Here's some heavy metal for you... Jim Matheos, guitarist and songwriter from the progressive metal band Fates Warning, oft thought of as a Queensryche copy, or, like Queensryche (who developed at nearly the same time, on the left coast instead of the right) was compared to Iron Maiden...
Released on Metal Blade Records, even.
Typical heavy metal here: violin, cello, and acoustic guitar (at most; sometimes it's just acoustic guitar).
Yep.
One of my mom's friends was friends with one of their mothers ~ probably Jim's, but we never found out ~ and her review of Fates Warning was: "I've heard their music, and all I can say is they're loud. I'm glad I don't let my boys listen to that."
This is from Jim's first solo album First Impressions
