Description

Firstly I'd like to say, having seen some of the reviews for Apocalyptica's first album, I was appalled. Hearing the unbelievable wealth of sound that these guys get out of their cellos, how could anyone say these sibelius academy graduates are anything but brilliant?For me, they are best when doing slow and mellow songs, on this album notably 'Nothing Else Matters', 'Fade to Black' and 'One'. Breathtaking.Of the more traditional thrash covers, 'Domination' deserves a mention, not least because they actually play the solo!!'From Out of Nowhere' comes across as being a surprisingly deep and wonderfulmore… piece of music - a very pleasant surprise.Of the pieces they have written 'Harmageddon' is my favourite, with some fantastic sounds (using harmonics) in the introduction, then breaks into something powerful (yet at times almost melancholy) that takes full use of the beatifully layered harmonies they can create.Overall, there is some great music on this album. It is played by four brilliant cellists who can milk the pieces for all they're worth! I'd say a must-have for any thrash or classic metal fan, and a worthwhile purchase for anyone who is intrigued by the prospect of cellists playing heavy metal music.
