    (Hope i posted this in the right place)

    Just wondering has anybody else heard of Todd Mark Rubenstein and his string quartet who play covers of a load of famous bands and not so famous bands stretching from Rush, REM, Coldplay all the way to Ac/Dc, Switchfoot and Audioslave and even The Beatles.

    They may be in the same vein as Apocalyptica but id have to say that some of their versions outstrip the originals.

    Response?

    I got a copy of the OK Computer one from a friend a while back. Its very good also quite interesting to hear the songs from a different perspective, especially with no electronics.

    Ive always had a soft spot for covers, i guess a new twist on a song is almost always good in my book... ill look into them

    EDIT: What the hell, its like electro funk mixed with Sonic the Hedgehog music... nice though
