I'm a bit of a metal head, but I am also a jazz/classical/contemporary trombone player, and Apocalyptica is the best of both worlds. The expressiveness and technique of classical cello, plus the awesomeness of modern metal.
The thing I love about Cello is that it sounds exactly the same live or in a recording studio, it doesn't need to be edited, because it already sounds amazing.
Dang...who would've thought people so rocker looking play the cello. I love this song with every last piece of my heart I got left. Apocalyptica 4 Eternity!
What I love about them is they get all the little nuances of Metallica into the songs...but they can lay down some serious emotion with their versions. Like someone mentioned b4,it would be incredible if both bands could play together. If they did already,I dont know about it.
Its not a competitor on Metallica, its a nice way of being diffrent and i love em for showing me M's songs can be played on otherwise marginal instruments. Very original and very cool!
really love to see preformers love the music they are playing!!!!!! Since I found this I promise I will never listen to another "Metallica" song unless Apocalyptica is playing it!!!!
I think what they did with the Covering metallica songs is wonderfull,, it's always nice to see other GOOD variations of very good songs, Like those of Metallica. very well preformed tbh. :)
Apocalyptica - plays Metallica by four Cellos, Inquisition Symphony and one or two more that I forgot their name.... But they are ROCK!!! both, Metallica and Apocalyptica \m/
Oh ok thx i didnt really know much about them, i was just checking some of their stuff out and saw most of it was metallica covers but thx for the info
these kick ass if haters think u can do any better then lets see it!! metallica loves this band and so do i not b/c of met either b/c they are talented kick ass and show with Metallilyptica would be great
these guys are you just have a open mind to listen to them. still great performace and you have to give them some credit for being able to take a good song and give it a good twist.
@Subliminallll perhaps but Apocalyptica isnt the whole orchestra experience but it woulda been cool to have them as a third part to help bring out the strings!
If practice makes perfect then why do people keep saying noboody is perfect? But still keep on practicing, if I can slaightly play this on my guitar you can sure as hell play it on the real deal.
i love how they are headbanging and playing cellos at the same time. it's amazing.

Apocalyptica never tel us down its really cool to hear souns like this! a mix between clasical music and metal! the best ever!
Dang...who would've thought people so rocker looking play the cello. I love this song with every last piece of my heart I got left. Apocalyptica 4 Eternity!
I saw them twice this year. Awesome. Unreal love.
God, they are just so hardcore! Being able to play expertly and headband at the same time! gosh i love this band to peices.
Absolutely amazing. Hardcore props to these guys not only for talent, but for innovation.
wow this was the best performed metallica song that they ever played...and it was life!!! awesome
i officially want them to cover EVERY MetallicA cd i would no doubt buy it in a heart beat!
...Wow. That intro was spot on, Cliff would have been proud.
Bravo! These guys will inspire future generations!

i never ever thought i would head bang to a cello
This song really suits the Cello, its so awesome
Im now learning the cello JUST to be able to play this
truly one of the best covers I have ever heard of anything. Keep rockin' out on those cellos!
this is definitely the best string quintet metallica cover band ever
really love to see preformers love the music they are playing!!!!!! Since I found this I promise I will never listen to another "Metallica" song unless Apocalyptica is playing it!!!!
A cover of my favorite song by my favorite band, done right.
im a huge metallica fan and by god i love this.
they definately do metallica proud.
unbelievably awesome... I swear to God I think I am in love..
Friggin cool and funny as hell you se em playing on cellos and their headbanging the whole time it's so crazy
I love the passion these guys have and the enthusiasm in their bodies. Although, Metallica kind of naturally incites headbanging.
their best Metallica cover yet!
0:35 synchronized headbanging!
awesome!
i just recently just found out about apocalyptica,lets just say metallica is now # 2 on my favs. : D
C´MON MAN, WHAT A SONG!!, INCREDIBLES
Cliff would be extremely proud to have heard this.
This is possibly one their best cover choices. It's a more melodic song than a lot of their other Metallica covers... I think it works very well.
These guys are awesome, they also do some classical stuff and their own music.
who knew a metallica song could be as epic as this! fucken awsome
These guys rock on chellos, incredible, it sounds so good!
this kicks ass on a whole new level
i just got chills down my spine!!! omg this is f'n awesome

Insane.
Really out of this world.
Great.
i love the original version, but this sounds friggin amazing w/ the cellos. :)
awesome song. amazing cover. may Cliff R.I.P.

Hell yes! Iron Man on cello would be badass!
this is beautiful... *tear*

love this song OH MY GOD!! Love it!!!!
I remember these guys in Bogota, there were amazing... what a fucking great performance...
i really love them..they are coming to montreal may 1st ...can't wait!
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE this...Woooooooooooooo!
OMG im amazed!! They r GREAT!
music is the portal to the third eye.
apocalyptica has warmed up for metallica!
O my gosh this is sounds so good even without vocals
that is true..if it werent for classical music alot of bands wouldnt exist
this is amazing!!! i wish i could play this but i can still play awesomely!!!!!!!!
I have been in love with these guys for 4 years now. Anyone know when they'll be coming to Miami??
Headbanging a full!!!! esta espectacular..
They and metallica should play this song together. Let apocalyptica do the into and end and let metallica do the middle. It would really rock......
They fucking kick ass and you can't deny it!!
They're awesome...can't wait to see them in NY...they're going to rock the shit out of me!!!
:D
Oh ok thx i didnt really know much about them, i was just checking some of their stuff out and saw most of it was metallica covers but thx for the info
So gotta see this live!!!
yeah, at least the vocal line is part of the sound to, so it's pretty cool they do it
THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!
omg april 29th their coming to Detroit!!i can't wait!! omg yeeessss!!!
They have done lot more than metallica covers. They just started as student party band playing metallica. Check they newest album
i'd love to see them do it with the bass solo at the start by cliff burton from 1985 that would be sick
the intro is soooo good ;D
omg.... i love this song
Love it so much.
I think Paavo is best out of Apocalyptica,and the cutest!! :D
This is amazing. Its so perfect.
(Perttu looks like a baby! XD)
