Introducing: Van Canto

A little background before you hit play. Here is the first paragraph of the "band" area of their official website:

We play Heavy Metal A Capella. Melodic metal songs, arranged for 5 singers and one drummer. All instruments that would be played by musicians in a regular metalband are imitated by our voices. Bass, guitars, solos, keyboard sounds. On top we put two lead singers, a male one and a female one. But we left the drums what they are, as we do not do disco pop. And having a drummer like Bastian it would be a shame not to let him play.

This is a cover of Metallica's "Battery". Today I heard their cover of "Master Of Puppets" on the radio, but it hasn't been released yet, as it's on their upcoming album. If I find it in the meantime, I will certainly post it here - it's incredible! If you are familiar with "Battery" you know it's also a pretty complex song, and so far I'm very impressed by these guys.



They also write their own stuff. In addition to visiting their website, you can find more of their work HERE.
