  • Well..... kudos for trying ..... but don't try again, my ears are hurting. I can handle death metal but I can't handle mutilated Shostakovich.

  • Hell yeah! Do Shosty String Quartet No.10 in A Flat Major, Op. 118: "Allegretto furioso" movement and I will spend all day hitting the "like" button :). It has to be at speed tho....

  • It's doesn't have the power it should have, but good try guys.

  • bad idea.

  • drums need work. otherwise, pretty decent.

  • 1:05.....That is pretty badass =] I'm playing this quartet now, but hearing that made me smile =] That was cool.

  • tighten it up a bit. Nice arrangement.

  • Good try...violin got it right, guitar solo also good - but the rhythm is totally off, maybe because it's actually really hard to nail. Hey, turns out Shosta rocked the rockers.

  • That was actually alot better than it could have been. This version is lacking the sheer brutality that Shosty intended, though. There's a really easy fix for that: PLAY THE S*#& OUT OF THOSE F-ING DRUMS AND CRANK THE FREAKING BASS!!! This is classical METAL, man!! Metal meaning 'freakin raw' and classical meaning 'ensemble'. Put it together and you get a 'f-ing raw ensemble'. In this the guitarist and violinist tear it up (very nice by the way) but the bass and drums are virtually non-existent.

  • lulz

  • i dont care...good for you guys
