this is the first time i actually heard the piano! the first million times this song has come up i just thought it was broken or something and i skipped the rest of the song.
*slaps self* STUPID HEAD!! |

Actually wait out the long pause. There's piano at the end that is just beautiful.
Where can I find more stuff that blends together classical and metal? This is awesome stuff! |
||
Why the hell was there a long a** pause in the song? I thought my speakers died..still a good song
|
||
actually, Five Iron Frenzy did a song called That's how the story ends which uses snippets from The Raven as verses. not really metal, but Ska, and good ska.

FREAKIN! AWESOME!!!
Metal and classical blend so well together! I love this stuff. Going back to what Persephone said... that gives me an idea. The whole putting Poe to metal thing.. hmmm I think I might try it sometime.. to bad I'm not very good at guitar/writi n g music and all that.. :( haha but it would be fun to try. |

Bleed in the name of IAm for his name is that which carries the Power of Creation. He has already won the War, Mark.

Great stuff. Reminds me of Trans-Siberi a n Orchestra's work from Beethoven's Last Night album. If you like this, check out Danny Alkana's "Rock the Bach" album as well.

I've always said Heavy Metal is the new classical. Having litened to both genres intently, from Bach and Vivaldi to ManoWar to Lamb of God, I can confidently say this song is yet more proof to my theory.
ManoWar did "Sting of the Bumblebee" on their Kings of Metal album. One should check that out. Bleed in the name of Satan. |

persephone is right. someone needs to do the rest of the four seasons. this song is FANTASTIC. blows my mind. major freakin shreddage.
blessed be; rock steady AK |

absolutely brilliant. first nightwish and "phantom of the opera"... now dark moor and vivaldi (hey! someone should do the rest of the four seasons)... all i need to be fully happy is for someone to release an album that's completely edgar allen poe poems set to music. the raven, of course... the conqueror worm... the haunted palace... eee! makes me happy just thinking about it!
