Finnish metal band APOCALYPTICA has been very busy lately, not only did they release their latest album “Cell-0” in January, but they also went on tour with SABATON, released a brand new single featuring Joakim Brodén, and are currently preparing for the upcoming “Cell-0” tour, while a pandemic is a driving force behind many tour cancelations all around the globe.
Amidst the outbreak of the coronavirus in Finland, we had the opportunity to chat with Eicca Toppinen about the possibility of cancellations due to the coronavirus, what people can expect from the “Cell-0” shows in the future, the Epic Apocalypse tour, and all things “Cell-0.”
APOCALYPTICA, unfortunately, was forced to postpone their tour in Finland, but Toppinen gives plenty of reasons why you should hold on to your ticket for the re-scheduled shows! Watch the entire interview here:
