Can You Make Metal Music With A Balalaika?

Kinda sorta, according to Rob Scallon.

Rob Scallon has a tendency to make any instrument he touches metal and he's taken on the Russian folk instrument balalaika to prove it. The end result is relatively heavy, but without any distortion, the track Scallon has presented to the world sounds more like an interlude between insanely heavy bits than anything else.

As an added bonus, Scallon talks about writing a metal song with the balalaika below.

Here are some of his past videos:
