I love Apocalyptica! They should have stayed doing instrumentals I think, but they have worked with favourite artists I like too. I should be going to see 'em live though.

I got the 7th Symphony alb*m in special edition, and I prefer their instrumental work on the album. Some songs have quite a dark vibe to them, but I don't think it's as good as their old stuff. *
