Classical Rock music?

[Bei337]

Lately, I've been listening to Bond, X Japan, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra. I found myself attracted to this style of music.

So I would like more recomandations!

btw, if u havn't listened to any of them, try Bond's Explosive, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Wizards in Winter.

You could also try Vanessa Mae's "Storm", or on the opposite side of the spectrum Queen, Metallica and the Scorpions have all done albums with full orchestra's.

Dark Ride - Classical rock as in Classical music with rock in it, listen to Trans-Siberian Orchestra and you'll know right off what we're talking about.

There's no guitar in Vanessa Mae but it tries some similar stuff on a few songs but with a violin. Try a song or two and see if you like it.

I agree, Vanesa Mae's "Storm" is very good.

I was talking about X Japan in particular, mAcOdIn.

They are not classical rock, they're "Visual Kei". ;)

The only thing that associates them a little bit with classical music are the occasional piano parts in some songs.

You mean Classic rock I take it ?

If you do well then the Doors or Queen or The (yes) Stones would qualify.

Yeah, it's definitely not Classic Rock. It's like 'rocked-up Classical'

That video that was posted yesterday was basically Pachelbels Canon in D with electric guitar ornamentation.

My recommendation is Apocalyptica. They did a complete album of Metallica covers. No vocals.

Good stuff right there.

I like Metallica's S&M Concert/Album as well.
