Break of Reality - Heavy Cello Thunder

[lddevo88]

They're playing Damage Inc. by Metallica, I think...No, Its Creeping Death!

[SayItAintSO0]

too bad i heard about them after i chose to play violin lol--- good thing there's rock violin too :)

[MooseWoodson]

This looks like a college campus. Mind telling me which college?

[basvossen]

we'ld love to do something together, we play cello bluesrock, you play cello metal...

[dsm664]

Thank god there isn't a dubstep remix of this yet.

[dismotrov]

Change the drum for something heavier!



[loganjt1]

wut up with the dancing person at the end?

[TobyBrownsBand]

need chello's in our band come play with us

[ahmatehrasoo]

I'd say it's safe to assume the gentleman dancing at the end of the video is black.

[Preppym]

@ahmatehrasoo I'd say it's safe to assume that if you think that MATTERS, then you're a bigot!

[MrDakotahO]

Creeping Death all the way! Adding the drums in there totally makes it all!

[5monkeys]

covering apocalyptica covering metallica

[VicCampos22]

I love that song! The girl is really on fire she's my idol!!

[l0lercaust]

these all the same members? my RD was talking about this band and knowing them and the band looks completely different from another video

[Badlogic2]

I prefer the songs when the drummers got a full set.

[bestdamnusernameever]

this is freakin' badass. awesome music.

[jrockerdraughn]

@xluzbelangelx Ever heard of Steve Vai? No doubt you have. Yet you don't see us calling every instrumental guitarist from other countries copycats and posers. These guys love playing cello and decided to make money doing what they love. You're the poser. Stay in Europe, don't ever disgrace my country by coming here.

[pbyshelley]

from the way they play the main riff at 0:31, it's fairly obvious they haven't listened to metallica's original in quite a while... the emphasis is on the wrong part of the beat :(

[el1ex]

break of reality is as good as apocalyptica. is not a copy...so fuck off, and listen the music!

[AlwaysMissRuffles]

hey do the cello get out of tune afterwards? just wondering cuz i remember my music teacher yelling at me for practicing outside, saying that it would mess up the strings.

[cerabis13]

@xluzbelangelx stfu

[cerabis13]

@xluzbelangelx dude dont be a dick every1 is entitiled to there own opinion plus its like comparing mozart and beethoven, they have different styles but are bothing genuis and who cares if there not known u gotta start somewhere?

[cerabis13]

both*

[lobsterman94]

creeping death!!! woohooo!

[xXMercifulFallXx]

@xluzbelangelx haha. I do listen to Apocalyptica, because they're good, these guys are good too.

[xXMercifulFallXx]

@xluzbelangelx I don't listen to music for how big the band is, I listen to music if it's good.

[xXMercifulFallXx]

@xluzbelangelx who the hell cares if they aren't known?

[xXMercifulFallXx]

@xluzbelangelx And fuck you for thinking they're copying them, if they wanna play that, then let them play that!

[xXMercifulFallXx]

@xluzbelangelx yeah...keep thinking that.

[xXMercifulFallXx]

@xluzbelangelx

Stfu, apocalyptica would probably think this is awesome.

[xXMercifulFallXx]

Perfect sync.

[xXMercifulFallXx]

Awesome!

[fmantank]

amazing i play violin in a orchestra and i love the way they sound.

[Kida001]

The song is Creeping Death, Metallica.

[SuperHellohello1]

AWSOME!!!!!!

[urdumb7]

this is amazing. true talent!

[someguyonacouch]

im learning this

[JupiterAdept]

That was really tight.. Intonation is awesome too, you're great cellists!

[guitarpaol]

Metallica song ??

[urdumb7]

ya, creeping death

[ironman10878]

love it!

[rukiathesoulreaper]

chya a metallica song xDD

great but not as great as apocalyptica lmao

[thatkidvitya]

have they changed members ever?

[aug31st1987]

They just did.

[daughterofgod17]

świetne!

najważniejsze, że widać, jaką sprawia im to frajdę ;D

[dragonhunterhaas]

Nice I must say! Do you guys memerize sheet music do u just find it out and if u guys use sheet music ware on earth do u guys get it?

[riccokane]

i would love to play drums over this. awsome

[plaguemarine]

very nice

[Cateclysm]

damn these guys are badass bravo

[elloganster]

A CABRON QUE CHINGON

[takarayumi]

I love the sounds that they can get to come out of their instruments, especially since they're acoustic. It's amazing and is so awesome, seriously! Keep it up and hope everything works out for the best!

[VicHerbert]

right on guys, keep it up!!

[boromirbountyhunter]

Is this one of their original compositions or is this a cover of somebody?

[boromirbountyhunter]

Its one of metalica's, right?

[GoatBlaat]

One of Metallica's, yes. Master of Puppets I think, Apocalyptica covered that song.

[C0urante]

The song is Creeping Death, originally by Metallica.

