The only examples that I can think of is "Set The World on Fire" by Symphony X or maybe something by Iced Earth.

All genres are welcome, not just power metal. So, what are some songs with aggressive verses and catchy, sing-along choruses?

Some Iron Maiden songs, in my opinion, have a tendancy to have a sing-along vibe, like "The Number of the Beast" and "2 Minutes to Midnight."

These songs are ballsy with catchy choruses. But keep in mind most of these are speedy as *(&^!

Vhaldamar - House of war, Traitor, Vhaldamar, Fight to the end... Pretty much everything they have done. Make sure to check out their cover of helloweens Gorgar!

Iron savior - Deadly Sleep (Kai on Vox. The bands best song in my opinion. Also their cover of Helloweens Phantoms of death is amazing.)

Helloween - Anything from their first album. Catchiest album I have heard!..in case you haven't realized this is my favorite album ever Tongue)

Stormwarrior - Too many to mention! But some off the top of my head: Odinn's Warriors, Valhalla, Bound by the oath, Sign of the warlord, Blood eagle, etc. They also did a cover of Helloween's heavy metal is the Law thats a must, also a cover of Turn the cross upside down that is amzing.

Gaia Epicus - Most of my favorite songs with catchy chorus is on the album Victory. Songs include, well, Victory, iron Curtains, Revenge is sweet, and a few others. Beware, some cheesey stuff on here aswell but the songs I mention are damn good.

Sentenced - The Cold White Light

Probably my all-time favorite sing-along metal album.

Anaal Nathrakh have some extremely heavy, punishing verses, but then comes these huge soaring choruses with amazing clean vocals and a beautiful vibe. Its amazing how they make such a huge contrast work this well. Check 'em out, especially songs like "Between Shit And Piss We Are Born" and "In The Constellation Of The Black Widow" Big grin

Try Demon Hunter's album The Triptych!!!
"deteriorate" isn't very heavy but the sing along value is extremely high, with its harmonic catchy (non-metal) singing
But the other songs on that album will satisfy that riff and growl craving

"Shatter the Empyrean" is another example of this
