VIOLIN Metal? Lead VTAR? Find Out Now on The Violution on the Distorted Dialogue Podcast!

Welcome to Distorted Dialogue, the interview podcast from The Metal Institute of Thrashology.In this episode, I’m joined by The Violution for a conversation about electric violin in metal, the band’s musical roots, and the unique gear and ideas that shape their sound. We talk with JLynn about her journey as a longtime violinist in metal, how she developed her role in heavy music, and how the violin became such a major part of the her identity. Performed with virtuoso abilities that remind me of Steve Vai, or Joe Satriani, and her sounds seem just as experimental and progressive. We also get into Jennifer’s fretted VTAR, a violin-style instrument designed with a fretted layout, and discuss how it changes the way she approaches melody, rhythm, performance and songwriting. We also delve into tone chasing, pedals and her Fractal Audio sponsorship making her their only violinist on their roster. Along the way, we talk about The Violution’s background, their influences, and what makes their blend of metal, hard rock, violin-driven instrumentation and cinematic energy stand out.If you’re a fan of electric violin metal, symphonic metal, instrumental rock, violin in hard rock, or unconventional metal instrumentation, this episode is for you.Topics include:The Violution interviewJLynn interviewElectric violin in metalViolin in hard rock and heavy musicJennifer Lynn’s fretted VTAR, and electric Flying V ViolinThe band’s background and influencesSongwriting, gear and performanceSubscribe for more metal interviews, podcast episodes, underground band spotlights, album reviews and heavy music discussion.
