Thumbs up Metalhead Cellists?!?!?

Those crazies in Iceland have a cello quartet called Apocalyptica - they cover mostly Mettalica - are really quite good...

you're right, they are Pretty good. I listen to the vitamin string quartet tribute to Atreyu and Breaking Benjamin quite a bit, helps put me to sleep.

I wanna say the TT kid told me about them the other day in the Q&A thread, I listened to enter Sandman and decided that these guys are pretty legit.

Yeah these guys are pretty solid. This reminds me a lot of Metallica's S & M album where they were backed by a full orchestra. Some of that album was amazing, some of it was worthless. These guys know what they're doing though.

they play Apocalyptica all the time on the radio, but nothing like that.

new respect, I didn't really think they were anything great before.
