Apocalyptica

 é uma banda finlandesa formada por três violoncelistas e, desde 2005, um baterista. Tem como especialidade o "symphonic metal" (heavy metal com aspectos de sinfonia), tocando também música clássica. Todos os formadores frequentaram a Academia Sibelius, em Helsinque, onde se conheceram e, em 1993, se juntaram para fazer, por diversão, arranjos com violoncelos. Regravaram músicas de diversos artistas, como: Metallica , Pantera Rammstein, Sepultura, Slayer, David Bowie (Música Heroes, gravada em alemão com o nome Helden) entre outros.
