would include, Dragonforce, Firewind, Turisas, Nightwish, Blind Guardian, Kamelot, Within Temptation etc. etc.
You could include bands like Amon Amarth, however the growling vocals & lack of keyboards sets these types of bands slightly apart.
With Quest Metal bands you tend to be able to actually hear the vocals and lyrics clearly, some use a more operatic style, choirs etc.
Growling vocals are less prominent.
