I was thinking more along the lines of the "1812 Overture"; you know, the one with the cannons. The 1964 Mercury mono recording with Antal Dorati/Minneapolis Symphony is about the best that I have heard.

Can't say I'm familiar with that one old boy. I do heartily recommend the Telarc 1979 recording with Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Symphony, however. It comes with a "health warning" for your speakers because of the real cannon (not recommended for headphones).

By Jove, for real classical "heavy metal" though (take note GG), it's hard to beat Stokowski and the London Symphony performing Wagner, what!
