Internationally acclaimed Finnish symphonic metallers APOCALYPTICA have released their new single and music video for ‘What We’re Up Against’, which features guest vocals from AMARANTHE’s Elize Ryd.

The collaboration between these Nordic titans not only results in a dynamic musical fusion, but also boasts a visually mesmerising music video featuring both APOCALYPTICA and Elize. Eicca Toppinen of APOCALYPTICA expresses his excitement about the collaboration, stating:

“We wanted to make a song with Elize since we toured together in the beginning of 2020. This song felt perfect for this collaboration, and Elize is giving an amazing performance! The song is about being true to your values and the importance of being aware of formulating opinions and taking action in today’s world.”