[GoatBlaat]

Oh. Well, it's from Metallica xD

[Raevynschylde]

I had to comment on this. Despite the feelings of some that they appear to be old news and uncool, I thoroughly enjoyed them. They have been touring high schools and performing to show kids that music is as awesome and wild ans they can make it. My mom is a teacher and saw them perform at her school and she loved it. She wanted to get their CD, and she's not the type to listen to this sort of stuff. DOn't bash it for being done.

[murder162]

its like soft metal but still heavy at the samw time

[SuperIdiuts]

Probably been said a lot, but Apocalyptica did this so long before these guys. I'm not detracting from the fact they are good, bu they are hardly groundbreaking...

[pokerface124]

they cover apacalyptica songs.

they didnt make it themselves lol

[exigentrevolution]

....neither did Apocalyptica...

[akazombie]

this is just for fun. Their original songs are groundbreaking. You should see them perform. Apocaliptica has nothing on them.

[exigentrevolution]

I hate it when people compare the two. Apocalyptica is great, but they have a totally different style than BoR. I get more lost in BoR's music.

[kcssnotbubble]

man you people are so awesome. i love the cello.

[dihlon9]

these people are really good, respect to them! it does sound like apocalyptica - the  creeping death. I only recently got into their music and I love it. :)

On a side note, does anyone know what city their playing from?

[perryeye]

wow they cool

I don't mind who's playing good music these guys rock

[gibura8]

sugoi!!!!!

[hazelhorsebreaker]

i absolutley love the range on a cello

i think its the most amazing instrument in the world its so beautiful and...idk its amazing

i love my cello!!

[RyoukaHatake]

Me too me too *_*

You can do maaany things with a cello :D

It's a multilateral instrument, I'm so glad I started to play the cello back then in school...instead of violin (ugh) or viola (ugh x_x)

Just imagine Apocalyptica with violins... that would be just sooo wrong xD'

[RayeGunn]

I dunno, you can make almost any instrument work. I love the sound of cellos, and it's true, it wouldn't be the Apocalyptica we all know and love, but... well, look at some of the folk metal bands out there.... Like Turisas! Accordion and violins totally rocking out (seriously, look at video mGs_kcnswW4 they also use tons of brass instruments and a double-bass). Eluveite even makes bagpipes and the hurdy-gurdy metal. or those 'nuthin but stringz' guys on America's Got Talent for more hip-hop...

[RyoukaHatake]

Hm OK you're right :)

I know some other folk metal bands too and they make awesome music, but it's just that a quartet of violins couldn't make the music sound hard or deep, the strings are just to high. A cello has a great range of tones, from bass to super high ones. So this is what I meant about 'Apocalyptica playing on violins wouldn't work' :D

[exigentrevolution]

Check out Iron Horse, they're incredible. Also, Harptallica is rather interesting.

[exigentrevolution]

I will never get sick of this. I wish I knew two more cellists so I could play this with them :(

[ApocalypticaChannel]

I love BoR, I love Rasputina, I love Judgement Day.. I love APOCALYPTICA!!!

CELLO ROCK FTW!!!!!

[spyrdian]

also, everyone saying this is "completely unique", and a "re-invention" of metal REALLY needs to check out apocalyptica....they've been around WAY longer than these guys. I'm not insulting BoR, but apocalyptica gave them their idea...

and this is a cover of metallica's "creeping death"

[RayeGunn]

No kidding. Apocalyptica recorded this very song back in 1996. These guys are like 10 years too late for it to be ground breaking. I mean, they play well, it sounds almost like Apocalyptica, but all the talk about them being so unique and all... well, it's not, at least not any more. To the people who voted down spyrdian's comment, maybe you should actually pay attention to what he's saying, and check Apocalyptica out. It was an informative comment, and the truth, not insulting.

[spyrdian]

thanks

[exigentrevolution]

Actually this group is very different from Apocalyptica, if you look past this song. They're much more melodic, and they have a much more different sound. I could tell them apart pretty quickly from just audio. And..Apocalyptica never did this song acoustic...

[opengraphics]

I'm actually fairly certain that Apocalyptica's album version of this song is actually accoustic. They use distortion live, but Apocalyptica's entire Metallica cover album seems to be acoustic. They're newer work uses a lot more distortion, and they're song writing style is noticeably different from BOR. With both bands, I'd say they're original songs are much better.

[exigentrevolution]

It is distorted. Not as heavily as their later albums, but Paavo's bass lines are definitely distorted. I didn't notice until I started to play the cello and noticed it wasn't the same sound at all.

[spyrdian]

lol....these guys totally got their idea from apocalyptica

[LadyNASCARFan]

yeah, and???

[jimmini79]

So Metal is definitely not meant for cellos. But you guys are good. Do master of puppets. Yay. not metally though.

high five.

[exigentrevolution]

it's only not "metally" because its acoustic. hook a cello up to a distortion pedal and it's metal as hell.

[PalpoPalpatine]

METAL REINVENTED!!!!

[kenna516]

you guys, i love it! if you have that music on a sheet, i want it!!!!!!!! great job!

[Xenobli]

This is exactly the type of stuff I've been looking for for AGES. Good show.

[CyberEu]

Very good !

Now i wanna listen some more violocenlos.

[BloodySuki]

Oh BADASS!!!! I love this!!

