More Info:
This group of young cellists from Finland's Sibelius Academy have become notorious for their unique covers of Metallica songs. Their 1st amplified show for a rock audience in late '95 proved more than successful - not only did audiences go ballistic, but Mercury Finland signed them 1 week later. While the concept is indeed odd, the depth of these artists becomes quickly apparent. This intense, totally original album has been described by Billboard as "fierce" and "arrestingly heavy." Emphasis tracks are "Enter Sandman" and "The Unforgiven" (videos available).Reviews:
''Plays Metallica by Four Cellos'' is the debut album by Finnish rock group Apocalyptica, released in 1996. It features eight instrumental Metallica covers arranged and played on cellos. - Wikipedia
