Since they formed in 1993, Finnish orchestral rock band Apocalyptica has released six studio albums featuring numerous cello-based instrumentals along with some vocal-based songs. Whatever styles they've explored - from atmospheric interludes to fast, battering rhythms -- their music has been gripping, dynamic and full of melody. But with their seventh album, 7th Symphony, the band has composed an album that's not just symphonic, it's practically a symphony. 7th Symphony is the musical culmination of 17 years of hard work. Apocalyptica started in 1993 as an outlet for Toppinen and three of his classically trained classmates at the prestigious Sibelius Academy. Three years later, they released their debut, Apocalyptica Plays Metallica by Four Cellos. 7th Symphony was produced by Joe Barresi (Tool, Queens of the Stone Age) and Howard Benson (Three Days Grace, Papa Roach). Special guests include Gavin Rossdale, Brent Smith from Shinedown, Lacey from Flyleaf, Joseph Duplantier from Gojira, and Dave Lombardo from Slayer.
