    Yes. Nothing says “rock” like a chamber orchestra with timpanis (that apparently require one rock per to operate). Also, who, exactly, is playing the bass here? It’s just being held there by the brass section with … likely AI-generated instruments. Is the bass holder playing a cross between a French horn and a tuba? I don’t even know what’s next to that … a trombone rescued from the aftermath of a fire?

    But really, the issue is how viola-heavy this group is. One violin to two violas is niche as hell.

      Obviously ai generated, but that’s not a bad thing—when it’s just for a laugh.

        It’s still fun to mock! Even more laughs …

            The cellist is still in position. Though, seriously, this is about the most hilarious image response I’ve ever seen. Also, viola! they’re gone.

                I will say this: It got the French horn more accurate. The strings, on the other hand … I’d sell this as “1.5 Cellos.”

                    They did rather get a bit less gold.
