Apocalyptica at The Fillmore

Apocalyptica

It's been over 20 years since Apocalyptica first put forth their unholy alliance of metal and classical music in the form of debut album Plays Metallica by Four Cellos. The Finnish cello metal band formed with the intention of playing Metallica and other heavy metal band covers, but each subsequent release featured more and more original music until fourth album Reflections announced their fully-fledged status as original artists.

Steel Panther at The Fillmore

Steel Panther

Steel Panther have taken their parody of '80s glam metal to a whole new level. Through their undying commitment to sleazy lyrics, skin-tight leather, and genuine musical chops, the L.A. band have now reached the same level of fame as a lot of the groups they're aping. They've headlined Wembley and have toured with the likes of Judas Priest and Guns N' Roses.
