Apocalyptica have joined forces with Franky Perez (ex-Scars On Broadway) and Geezer Butler (Black Sabbath) for a new song titled “I’ll Get Through It.” You can check out that track below:
Butler commented:
“Franky and I were visiting my friend, Diane Warren, at her studio. She played us this song, saying that she thought it would work well with Franky’s voice. He gave it a try on the spot. We loved it. Franky then suggested sending it to Apocalyptica. They loved it, and the rest is history.”
Perez continued
“I knew this song was special from the moment Diane Warren played it for Geezer and me. So much so, that I framed the lyrics from the session the very next day. They have been hanging on my wall ever since. This song speaks to me lyrically which made for an honest performance. Musically, there is no better collaboration than Geezer and Apocalyptica to do the song the justice it deserves. I feel very fortunate to be a part of it.”
Apocalyptica’s Perttu Kivilaakso added:
“We are more than thrilled working with our great and talented friend Franky Perez again! It’s been a while since our previous collaborations in ‘Shadowmaker’ album and tour, and we are also highly awaiting for getting back on road with him this April all across the States!
‘I’ll Get Through It’ is a meaningful and beautiful song by an incredible songwriter Diane Warren, with whom we’ve also had the pleasure of working with before. We can’t wait for you to hear the final result… falling in love again with Franky’s sensual performance, Geezer’s earthshakingly powerful bass, and our wistfully haunting cellos, among the inevitable presence of all the rhythms and groove!
We hope you’ll enjoy the track as much as we do! Gonna be a blast performing it also live!”
