The pressure that the cellist puts on the string and the distance of the contact from the bridge is essentially what makes the distorted sound. Because it takes a lot of pressure, they use a more robust bow to make the sound heavier.
oh how I hated having to do vibrato on a violin...I could never get it right. I quit a decade before I heard of these guys and I wish I could try again...they are so inspiring!!
I love these guys They are smart, intelligent and very handsome .I bet they are just fun to hang out with also. Teach me teach me.(raises hand) lol. Love you Apocalyptica. Keep on making great music.
I think there were differences, but blast it I'm distracted! First it was the cat in the background, and then I got to looking too much at Eicca and had to start daydreaming. And it doesn't help that Perttu is sitting right next to him. By the time I get over dreaming about Eicca, I flip to dreaming about the other. I'll just have to start the video over.
I hear the differance,,these guys are fawkin wonderful! I totally dont understand why the radio stations bomb us with crap when there are awsome artists like these guys,,,and they are eye candy! hubba!
awesome... i love the way all the vibratos are really different, also... COME TO AUSTRALIA YOU DAMNED CELLOISTS!!!! srsly... i love this band and wanna see them live...
The black horsehair is much coarser and rougher than white, giving a lot more bite. Also the rosin they're using is for double bass (upright bass), which also gives more bite. The white horsehair is better for softer passages, the black for grittier, more hard-hitting metal. (I'm a cellist as well.)
"so you mean that French, they invented the nail coloring in the cello?" XD Poor Perttu who was struggling to find his words and make some sense of what he was trying to say and Eicca being massively unhelpful throwing him such a curved ball! This video is so ridiculous but are are trying so hard to be serious! I love them so much!
This appeared in my recommendations, so I watched it again. If that is Eicca's old house, and if the cats he currently has were the same cats he had when this video was shot, then I know the name of the one in the background. XP (Kirsi posts pictures of the cats all the time. Eicca does too, once in a while.)
Pertu also pulls out a bow with black horse hair when they start playing riffs because it is thicker and stronger. particularly for double bass but apocalyptica is too awesome for particular. :)
@ApocalypticaVideos or whomever! How does a mere mortal like me go about getting one of those awesomeblack haired bows you use for the heavier style of playing? Can you get them from a normal luthier or are they custom made? Thanks!!
After a while you do stop tapping automatically. However once you get carried away like they do when they play..... Trust me, from experience I notice that I start tapping my foot without knowing. It's not just to count beats, but also to help focus on the music.
Hey me too!!! They were awesome. For me, to play anything fast, I have to start off slow. Start very slow and make sure it's in tuned and smooth. Once I play it to to point were I memorize it, I continue to play it a bit faster and faster until I get to the tempo I want it at.
"... but because I am Finnish - halfly Finnish, halfly (something I don't understand)" "Halfly idiot." (or something like that) Haha I could listen to these two talk all day. Especially Eicca :P But how exactly did Perttu say nail polish helps him play? And who is that in the background? Mikko?
How? Perttu is a musical genius and frickin crazy just like the rest of them lol they've been trained their entire lives to be insane musical geniuses.
played cello in middle and high school....never could maintain ongoing instruction and so I sucked and abandoned it 😞 they make me wish I could've stuck with it
PiercedPika I suppose I got lucky. Would’ve gone the same way as you did had I not been picked up by a professional cellist in a strings program at a high school I am going to now. I see a lot of cellists, guitarists and bassists from thrash, death, neoclassical, industrial, and even electronic genres as influences, because I want to take those 3 genres of extreme music, and combine them.
nice makes me want to learn how to play cello even more now. and where were they and what was up with Perttus leg? German vibrato...? really we play different cool
These guys are pure amazing talent and so gorgeous! I’ve loved this group since the beginning! 🥰😘😍
They work so well together. I think that's why Apocalyptica are such a good band. They know eachother so well.
They're so adorable and funny!
I want Apocalyptica as my cello teachers!
Viyo Niiranen Paavo actually does lessons.
@@echo795 wait what
Me too🎻🎻😍
These two are cracking me up. Their sense of humor is awesome. Also, 5:00 -- that is such an awesome demonstration .
it's such a big pleasure listening perttu and eicca talk and teach!
It's pretty hard to play metal in a cello. My respect to these men.
I love how awesome they are! I didn't think it was possible to move ur fingers that fast!
Oh. My. God - I have waited so long for Apocalyptica to do something like this. More pleeeeaaaassseeee!!!
Love that part:
"Can't see any difference."
"No, no difference."
:D I love you Apocalyptica. :D
btw greetings from germany hahaha

