Does Opera fit into the metal schematic? Can metalheads be sophisticated? Hell yes! It started with The Who and Queen and has been taken to a new level with bands like Savatage and Avantasia. Join Genghis and Ragman as they class this joint up by talking of the arts, metal style. G & R give you the best options for the more highbrow bands out there today. Next, the boys are joined by Producers/Musicians Bob Kulick and Brett Chassen for a one on one two as they discuss their latest tribute project, Sin-Atra, as well as what we can look forward to in the future.
