Apocalyptica

Apocalyptica is and awesome band featuring three guys playing chellos. this song is called Bittersweet featuring Vil Vallo from Him (which is an okay band but Vil is pretty cool) and the guy from the Rasmus (can't remember his name) check it out

If I remember correctly, aren't they the group that covered a Metallica album just using their cellos?? I personally think it is a pretty cool concept. I've been wanting to buy a copy of their albums, but sadly they are not cheap!

That's what made them famous in the beginning. Now they've got 7 albums after the one with the Metallica covers. Most of the songs are composed by Eicca Toppinen (he's sort of the boss) and there are a few that Perttu wrote. They have like 7 or 8 other songs featuring guest vocals.

I went to a concert of theirs this year, at the opening of the tourist season here in Bulgaria. I can post a few photos if anyone wants me to.

 

And Apocalyptica has a drummer too *grumbles* Why does everyone forget Mikko???
