classical music

[Whiplash402]

okay, so were all metal heads here but where do you guys stand on the classical music?

 

[meep17]

I dig it.

I especially like Antonio Vivaldi's "Seasons" and Gustav Holst's "Planets". "Am I Evil?"'s intro came from the intro to "Mars" from the... suite, I think it's called? Yeah. I also like some Beethoven, and Mozart obviously owns.

Is Aerosmith Classical music?

I love classical. I always tell people that Beethoven was the first Prog-Metal star. His symphonys were heavy and unconventional. He was also the first to include choral in a symphony.

^ Yep. And the same goes to Grieg and Bach ( not the Skid Row jerk, the real Bach). Also, as I know, Ritchie Blackmore once said that 12 Paganini's Capriccios is a-must for any self-respected guitar player.

Camille Saint-Saëns "Danse Macabre" is one of the best pieces ever written.

Didn't that Anthropologist that did that family tree of metal show, on VH1, talk about classical music and compared it to metal?

I tell you more - it kicks some major motherfuckin' ass... No bullshit here! Especially I love when those young pale ladies with eyeglasses set those big fucking bass guitars standing up and start scratching 'em with those sticks... The only thing I don't like that the frontman (usually an older fellow with mullet) always stands with his back to the mosh pit, never mind his headbanging...

[dbluntman]

I dig classical music...like troscinski, beethoven, mozart (magic flute)...
I like to think of it as early metal>>>

 

[mrthrax]
