First things first: this album is rock-oriented instrumental  music, but the cellos are the outstanding element, which, of course,  surprises people who hear this for the first time. This time there are drums  for a large portion of the album. Dave Lombardo plays drums on most of those  songs. There is a little bit of vocals, too. Also, a few songs are just  cellos without drums. Obviously, this band is for the open-minded public  because the lack of vocals goes against all the accepted rules. This is  classical music played with a rock &#8216;n roll spirit.  The band&#8217;s musical idea  is interesting in itself. Furthermore, they execute it well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Things are changing a little, adding a few new things to this cello rock\/metal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-159","reviews","type-reviews","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Apocalyptica - &quot;Reflections&quot;
