about

Classic heavy metal songs played with traditional jazz instruments. Proof that distorted electric guitar is not required to create a huge sound that still rocks hard.

Vinnie Corbo invited the world’s finest musicians from the country’s most prestigious music conservatories to his demonic studio lair in Van Nuys, California. Each musician was seduced into drinking a secret elixer of Dom Perignon, Kopi Luwak Coffee and Blood-Orange Sherbert. They sequentially fell into a hypnotic trance state and reanimated as The Distinguished Devils of Refined Metal. This new ensemble of demonic possession now performs Vinnie Corbo’s sophisticated arrangements of classic heavy metal songs with a combination of powerful energy and seasoned refinement.
