This was sick!! If I could, this would be my intro theme as I entered the race track with my car. I,ll just have to play it in my head though. I see havoc when I listen to this!!!
As cellogrego has said the effects is the Amp. Use a vacuum tube amp! The vacuum tube amps sound best both in overdrive for aggressive sounds and at lower drive for natural sound. Solid State Amps sound cold and dry.
I've been looking at cello's like that for a while now and keep putting of buying one, BUT after seeing this and knowing I will get a different sound rather than the bass (which if I'm honest, I thought they were just another type of upright bass guitar). 5 stars from me
I thought metal couldn`t evolve much more. Dude you have an original and intresting sound that needs to be heard. If you had a drummer working with you the sky`s the limit. Thanx for the view!
It's basically a Yamaha SVC50 silent cello, you can find one pretty easily in music stores or internet...And yes, only the amp makes the metal sound, there's no effects at all...
@simonigolombek a bit cheaper than electric cello is to simply buy a pickup and preamp for your cello, and you still retain the natural sound of the cello when playing (which actually adds to the effect, and sometimes if you're using drive/distortion you kinda get a two sound effect)
it isnt really modified. its an electric cello most likely hooked up with a distortion pedal into a nice amp. give me a few months and youll hear something like this from me exept different. mine wont have a distortion pedal. itll be something else. a few months to get the money to buy the cello not to learn ive been playing for 8 years!!
Metal is mainstream in Europe? :D Haha. Maybe in scandinavian countries (I heard metal is extramally popular there).
Apocalyptica is goin to be mainstream in bad meaning of this world. I was shocked when they used almoast emo-looking cover for their latest album. Songs weren't good too.
This is absurdly awesome sir.

If an electric cello is unplugged does it sound like the classical cello?
thatmetalfan666 11 months ago
@thatmetalfan666
This one doesn't , 'cause it has no corpus which amplifies the played notes. But a 'normal' cello on which are just added electronics,yes.

@thatmetalfan666 no, it barely makes any noise, i think.

Scandinavians make some GREAT metal in my opinion.
About the other comment, honestly, that expression is meant to refer to a music genre, not a look or "label" or anything like it seems to be now.
I don't care about covers, dark is good, but I guess I can agree that some of their songs are awesome to me and some not so much.
