On May 10, 1996, Finnish rockers Apocalyptica released their unique debut, “Plays Metallica by Four Cellos.” This instrumental cello rock opus changed the future of hard music. The album presented a completely new, fresh approach to the hits of the world’s most famous metal band. What’s more? With this creation, Apocalyptica introduced a completely new, unique rock-metal genre to the world. Since then, Apocalyptica has sold millions of records and regularly sells out arenas worldwide!

Apocalyptica is returning to its famous roots with a new album, “Plays Metallica vol. 2,” aiming to conquer the world once again! This fall, this phenomenal group of talented cellists will travel across Europe with their new album, including a stop in the Czech Republic! On October 11, 2024, at the O₂ universum Prague, they will present their beautiful instruments, brand-new music, and a perfectly energetic, captivating symphonic-metal show.

With these instrumental masters of their craft, you can expect an unforgettable, fantastic evening filled not only with famous hits but also played in their unique, perfect way, with original arrangements of legendary Metallica songs in an electrifying performance on 4 x 4 strings!

Founding band-leader Eicca Toppinen comments: “It’s incredible to think that after all these years our tribute to Metallica still speaks so powerfully to people. To be able to share our love for Metallica’s music with the live audience is an absolutely magical experience. This time the show is going to be next level, and we can’t wait to get back out there and share the fun with our fans!”
