Just discovered a great band - Diablo Swing Orchestra
Thanks to Free Albums Galore :D

Diablo Swing Orchestra - The Butcher’s Ballroom

"There is an operatic feel throughout the tracks and an intensity that hold up marvelously through every musical twist. There are actually two vocalists, male and female, and these two work to good effect on “Rag Doll Physics”, a weird cross between Wagner and Ozzy Osbourne. Just about when I thought my head might explode, soprano and guitar make love on the gorgeous ballad “D’Angelo”. However if you really want to get the sense of this album start at the first track with “Balrog Boogie”, a full-assault barrage of swing and metal that has to be heard to believe."

1. Wow. Their songs have an interesting sound.
I'm going to have to go back and listen to them again some time when I'm not so tired so I can get a real opinion of them. :P

2. I just found them on youtube as well.
Lots of live vids, but the sound quality isn't always that great.

Glad you liked what you heard :)
