Guns N’ Roses Meet Two Cellos: Monday Mashup

You may rec­og­nize Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser, aka 2CELLOS, from their rock­ing arrange­ment of Michael Jack­son’s Smooth Crim­i­nal ear­li­er this year. This time, the clas­si­cal­ly-trained musi­cians have done them­selves one bet­ter, with a fre­net­ic, hard-hit­ting take on GNR’s “Wel­come To The Jun­gle” that would give Slash him­self a run for his hard­core cred.

2CELLOS are cur­rent­ly tour­ing with Elton John, and you can pre-order their debut CD, which includes cov­ers of Nir­vana’s “Smells Like Teen Spir­it” and U2’s “With or With­out You.”
