Apocalyptica

[jason]

I just discovered this group this morning. Has anyone else heard of them?

They've made their name by making Metallica covers played by 4 cellos. Some of their original music is decent, but I'm especially in love with the all cello tunes.

Agree completely. I really love stringed instruments, but I'm not very fond of Metallica. Their own tunes are very nice, though.

I am in love with Apocalyptica, of course being a cellist there aren't that many main street cellist groups to aspire to. But I heard about this group when I was in highschool, I love that they're all electric ... it is really alot of fun for me

I actually agree with you there, at least in respect to everything they've done in the last 13 years. I like their stuff prior to that. It changed American metal forever.

Long forgotten thread ...

But ,yes, they are awesome !
As i think, their most successful album is Cult.

//Also, even their lyric songs often are much more expressive than classics.
