Rock and Piano

Rock has been defined by steel, flying v's, and distortion every since someones amp was damaged and delivered a different and unique sound.  Does rock really work well with other instruments?  I guess it depends on who you ask.  In my opinion it didnt work for Metallica on their S&M album.  It works well for Apocolyptica though and it seems to be a good groove for Ben Folds.

Ben Folds has a different sound and can go from loud to soft, mellow to vulgar.  It is a good mix sometimes.  Without the band Ben Folds Five here is my favorite song of his going solo.
