Apocalyptica has just released a new single/video, the song “Rise Again”, which is a new version of their instrumental song, “Rise”, off their latest album “Cell-O”. “Rise Again” features Epica’s Simone Simons on vocals. The video is directed by Lisa Mann. Apocalyptica’s Eicca Toppinen comments: “It was so great to make ‘Rise Again’ with Simone Simons! When we were putting the ‘Epic Apocalypse’ tour together, we were thinking of making this collaboration with EPICA even deeper by releasing a song together. ‘Rise’ from our ‘Cell-0’ album had the beauty and feel which we felt could fit perfectly for Simone’s unique voice. We are so happy about the song and really excited about this tour with EPICA as it will be something really special and amazing!”
Apocalyptica and Epica’s “Epic Apocalypse” tour will kick off on January 23 in Oslo and will conclude on March 29 in Leipzig, Germany. Support on the trek will come from Wheel.
