I just want to come here and pay my respects to this band. I went to the concert only having "Reflections" and the first cover record. They won me over and now I want to hear everything they released.

They are stormy live.

Not my favorite, but I still love them. They play some great tunes, I lost count of how many times I've listened to their music

have u seen them?

@BloodTears: Yes, I have.I've been on their gig in Sofia in 2006. They totally rocked!

I like this band's original concept very much. I most particularly enjoy their original instrumantal works, after they got the drummer, but before they brought in guest vocalists. But I've heard one of their newest songs with a guest vocalist, and in my opinion, it sounds kind of bad, like mainstream bad... I plan to soon buy a Cello of my own, and bringing it into use in my Melodic Death Metal band.

Good luck. It is not an easy instrument to play. If done right though it will sound fantastic.

i'd like to hear them play Yngwie Malmsteen's stuff! that would be INSANE lol, with their headbanging and never looking at the cello.

the drummer they had last year/2 years ago on the tour kicked ass too!

@Valentin B: He's a current member of the band.

Yea, they realy kick ass live. I was quite positively suprised after seeing their concert at MC 08

They were awesome in their show in Madrid, last 14th October ^^

Who has seen the amazing and marvellous video of Sacra? It is a genuine masterpiece. Among the best metal videos ever made. Using all those images of lakes, sunsents and when the song breaks the images of an electrical storm... just plain beautiful.

And doing crazy stuff:

You seriously quoted me from 2008? Eheh how adorable. I saw them in 2008 at Rock In Rio. And yes, they are doing crazy stuff. Pretty epic.

Finnish cello rockers APOCALYPTICA have released their collaboration with Ismo Alanko on a reworked version of the song "Peltirumpu", a track originally written and recorded by Alanko's former band SIELUN VELJET.
