I dunno why, but I think this sounds like something that would be in the Sherlock Holmes movies. :L (The ones with Robert Downey Jr.) This song sounds diabolical. Plus, it also sounds like it'd fit in well with the movie.
@XShadowxRavahX And some people tell my this is graveyard music and shit. But fuck them I want Fade to black on my wedding! if I'm gonna marry. Don't think so but who knows? Apocalyptica rocks the weddings and I will now that in the graveyard al the bones will be partying!!! So have a nice wedding!
@1494JRL1494 "Graveyard music?" ...That's the most stupiest thing I heard, are they..by a chance - listening to the modern shit on the radio these days? If so, they have no taste in music!
@XShadowxRavahX they listen to beethoven mozart and stuff like that and yeah also to the radio... But I listen to the Radio to but mine music taste is too big to handle for them I think....
THIS IS AMAZING. Two bands I love, Metallica and Apocalyptica. I shall have to call this Metallyptica. XD So freaking beast. This is one of my favorite songs by Metallica and I love how well Apocalyptica can perform it. A true masterpiece!
People have said that metal is unsophisticated, people who suck Beehtoven and Bach's dicks all the time, but if they would shut the fuck up and listen they would realize how similar metal is to classical music (structurally) and realize the unsophisticated garbage is the nickelbacks and lady gagas of the world who put no effort into making art... Bach would have listened to metallica over nickelback, i gurantee it.
@Nercrophage I only agree with half of this statement. You sarted off great, then brought yourself down to their level by bringing down other artists.
@jeanaro that's what a cover is, genius. Metallica's is far better than this version, in my opinion also; But this version isn't terrible, at least they play cello well and their having fun, making their own version instead of completely cookie cutting it with drums, guitars, and bass: like every other band,
@Rockluvr26 is it also safe to mention that this is slightly more kick ass than metallica? just because they make cellos sound so freaking amazing!!! :)
Apocolyptica is so fucking gay, they just made their name by playing all of metallicas songs on cello. they think they are the shit but really they are just shit, not the shit
@asadavidasa while i agree some parts are similar to the Halo theme, keep in mind that this song was released in 1998, Halo was released in 2001, 3 years after this song was released.
This song doesn't "sound like Halo", the Halo theme sound like For Whom The Bells Toll.
whenever i show someone this band they laugh because they play the cello, but this shit is even crazier than guitar.... now i wish i had learned the cello instead....
I orgasmed at 2:16 . This song has always been badass, and I'm not entirely sure if Apocalytica has amplified that, or fantastically met up to Metallica standards, but it's definitely either one.
Wow everything about this song is powerful and beautiful! I really love Apocalyptica and Metillica because of the power and passion put into these songs. ;) And I wanna thank these two amazing bands for making the world just a little bit better
When I heard about Apocalyptica doing a cover of this song, I was a little apprehensive, because it's a really good song by Metallica, but... wow. They blow me away. Just... wow.
@bloodraven626 sound not a thing like it. i gusse bcasue its a symphony it has the same kinda sound. but it sounds nothing like that song. that is a masterpeice this is becoming a masterpiece
