Who knew the cello could rock so hard! New to the Oxford Public Library's music collection is Amplified, by Apocalyptica. Not your typical string quartet, this band is perhaps best known for their instrumental covers of Metallica's greatest hits. But they also play more classically-inspired pieces as well--with a hard rock edge, of course. Check out their head-banging version of Hall of the Mountain King! You may forget you're listening to instruments typically reserved for orchestra music. A bonus disc features vocal stylings from some of today's hottest metal bands. You can find Amplified in the Hard Rock drawer of the library's newly-reorganized music collection. Check it out today! --AJL
