APOCALYPTICA
RELEASE FIRST OF THREE NEW CLASSICAL INSTRUMENTAL TRACKS
“BOLERO”
After the release of their feature track “I’ll Get Through It” with Franky Perez and Geezer Butler (Black Sabbath), the Finnish four piece now announces the first of three classical instrumental tracks to be released throughout this summer. “Bolero” is Apocalyptica’s own version of Maurice Ravel’s classic ballet piece and it therefore marks the band’s first reinterpretation of a classical song since “Hall Of The Mountain King” in 2000. Listen to Bolero and watch the music video here.
Apocalyptica will be touring the US extensively in 2022, as well as playing multiple Summer festivals, among other dates, before hitting Europe with the aptly named “Epic Apocalypse Tour” alongside Epica and Wheel. All dates can be found below.
