Apocalyptica - One (Plays Metallica By Four Cellos - A Live Performance)

[@xendava8495]

When I saw this band. I had no idea who they were or what they were. By the time the show ended. I was so overwhelmed by what I had just seen I became somewhat abscessed with them. While beautiful and orchestral, they were so fuckin heavy I was blown away. If you have never seen them. I think you should. They will change the way you look at metal. No matter how into it you are.

[@mikeberry2649]

Where did you have the abscess?

[@CelestialChorus9827]

Lol, "abscessed" with them. So you were infected by them...that's actually a neat way to look at admiration, or obsession.

[@PurchasingPureGold]

where were you able to see them?

[@matt78408]

Couldn’t agree more...saw them a couple days ago and could not BELIEVE how fast and heavy they were. What a great show!

[@smilingmoon4626]

Yeah. ...it blows me away too.....F. ... awesome. ....goosebumps Greetings from Germany. .....\m/

[@PantsuMann]

Ever since I graduated school over 11 years ago I have always wondered how these guys met. Like, how on earth do you find 5 people with the same interest in metal, 4 amazing cello players and a drummer, with the same ambition? Not just that but the persona each of them have, looking like 3 members from Children of Bodom and a blind guy in a suit(Antero you fucking rock)? You guys are amazing. Your covers are so damned nostalgic to my school years. EDIT: Jesus christ that solo. I think I burst a nut

[@gaminos]

Actually he's not blind lol Many people think he's blind and silent or deaf because it's not easy to find a video where he talk lol

They met at the musical academy of Finland where they all studied

[@kevinsongxin2551]

Metal was in fact, very popular and nerdy at one point. That some cello players shared a passion for Metallica isnt very unlikely

I mean, one of my bandmates was talking about a REALLY classical musician (I think it was Bach, correct me if I’m wrong) that played in drop D, so I guess he was the first of the metalheads

[@VintageFiendClub]

This is insane. The amount of talent and time that was put into this performance..

Did this guy just do One's guitar solo with a cello

[@philheanly5303]

Alberto Bueno yes, yes he did

[@matthewfranson6523]

He most certainly did!! \m/\m/

[@davormackovic2984]

To be more impressed is watching their original version with no drums or nothing. Mind blown.

They've been doing it for 15+ years, dude...

[@kyledean4512]

I swear that was a guitar disguised as a cello

[@joneksi77]

Seeing Apocalyptica headline a metal festival was a huge experience in 2018. Thousands of people standing there in absolute silence appreciating their music. You could have heard a pin drop. On a Saturday night. At a heavy metal festival.

[@WPGKLR]

I would have legitimately loved to have been there for that.

[@wonkothesane8691]

It's official! Asses were kicked and names were taken! Would love to see Metallica's reaction to this; make it happen people!

[@kcyob]

Charles Johnson Metallica has known Apocalyptica since forever. If I remember correctly, Apocalyptica opened for Metallica on a few shows at Helsinki back in 1995-96. And Metallica invited them to their 30 year aniversary concert, they played One together and James said it sounded beautiful and they should tour together.

[@wonkothesane8691]

@@kcyob: Thanks for the info; I agree with your tour idea, especially if Metallica can put a metal edge to a couple of classical pieces. I believe the fellas in Metallica have more than the necessary skills to do so. It would be risky, creating such a fusion, even more so to market it; but one can't produce true innovation and beauty with taking some risk. And some things in life should be done merely for the joy of doing them, regardless of profit or loss.

[@PurchasingPureGold]

​ Charles Johnson talking about marketing they could help bring the mainstream into BLOCKCHAIN Tech a Digital Ledger, as well as digital contracts and more... etc. While spreading the word and sell their music with cryptocurrency and stand for the independence of living creating business and prosperity to the music lovers alike!

[@JohnFoley-cm8lm]

Holy! First I head of this band was in a reference on the comment boards in NY Times article on Metallica's new album. I've only really liked Metallica for their live performance with San Francisco Symphony so, for me, they've been mostly in my rearview mirror , "on a freight train running toward a light at the end of a tunnel." But Apocalyptica has, for me, made something old new again. I'm truly surprised that, as an old man, I'm capable of being surprised. Astounding, Truly astonishing. Well done.
