    Depends. If you're talking about rock bands, chamber rock, post-rock and folk rock/folk metal are genres that often specialize in violin.
    _ Genesis
    _ Kamelot
    _ Pure Reason Revolution
    _ VNV Nation
    _ More Tribe

    King Crimson
    Trans-Siberian Orchestra
    Ne Obliviscaris

    I don't think any of these bands have permanent violinists, but they have violins in some songs.

    Actually there's violin in every Ne Obliviscaris song. The "clean" singer does violin.
