No filler here. Excellent disc. Apocalyptica take a symphonic approach rock/metal music with Worlds Collide. You are treated to some easily Metallica inspired, well composed classical and metal fused songs. Guest vocalist include Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil, Corey Taylor of Slipknot, Till Lindemann singing "Helden" in German, Adam Gontier of Three Days Grace, and Dave Lombardo. "I'm not Jesus", "Worlds Collide", "Burn", "S.O.S. (Anything but Love)" and "Helden" stand out. To end the disc you're treated to a composition of Metallica's "Unforgiven II" and it is a surprising treat. I'm enjoying this disc immensely and look foreward to hearing more from them.

I HAVE BEEN A FAN OF APOCALYPTICA FOR YEARS, I AM ALSO A FAN OF SLIPKNOT, WHEN COREY TAYLOR COLLABORATED WITH APOCALYPTICA, I HAD TO HAVE THE CD! I PLAYED IT FOR A FEW HOURS OVER AND OVER YESTERDAY, AND I STILL LOVE IT! I LOVE THAT APOCALYPTICA STILL HAD SOME JUST CELLO MUSIC, AND I ENJOYED THE GUEST ARTISTS. EXCELLENT CD!
TOTALLY MIND BLOWING! While not a "Heavy Metal" fan these classically trained cellists ( YES, CELLOS) will forever change your mind as to the musical merits of that genre! PLUS, they have a drummer who must be the illegitmate son of Keith Moon and John Bonham (Please don't ask me how!). All I do know is that this band opens new doors, as the Beatles and Bob Dylan did. DO NOT miss this!
This Band is amazing..They made me like Metallica..which is sad that I did not appreciate them before...But anyone who has never heard these guys should go on YouTube and check them out...and then you will want this CD..or any of their others..Plus all the members are HOT! You will get chills from the haunting sounds of the cello..just simply Amazing!!
