Apocalyptica'基督启示录'是一支古典金属乐队,1993年组建于芬兰的赫尔辛基,成员为四个受过古典音乐训练的大提琴手,他们让重金属完全换了模样。Apocalyptica乐队所有的乐器就是四把大提琴,虽然是用大提琴,但他们却是不折不扣的金属党。谁说只有吉它和鼓才能做出摇滚乐来,而这4把大提琴同样可以做出震撼人心的效果来,他们的演奏技巧毫不逊色,并且在一些细节的处理上更为细腻和感性。乐队成员是4位毕业于芬兰西贝柳斯音乐学院(Sibelius Academy)的四位大提琴手。 他们说"所谓创造力对我们而言过去意味着用我们的乐器模仿典型的金属乐,如今它意味着我们自己的艺术探索。我们不过是想扩展乐器的使用领域,发展新的大提琴演奏技巧。" Apocalyptica的音乐受到从俄罗斯作曲家萧斯塔科维奇到重金属以及歌剧等音乐形式的影响,他们并不是简单地将它们混合在一起,制作如此不朽的声音需要超常的能力和灵活性。 The Helsinki, Finland, quartet Apocalyptica comprised classically trained cellists Eicca Toppinen, Max Lilja, Antero Manninen, and Paavo Lotjonen; formed in 1993, the group made waves internationally in 1996 with Plays Metallica by Four Cellos, which combined their formal background with their love of heavy metal. The album found favor with both classical buffs and metal heads alike, and two years later Apocalyptica resurfaced with Inquisition Symphony, which featured covers of material by Faith No More and Pantera. Manninen soon left the band and was replaced by Perttu Kivilaanso. They added double bass and percussion to the mix for 2001's Cult, a collection of all-original material, and again on 2003's Reflections which featured guest drummer Dave Lombardo from Slayer. Max Lilja had left the band and Mikko Sir n joined as the band's permanent drummer. After Reflections was reissued as Reflections Revised, featuring a bonus track with new wave diva Nina Hagen, 2005 saw the release of the eponymous Apocalyptica, followed in 2006 by the collection Amplified: A Decade of Reinventing the Cello. The band returned to the studio the following year for Worlds Collide. Rammstein vocalist Till Lindemann appeared on the album performing the German-language version of David Bowie's "Helden." (更多)
