Rock n Roll w/Strings


IMO, this is generally a terrible idea.
But....when done right (a rarity, IME), it can be great (per the attached clip).
Anyone else have recommendations along this line.

Apocalyptica may rock a bit too hard for many tastes as it's right on the edge of Heavy Metal, but these guys are very talented indeed. Saw them in concert once when they backed Metallica. Wouldn't expect a string trio to work in a rock 'n' roll atmosphere, but it does. Quite impressively I might ad.
