Apocalyptica – Plays Metallica, Vol.2 CD

Apocalyptica – Plays Metallica, Vol. 2

Apocalyptica release a stunning follow-up to their legendary debut record. Apocalyptica Plays Metallica Vol. 2 continues the journey that began in 1996 when cellists from Helsinki’s world-renowned Sibelius Academy played symphonic tribute to the biggest of the big four – heavy metal titans Metallica. For their ninth record the classically-minded dynamos are returning to their roots to bring a legendary story full circle. It also features a host of surprises beginning with a unique collaboration. 

Lead single The Four Horsemen, taken from Metallica’s 1983 debut Kill ‘Em All features Metallica bassist Rob Trujillo, setting the scene for a compendium of deep cuts and brilliant highlights spanning Metallica’s staggering 40 year career, and there are more surprises to come.
