APOCALYPTICA Hires FUEL Singer For Roadwork

April 21, 2008

According to The Pulse of Radio, APOCALYPTICA has enlisted FUEL frontman Toryn Green to handle lead vocals on the remainder of the Finnish cello quartet's current North American tour, which began on April 11 and continues through mid-May. The group initially enlisted vocalist Johnny Andrews (see clip below),who co-wrote the band's current single, "I'm Not Jesus", to sing on the trek, but Andrews has been replaced after just a handful of shows. In addition to "I'm Not Jesus", Andrews also co-wrote another track called "S.O.S. (Anything But Love)". Both tunes are from APOCALYPTICA's new album, "Worlds Collide", which arrived in stores in the U.S. last Tuesday (April 15).

The studio version of "I'm Not Jesus", which features STONE SOUR and SLIPKNOT vocalist Corey Taylor, is a Top 10 hit at rock radio.

Other guests on "Worlds Collide" include THREE DAYS GRACE frontman Adam Gontier, LACUNA COIL singer Cristina Scabbia, drummer Dave Lombardo from SLAYER and vocalist Till Lindemann of RAMMSTEIN.

APOCALYPTICA performs on Monday night (April 21) in Salt Lake City.
