Ran into this guy on youtube today...and after watching a couple of his videos, I can't deny I'm somewhat impressed although a little "interesting to get used to" to say the very least. I've never head of a "shred violinist" and he puts dance and kung fu into his getup as well.

Biography- http://www.blackviolin.com/biography.php

Youtube Video: "Spartan"

Anybody ever heard of this guy?! I apologize, can't seem to get the youtube embedding to work.

PS- Hope this was a worthy first topic/post!

You should search for the album Voodoo Violince from 1991 by Mark Wood. Awesome electric shred violin going on there.

Violins =/= Metal
Except if they invent a violin with distortion.

There are loads of violins with distortion and such. Just listen to the album I mentioned.
