Classical music combined with metal - ekoorb333 - 05-03-2014
Genres like symphonic metal that use classic instruments and melodies are becoming popular- like Apocalyptica or Nightwish - how do you guys feel about these different genres combining?

Welcome aboard MD, ekoorb! I like the symphonic metal genre!....Within Temptation, Kamelot, Epica, Arcturus, Haggard, Sirenia, Tristana, even Evanescence to a degree..they are all great!!!!

I really enjoy this mix of Romantic Era Classical with Blackened Doom Metal.

I can't say I care for Edenbridge. They seem like one of those Power Metal/Symphonic Metal bands which just sounds too dull, cheesy, cliched, and pop-like to me. Sorry.
But, I agree Sigh is great. I thought Sigh's incorporation of Mozart's Requiem into their album Hangman's Hymn was absolutely wonderful.
I'm also surprised no one's mentioned Yngwie Malmsteen. Here's a song by him I enjoy.

Some crossover bands I have discovered include Apocalyptica, who play metal songs on cellos, and Opeth, who have a lot of classically inspired music in their songs.

Glad you have discovered my favourite metal band OPETH !!!! Saw them live last year and they did not disappoint ! They have a new album Pale Communion coming out in August !
