Mixing Rock/Metal with Classical: should not be done
Claim: rock and metal music, while perfectly good when combined with folk elements, seem to totally suck in every way at every attempt to combine them with classical music elements. I've never come across it done well on a single occasion. Also, virtually all operatic metal is horrid.
Bottomline: imo, attempting a metal/rock/classical hybrid does not have good results and should not be done. DISCUSS! |
Why not?

It works for Mekong Delta with their album Dances of Death in which they perform Mussorgsky's Night on the Bare Mountain. But then again, they're not the typical 'lolz if i do a bit of shredding it's neo-classical!' band.
It also works very well for bands like King Crimson. I like Therion too. |

How many times has this actually come across though?

You'll see your wrong when you listen to Classico by Tenacious D
|
Nothing works as well imho.

considering that a large portion of metal is strongly classical influenced and most, if not all, shredding solos are classical based, I think you are wrong.
