Apocolyptica

Anyone else ever heard the music. Bunch of guys from Finland that use cellos as rock music. They do a lot of cover songs on the cello by Metallica. There new song "I Don't Care" is pretty good. Has the guy from Three Days Grace featuring lead vocals.

They're really good--I own the latest album and that song you're referring to isn't even the best song on the latest album. Their first album was all instrumental Metallica covers...great stuff.

On this album, they did a version of "Helden" (otherwise known to us non-German speaking people as "Heroes"--David Bowie's hit) with Till Lindemann, lead singer of Rammstein...and it's very, very good--very inspired/haunting lean to it. The song "I'm Not Jesus" with Corey Taylor (Slipknot/Stone Sour lead man) got them a lot of noteriety this past Spring/Summer, got them more rock-cred. Another great singer they did a really great song with is Christina Scabbia, lead singer of Lacuna Coil--a track called "SOS (Anything But Love)".

To each their own, but all 3 of those songs are better than that Adam Gontier track. 3DG is one of the hotter bands in mainstream rock right now though, so they're gonna get more radio airplay. Take my word on it--check out the whole album...there are better songs, and the sounds they create with the 3 cellos and a drum set are flat out amazing on the instrumental tracks.

Great stuff. Look into them much further for sure--I think you'll like what you hear.

Man.. do you notice anything wrong with your post? you mispelled a lead lady of rocks name.. thinking that you are a man of rock, and you spell her name wrong.. haha.. as much as she says it over and over, you'd think you would spell it right!?!? what's wrong with you Cane??? it's Cristina (no damn H in it) as she says haha...
I'm just busting ya chops man.. but seriously, no H in her name

[CoeburnCane]

I know--I fugged up that one. It is Cristina...I posted that in a massive hurry, trying to think more about the album than spellings...though I did go and look up Till Lindemann's name to be sure of it...

It's all good though.
