SOUNDCHECK

HOUSE OF BLUES, CHICAGO Apocalyptica

Sunday, April 27, 2008

Touring behind their latest album, Worlds Collide, these
Finnish cello shredders have greater concerns than executing
the knuckle-busting riffs of their knotty originals or frequent
Metallica covers. “It only takes a few hours to learn each
song,” says Perttu Kivilaakso. “But there is no single
minute in the show when the hair is not disturbing us.
We have had to learn how to headbang properly.”
