Rachel emailed last night, raving about an Apocalyptica song–one I hadn’t heard and loved, btw. But it made me pull out their self-titled CD that I have. Out of curiosity, I typed them into Last FM and another band came up that just blew me the HELL away!
If you like cello and rock, they are amazing. I immediately bought the CD off Itunes and let me just say, the words started flowing. I’m taking a quick break to share then going back. There are videos of them covering bands like System of a Down, Slayer even Apocalyptica.
But their original compositions are emotionally ripping and melodic. Big time.
The CD is The Sound Between. The band is Break of Reality.
Embedding is removed so I can’t put the video here, but go. Seriously. It starts out slow and moody– then blows your mind.
