minus-squareRhynoplaz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up23arrow-down1·4 days agoI’m a fan of mashing two genres together. It’s recognizable songs in a new format! Bluegrass covers of Rock songs Metal covers of classical music Classical covers of Pop songs Video game music played by a Big Band Wild obscure shit!
minus-squarestringere@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 days agoThat kinda describes Ween’s oeuvre.

minus-squareAdm_Drummer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 days agoYou may really enjoy Bridge City Sinners then! They do mostly Bluegrass/Folk but they have this metal vibe to a lot of their stuff. Their vocalist is fantastic and the song I linked feels like I’d be in the middle of a Cowboy Saloon barfight.

minus-squareLemminary@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 days agoThe Norfolk Orchestra has some neat covers of Radiohead. Definitely worth listening to.
minus-squareDrSleepless@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·4 days agoFrog Leap Studios has some great metal. Covers of other genres
minus-squaresome_guy@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 days agoSystem of a Down did an excellent cover of “Shame on a N,” which probably wouldn’t fly today. Plus one for awesome metal guitarists playing Tchaikovsky and the like. Cello groups covering the likes of Aphex Twin and Nine Inch Nails are excellent. Pretty much just trying to reenforce this comment with some examples people can find.
minus-squareRhynoplaz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 days agoI’m a big System fan, so I have heard that one before. The first time I heard it i was like “I guess if Wu Tang’s ok with it, it’s allowed.” 🤷🏻♂️😂
