APOCALYPTICA To Enter Studio In The Winter

05.08.2009

Finland's HardcoreSounds.Net conducted an interview with APOCALYPTICA mainman Eicca Toppinen prior to the band's performance at the Rockperry Festival, which was held July 17-18, 2009 in Vaasa, Finland. Watch the chat below.

APOCALYPTICA is scheduled to enter the studio in the winter to begin recording its new album for a spring 2010 release.

APOCALYPTICA scored its first No. 1 rock radio hit in November with "I Don't Care", the latest single from the band's sixth studio album, "Worlds Collide". The disc has sold around a quarter million copies in the U.S. and marks the group's first significant success in this country in APOCALYPTICA's 15-year career. APOCALYPTICA's Paavo Lotjonen told The Pulse of Radio that their newfound recognition has been worth all the effort. "It's been really amazing, all the success we have got," he said. "Of course it has taken a lot of work and we have given our heart to this. But I feel that it's been worth that and we have reached something new."

"I Don't Care" features guest vocals from THREE DAYS GRACE frontman Adam Gontier.

SLIPKNOT's Corey Taylor contributed vocals to the CD's first single, "I'm Not Jesus".

  6. So happy to here from this band, finally. And so happy to hear about new album - ok, touring is important, but it was a long time since the last album..

    Jo,

    that is a thought - Serj Tankian collaboration would be interesting, sure.