[CandyPerson77]

oh ooops i meant to reply to this guy who spelled cello wrong ^^

[CandyPerson77]

i swear this video used to have much better quality when i watched in the summer. Hm...... still awesome! ^^

[exigentrevolution]

I love the end of this song.

[n0rton]

nice metallica cover

[badvibes]

so fucking awesome.

[turtlemuck]

ahh i love them and this performance!!

[aug31st1987]

They are playing at my school on wednesday!

[lokinkid]

Do you go to space center?

[HeadbangingButzemann]

A very good performance, especially if you think of the situation. It is not so easy to concentrate "open-air" like that, but you give your best and - thats most important - have fun together and that is even to feel in front of the PC-Monitor-Screen and makes this video one of my favorites.

[ooxena]

They're ten thousand times better live. :)

[Jericam45]

I love how the guys do things like stand and stuff...like an attempt to get the guitar culture to appreciate a real instrument

[CoasterFreak418]

Apocalypta sucks compared to them. I've seen them break of reality live at least a dozen times, and they are so much more awesome.

[NexPictures]

First of all I'd like to apologyze for my quite bad english. They are great cello players but this version of Creeping Death (that's from Metallica. Apocalyptica only did a cover of it) is plenty of phantom and lost notes, and a lot (and a lot, and a lot) of mistakes. Plus the Djembé is absolutely out of place in this song... That's my opinion as musician

[exigentrevolution]

quite bad english?? I would've guessed english was your first language just by reading this.

[omgdemiface]

i love break of reality! they are amazing!!! i play cello myself (so far 8 years) and i love it... it's such a beautiful instrument. hearing people like B.O.R. and apocalyptica inspire me even more! i hope they become real famous like apocalyptica.. =]

[depeupleurs]

This song is Ride The Lightning

[exigentrevolution]

WRONG. This is Creeping Death.

[gvermonter]

damn this shit made me shiver

[Roscoe332]

these guys inspire me. i wanna learn to play cello

[mokosalado321]

watch apocalyptica dude specially quutamo and hope AND THEN TELL ME ABOUT INSPIRATION

[Roscoe332]

[aug31st1987]

It isn't on iTunes.

[Roscoe332]

whats it called tho, maybe i can get it off their website

[mokosalado321]

its apocalyptica

[mokosalado321]

ITS CREEPING DEATH BY APOCALYPTICA

[1100elevenhundred]

The original version is by Metallica.

[mokosalado321]

u think i dont know that of course i know that!!!!i am just saying apocalyptica is a much bigger inspiration for playing chelo or whataver the reason u think i dont know that apocalyptica just made their songs with metalica,sepultura and others they are playing a chelo so i said this creeping death BY apocalyptica well whataver...APOCALYPTICA RULES

[CandyPerson77]

Cello*

[mokosalado321]

[Dieachtensteel]

Very well done.

Awesome.

[raphacello]

thats great!!!! you rule to make it outeside! Great!!!

[xXLeafXNinjaXx]

why is there a random guy dancin in the begining?!?

[skok65]

That sounds great! I came across this while looking for a band called Deadweight; they are a 3 piece, violin, cello and drums rock band. Fairly dead-on rendition, as well. I will tune in again. . .

[shakela1200]

DIE DIE DIE DIE!!!

[cellochik19]

wow i'm from new york where u guys play i think and this is exactly what i'm trying to get started with my friends...comment on my youtube if you want another cellist!!!

[pbaron23]

NOT BAD!!!!!!!!!!

[avidcellist]

[LadyNASCARFan]

These guys are awesome! Check them out, they even have a CD and are doing a tour! When I grow up...lol, I'm 35 now...I wanna play just like them! :o)~

[YouveStolenMyEyes]

i'm impressed, apocalyptica can get impossibly hard. they did it such justice.

[yogurtdefresa]

very very good i am spanish and i like yours music

[Yeons]

Very good, pure talent! But the Apocalyptica verison does sound fuller.

[Yeons]

I mean when Apocalyptica play it, they did the arrangment of this I'm pretty sure.

[ClaudioMV]

The song is Creeping Death by Metallica, but the cello version is from Apocalyptica.

Very good!

[AleXIXandra]

It really rocks, you have a great punch and talent, amazing cellists ! Apocalyptica sucks compared to you ;)

Well, hope to have a cd of your own compositions (because they're good too, very fresh and inventive !!) !!)or a myspace page coz you rock guys !!!

[ChancellorJewitt]

I have heard something like this before, maybe Metallica, or more than likely, Apocolyptica...somone mind telling me if I am mistaken or not? The intro really reminds of something, and rest does as well.

[DrakoDragonis]

Your not mistaken, It's a Metallica tune..the name of I can't quite remember right now >.=.< . If I remember I'll update :P

[ChancellorJewitt]

I was re-listening to it and it hit me, "Creeping Death."

[Kodukadvakch]

Incredible! How high was that girl going on her cello?! That's amazing! Just goes to show: Cellists aren't all classical, uptight musicians.

[metalapocalypsis]

YEEEAAAH!!

[me77777771333]
