Apocalyptica — the Finnish group, executing threw on violoncellos. The group structure represents four violoncellists and the drummer, without the constant vocalist. Originally having become famous for tool covers-versions of known trashes-metal bands, further Apocalyptica let out mainly a material of own composition.

In the name of group musicians have combined a word "Apocalypse" and the love to Metallica. So there was name Apocalyptica.

The group genre doesn't give in to unequivocal definition, it often characterize as symphonic threw, neoclassical threw, a trash-threw or chello-fate. The majority of compositions — tool, however Apocalyptica repeatedly involved for joint records of vocalists from Slipknot, The Rasmus, HIM, Sepultura, Guano Apes, Rammstein, Soulfly, Bullet for My Valentine, Lacuna Coil, Three Days Grace.
