Yeah, I'm listening to New Obscurantis Order right now... fucking awesome shit.

Yeah, it's a beautiful album. Very relaxing. Kinda like a "groovier" My Dying Bride...

check out the band "Haggard" . I've only heard "Awaking the centuries" and it's very good... they have like 16+ members so you'll have a lot clasic stuff like cello , violin, piano , etc..

This is absolutely not metal but progressive rock.

Give the older Kansas a go. I think you will love it. Try "Point Of Know Return" or "Leftoverture".

Skyclad always have a violin in their songs

and if you have time, check on mp3.com the band Tenebrarum! listen to the songs "rites" first, then "battle" and "visions"

also, a band called Tanqeray makes heavy use of an electric violin: www.tanqeray.com

what's electric violin? any difference?

I guess a difference could be achieved if they started using distortion effects on the violin man, that would be a different sound!!

 

[krapylet]

Cradle of Filth's cover of Fear of the Dark features a bit violin.. And theatre of tragedy is a good band!

 

[frigidpony]

Again, not metal but Remains Of The Day have a violin player. They are more in the dark, crusty Neurosis vein.

Not true. As far as I can remember (don't have the cds with me) Jesper Jarold played the violin on TRITSIO and Ylva Wåhlin played it on TSD. Jesper never played anything on any ATG release.
