Prepare for a lesson in metal violins you won’t soon forget. From the early folk fare of Mama’s Boys and hectic arpeggios of violin shredders Mark Wood and The Great Kat to the heavy doom of My Dying Bride and death metal of At the Gates, delicate yet dark violins are woven into the material of metal music. Join host Ian Christe for an overview of rosin and horsehair spanning three decades, with tracks by Therion, Turisas, Eluveitie, Phlebotomized, Epica, Celtic Frost, and more!

Pretty sick that people can play metal music with a violin I am very impressed.
