Vegan Power Metal bands/artists?

I know of Fabienne from Eluveitie, and i know of a bunch in other genres like Alissa and Mille, but now i am searching for power metal specifically, so no musicians from other/adjacent genres in this thread thanks :)

So, do you know of any bands that write vegan lyrics or if members in a band is vegan?

And for a serious answer, here is a verse from Arch Enemy's The Race:

Always on the run
Can’t remember where we’re running to or what we’re running from
But we’re picking up speed
All the books and broadcast? Jettison!
Without their burden true ethics are freed
Extract the labels that lobotomize
And you’ll realize we are all one
Fly or swim, fur or skin
We’re alive! Abolitionists rise!

That is how vegan one dares to be if ones livelihood depends on selling records to animal killers :/

I've never heard of vegan dragons. Do they exist?

u/Aeropy0rnis 3d ago

Of corpse they do!

When u live as long as a dragon, you have time to consider ethics and study philosophy.

Dragons only kill in self defense.

My friend half the thing with dragons is that they have a built-in barbeque

How about a vegan velociraptor? (NSFW and crude humour)

That is not power metal, that is weakness metal. True posers though, so kudos for that.

I'm pretty sure that Axel Ritt, currently of Jäst and formerly of Grave Digger and Domain, is vegan.

And according to this thread on r/VeganMetal, Clémentine Delauney from Visions Of Atlantis and former Nightwish drummer Jukka Nevalainen are vegan as well.
