Theres a lot better symphomic/power metal, they don't do anything to really distinguish themselves too greatly. I love Tarja's voice, and the orchestral work IS good. However, bands like Kamelot, Ayreon, and Blind Guardian do similar stuff but better, and are a lot more experimental (namely Ayreon, but definitely not Kamelot's Ghost Opera album! xP).
