Keeping with the cello theme this week…
Zoe Keating – Time is Running Out | Original
I’m not a fan of Muse, but I think that Zoë Keating’s cover of ‘Time Is Running Out’ is awesome! I really do love how she uses the electronic sampling while playing live, it’s very cool.
Break of Reality – B.Y.O.B | Original
Another great cello-rock band, Break of Reality, do an absolutely awesome job of covering System of a Down’s ‘BYOB’ – it’s really impressive!
Apocalyptica – Until it Sleeps | Original
Finally, this one was completely predictable… it is, of course, Apocalyptica. I wanted to put up their cover of Faith No More’s ‘From Out Of Nowhere’, but YouTube doesn’t seem to have it :( so I guess you’ll have to make do with one of many Metallica covers! I think this cover of ‘Until It Sleeps’ is my favourite they’ve done, it’s very beautiful.
