Album Notes & Community Reviews

Expanding beyond the Metallica interpretations of their debut, the Finnish cello-metal pioneers widened their repertoire on their sophomore outing. Alongside aggressive classical covers of Sepultura and Pantera, the quartet introduced original compositions, utilizing distortion and rapid-bowing techniques to emulate the intensity of heavy metal entirely on string instruments.
