Cello Warfare

Post by KRG » Mon Dec 01, 2008 8:55 am

lol at first I was thinking, you have got to be kidding me! This is Apocalyptica. After I listened to a lot of it, I became more and more impressed. This stuff will get your parents and grandparents listening to Metallica and they'll never be the wiser. :lol:

Wow! This is really cool. Do they cover other metal bands?

Drums are used in this song by them:

I've been watching them on Youtube for a while now. They have a new song out with a real singer, it's pretty good.

This one is their most notable right now as it's all over the radio. Drums, electric Cello's, singing, all that. Pretty catchy!

Hmm, won't let me post any of that song, probably because it's so new? But you can listen to them on youtube.

That is from Worlds Collide, their latest album. I've been listening to Apocalyptica since '99 and have all of their albums from 'plays Metallica on four cellos' (all covers, natch) through to Worlds collide that came out this summer. I even got to see them perform live this summer in Toronto. Excellent live.

They've moved away from doing covers over the years, the last album with any on it was Cult, I think. They usually have a few songs on an album now with lyrics, and they've redone a few earlier ones with lyrics, labeling them vol. 2 ie Path and Path vol. 2

I know I have a songlist somewhere, I'll edit this to include it later for anyone interested

Ah, this is easier The wiki on Apocalyptica

And this is Offical site Theres some streaming songs there and all that. decent site

Personally my favorite song from Worlds Collide at this point is Helden which is basicly a cover of David Bowie's Heroes, in german, sung by Till Lindeman, of Rammstein. Really fun :D
