Turisas' cover of Rasputin

Enjoy. It's genius. And accordions are FUCKING metal.

Oh. My. GOD!!! I totally love that song. That was amazing.
There is a bit, I think at 1:42 left to go, when he shouts "LOVERRR OF THE RUSSIAN QUEEEEEEEN... THERE WAS A CAT THAT REALLY WAS GOOOOOOOOOOOONE" that somehow made me feel like everything in my life had just fallen magically into place. "Oh, THAT'S what was missing. It's all going to be alright..."
Only one thing - he didn't say, "Oh, those Russians" at the end"...

Yeah, that was the only drawback but my GOD they do it amazingly well live. Plus he makes up for it by proclaiming to be a Disco gig. AND the fiddler has been known to rant about how violin solos are better than guitar solos.

Aye, no worries. ;)

Bottom line is, that's an ace song. And Turisas do a fantastic cover of it. Plus their accordion player is more metal than I could ever be.

I have to admit, I wouldn't have thought accordions were that metal until this video, and that guy rocks! I love his scary death metal face towards the end, posing with his accordion. Brilliant. Might have to add it to my facebook!

Do it! And then if Turisas are playing near where you are? GO SEE THEM!
