'''Apocalyptica''' is a [[cello]] [[metal]] band from [[Finland]]. They formed in 1993 when four classically trained cellists attending the Sibelius Academy of Music decided to form an ensemble dedicated to covering [[Metallica]] songs. After getting signed to Zen Garden Records after a performance, Apocalyptica began to write original music of their own on top of their covers of classic [[rock]] music. Their discography maps a gradual shift from acoustic cello cover music to more fully formed metal songs featuring cellos. As of 2005, they have a full-time drummer as the three remaining cellists from the original quartet. Since they have no vocalist, Apocalyptica often invites vocalists from other popular bands to sing on their more radio-friendly tunes. [http://www.wopvideos.com/Apocalyptica/bio/]
