Steve ‘N’ Seagulls have shared a video for their banjo-led version of Guns N’ Roses song November Rain.
It’s lifted from their latest album, Brothers In Farms – and is the latest song to get the bluegrass treatment from the Finnish outfit.
Tomi ‘Remmel’ Tajakka, who is on vocal, guitar and mandolin duties in Steve ‘N’ Seagulls, tells Metal Assault: “When I was younger in the 90s, I listened to a lot of Megadeth, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Pantera, Sepultura, all this kind of stuff. There must be a good song, a good riff or a good melody that you can start working around.

Describing how they made their latest album, he adds: “We tried about 30 to 40 songs that never quite found their new form or their place, so we just skipped them. It’s usually an idea that one of us or some of us come up with. That’s mainly how it goes.”
The promo follows their covers of Iron Maiden tracks Aces High and The Trooper. They also released their own version ofAC/DC’s Thunderstruck in 2014.
