Hey everyone!
I really want to listen to interesting cello music, but i know only about Apocalyptica. can you advice me something especially something lyric?

Hi Yanina...

It's interesting how it's relatively easy to find metal/goth-type bands using cello... I'm not a big fan of Apocalyptica and the like - not really into metal, much.

It sounds as though you might actually enjoy the music of my band, Cogwheel Dogs (http://www.cogwheeldogs.com). We've got a couple of free mp3s up on last.fm (http://www.last.fm/music/Cogwheel+Dogs). You might like 'Breathe', which is quite lyrical.

Other artists like Nina Nastasia (http://www.myspace.com/ninanastasia) use cello in an interesting and pleasant way, sometimes. Might be worth a look...

I'd be interested to hear anyone else's recommendations - good thread...

Tom

Hey Tom!
the music you play is really awsome
I found what i was looking for the music i do is very much alike.
and Regina Spector in your list...... I do like her.
thanks for good music.
By the way have you heard the new one album of Norah Jones? thee are some songs with cello which are super!

Hey you should try cello fourte...they are really good

thanks.
by the way maybe you know where can i get their mp3 for free?

Thanks, Yanina. Regina Spektor is great, yes... And a fantastic live performer.

I don't have any Norah Jones albums, although I'm familiar with her. I'll do some searches for her songs featuring cello. Do you recommend any songs/albums in particular?

www.Breakofreality.com check these guys out you will love them! Very nice people to know as well.

CELLOFOURTE!!!!!!!

they are amazing, and incredibly nice people

Vampire Weekend are the best. They have been described as using a combo of african instruments and western classical instruments in an alternative 'rock' setting. For the cello, the best is "M79" - really good strings in there!! xx
