Moments Worth Listening For

The way the cello mimics the heavy, sliding bassline of Change (In the House of Flies) with a deep, resonant vibrato.

The aggressive, percussive bowing on Engine No. 9 that captures the frantic energy of the original rap-metal track.

The haunting, high-register violin melody on Knife Prty that replaces the iconic vocal screams with piercing string glissandos.
