I completely agree about Screamo and Grindcore completely sucking. God that shit hurts my ears, and this is coming from a Melodic Death Metal fan.
But anyway, you should check out some power metal bands and other stuff:
Tierra Santa(They're only big in Spain, but they sound a lot like Maiden and pull it off really well)
Dream Theater
Dragonforce
Power Quest
Children of Bodom(you might need to adjust to their vocals, but the music's awesome)
Opeth
Dream Evil
Edit, I see N0nsensical already suggested Opeth and other bands in the European scene. Europe is the only continent with a lot of good music nowadays, especiallly when it comes to metal. Scandinavia and germany are the best for it.
