Tribute to Mastadon The Taste Of Chaos Ensemble is amazing. Progressive metal in classical variation sounds much better and natural than more popular styles(alternative etc.)

you should listen to The Taste of Chaos Ensamble, their Mastodon - Levithan Cover album is by far the best string tribute out there. And i've heard most of them.
