Good Points: A fantastic rendition of an all-time great heavy metal band played on very un-heavy metal instruments. Really opens up your mind to what can be achieved.

Bad Points: Given the difficulty of the task they took on, I really can't think of any bad points.

General comments: Apocalyptica, Plays Metallica By Four Cellos - I always like to hear one style of music transcribed on a completely different instrument, and this must surely be the ultimate.
Metallica - possibly one of the best heavy metal bands of all time, played by four cellists, and what a job they've done!
If you love the cello, or love Metallica, then give this a good long listen to. Only purists will disapprove, and that's their loss.

I thought Apocalyptica, Plays Metallica By Four Cellos was amazing. The cello is my favorite instrument. I also play the cello. A 4 cello duet like that is extremely difficult. They make it sound easy. Not to mention it's metalica! You gotta love 'em both.

Awesome interpretation of Metallica. Makes them sound good. Also for four cellos, EXTREMELY difficult, we are talking high treble clef on a bass clef instrument with wierd rythems and notes. Yet it could not have been done any better. The four cellos give it a hearty and satisfying sound. Though not very intense, definitely worth buying for easy listening.
