Rip-Roarin' Ukulele Cover of Thrash-Metal Classic Might Be Your Best Tension-Buster of the Day

But musician Rob Scallon has smashed that stereotype to smithereens with his video cover of “War Ensemble" by Slayer, shredding like crazy on the four-stringed instrument, Metal Insider noted.

If you happen upon Scallon's YouTube page, you'll see he's quite adept on a number of other instruments, including bass guitar, six-string guitar, and (wow!) eight-string guitar.
