(Classic Rock) The man behind the banjo cover of Slayer's Raining Blood and the backwards version of Metallica's Enter Sandman is at it again - this time taking on the classical masterpiece by Johann Sebastian Bach in a piece he calls Bach Metal.

YouTube star Rob Scallon has recorded a metal interpretation of Bach's Badinerie, which was part of the German composer's Suite No. 2 in B minor, BWV 1067, written between 1738 and 1739.

Scallon says: "Something I found really cool about this little experiment was just how well this composition worked with this style of music. Turns out Bach is pretty brutal." Check out the metal cover and the original version here.