Very interesting about the bass rosin and stonger hair. You learn something every day. ROCK ON!
Wow! Amazing! I love their acents!! Thanks for.posting this videos, guys!
Greetings from Mexico!
Cello is the sexiest beast ever, especially when you guys playing it!
FIGHT FIRE WITH FIIIIREEEE. ENDING IS NEEEAAARR. FIGHT FIRE WITH FIIIRREEEE..BURSTING WITH FEAAAR
tapping with feet=way to keep time just like pianists swaying=way to keep time
or if you're just a badass
headbanging=way to keep time
I saw a cat's tail in the background. I love them even more.
Mikko is on the couch....and he has a goose on his lap....I think I fell in love...
3:14 "I didn't see any difference"???!!! Their playing is insane!!
this is amazing! and theirs fingers and hands are moving so fast!
i love the cat hanging all over mikko in the background lol
Wow. This is the first time I've seen Perttu talk in a million years! Awesome though:)
oh how I hated having to do vibrato on a violin...I could never get it right. I quit a decade before I heard of these guys and I wish I could try again...they are so inspiring!!
I don't play the cello, but enjoyed that immensely! :) They are fast!
omg! they could just sneeze and they ROCK!!!
Their accents. Their accents. Their accents. And the cellos.
I love how they play
Take a classical artist and combine him with metal. BOOM. What you get is Apocalyptica. Just insane
I don't understand a thing about string instruments, but with teachers like these two, I'd swap my flutes for a cello ANY DAY !
So beautiful
That cat kept distracting me...lol love Apocalyptica, love the cello :)
Heavy metal musicians at work. :-)
"I don't see any difference"
hahahahahaha
Love it!
see you next year if you come back to Portland...you guys rock!!!
Cool lesson! Love this!
these people are BOSSES
wooow awesome
1:56 - 2:01 etc. Aaaaa Perttu is perfect
wonderful, apocalyptica are the best
I've laughed so much with this!!! This conversation could be taken as a parody of some Conservatoire conversations and classes.
I love these guys They are smart, intelligent and very handsome .I bet they are just fun to hang out with also. Teach me teach me.(raises hand) lol. Love you Apocalyptica. Keep on making great music.
3:12 i didn't see any difference?! hahah!

Excellent teachers
They live in a different world... and not just Dutchland world, but a music world beyond.
Perttu is tapping the floor so much!!!!!!
I hear the differance,,these guys are fawkin wonderful! I totally dont understand why the radio stations bomb us with crap when there are awsome artists like these guys,,,and they are eye candy! hubba!

Gods of the cello
I've seen this like 15 times and never noticed Mikko sitting on the couch until now.
Maravilhosos...
"so you mean that French, they invented the nail coloring in the cello?"

This video is so ridiculous but are are trying so hard to be serious! I love them so much!
woooow!! that was great!!!
that's awesome
and he's always banging his feet on the floor ^^
Los AMO mi musica APOCALYPTICA forever EICCA saludos
This appeared in my recommendations, so I watched it again. If that is Eicca's old house, and if the cats he currently has were the same cats he had when this video was shot, then I know the name of the one in the background. XP (Kirsi posts pictures of the cats all the time. Eicca does too, once in a while.)
This is so ridiculously funny. "In Luxembourg they may add another note." How did Eicca get through this without laughing?
i love this video
I thought I saw a cute kitty ... Certainly it is true I saw a cute kitty!
ohhh I love your music are great!!
Apocalyptica Up!

great! they`re amazing ^-^
Mikko just chilling in the background lol
their accents are soooo cool!!!!! :D

Pertu also pulls out a bow with black horse hair when they start playing riffs because it is thicker and stronger. particularly for double bass but apocalyptica is too awesome for particular. :)
Hahahahaha the riff/classical stuff part!
03:22 omg this song is amaizing!!

@ApocalypticaVideos or whomever!
How does a mere mortal like me go about getting one of those awesomeblack haired bows you use for the heavier style of playing?

Holy shit, I want to hang out and jam with these guys all day.
what is the title of the music played at 2:59? i know its part of a symphony
Pulang Bagani I'snt a symphony, is a cello concert, The Swan (The Carnival of the Animals, Saint Saes)
I think it's saint saen
Camille Saint-Saens. The entire work is "Carnival of the Animals". This movement is The Swan, featuring 2 pianos and a cello.
That was fun, and informative ^_^
Ha! I love these guys!!
Love this one!
Entertaining
How do you go that fast!? Saw these guys in Houston, back in May. Best show I've ever seen.
Hey me too!!! They were awesome.

I'm so jealous of the cat!! I wanna be that cat!!
played cello in middle and high school....never could maintain ongoing instruction and so I sucked and abandoned it 😞 they make me wish I could've stuck with it
PiercedPika it's never too late to pick it back up
PiercedPika I suppose I got lucky. Would’ve gone the same way as you did had I not been picked up by a professional cellist in a strings program at a high school I am going to now. I see a lot of cellists, guitarists and bassists from thrash, death, neoclassical, industrial, and even electronic genres as influences, because I want to take those 3 genres of extreme music, and combine them.
I love the fact that this is almost a joke lesson :P
nice makes me want to learn how to play cello even more now.
and where were they and what was up with Perttus leg?
German vibrato...? really we play different cool
