Moonlight Sonata is the 2nd EP and the final release from American progressive metal band The Human Abstract.[1] The EP was released on February 14, 2012, and is a cover of all three parts of Ludwig van Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata".[2] [3]
Guitars for the album were recorded by Dean Herrera with production from Will Putney.[4] [5]
The ensemble likens the song to “Dean Shreds Beethoven” while Axl Rosenberg of MetalSucks describes the albums as "the best two bucks you'll ever spend today". Rosenberg goes on to say that the band added heavy metal to the song, and that the song purports that there exists "distinct and definite connection between classical music and metal".[1]
