i heard of it for the first time like two weeks ago...
some dude had a album of Apocalyptica "Best of Apocalyptica",
he said,
here... listen to it, u will like it,
i listened to it, and i was like : "woooow... amazing... "classical" instruments in such a flow..."

and im goddamn addicted to it!!!
day and night, whatever i do, the album is on...
i searched for their sites and stuff,
they already made music like 10 years ago...
and i hear from it for the first time,
what a shame

now, i dunno if they are WORLD famous,
but i think it must be.

anyone like Apocalyptica to?
or is a big fan?
any recommendations of tracks or albums or somethin?
cause goddamn i like them...

i've never heard of it in my life but i will definately find somethings to listen to if its done by classical instruments as you say.

lol didnt take long to find.
its metal but now i know what you mean by classical.
its a fine mix of the two, kinda amazes me

some contrabas', some violins, some electric guitar, some drums...
in short, classical music with gothic influence, some anime influence,
nice flow, rock with classical instruments...
hard todescribe,
but goddamn they are great....

Ive heard some of them when my friend showed me it at his house.. didnt like it much I am sorry to say =\

i dont "like" some of of the tracks to,
to heavy metalish for me.
but some of them are just niiiiiiiiiiceee...

just listen to "hope vol 2" and "angel of death"
hope vol 2 is probably the "niiiiiiiiiiiceee" and angel of death should be the "too metalish" one
you will see the difference too guys
i mean hear the difference

Its probably because I hate most/all metal music, dislike rock music but dont completely hate it, and hate music that the singers start screaming in the middle of the songs because they have nothing else to say.

i know what you mean. but this band is different from those whom you speak of.
well, i cant really say that because ive only heard 3 songs from them.
so far two out of those three were pretty good.

try listening to :
Bittersweet (ft. Rasmus)
Unforgiven (no singing or screaming, just a flow with instruments only...)
My friend of Misery (just instruments...)
One (again niiice without singing/screamin)

Will do, thx.
