...is awesome. They started off just doing Metallica covers, but now they are breaking away from that and makeing there own music. What it basically is, is them playing Metallica on four cellos. Below are links to there stuff. Listen to the samples on amazon. There stuff is just amazing. Best.Music.Ever.

They started off as students in the prestigious Sibelius Academy. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif] They're supposedly really popular in Germany (!) where they've even recorded a different version of some of the albums where there is a female soloist who sings in german. Heh.

I've got their "Cult" album, which is quite alright, and one of my friends has several of their other albums. I prefer their original stuff compared to their Metallica covers. Still, quite a unique sound, eventhough it is a bit limited in the end.
If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.

OMG i know!
A friend online introduced me to it 2 weeks ago, and I immediately loved it.

Their best ones must be Somewhere Around Nothing, Path I and Path II and Hope.

Simply outstanding.

Hope is definitely their best. The problem is that most of their songs have no vocals, leading me to become bored. It's OK when I'm sitting at my computer, but when I'm driving I need something to sing along to :P
