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.”

‘What We’re Up Against’ is a powerful anthem that transcends musical boundaries, blending Apocalyptica’s signature cello-driven metal with Elize Ryd’s electrifying vocals.

The accompanying music video promises a visually stunning experience, bringing the synergy of these two Nordic musical forces to life. As Apocalyptica and Elize Ryd continue to push the boundaries of their craft, ‘What We’re Up Against’ stands as a testament to the strength of their collaboration and a rallying cry for staying true to one’s convictions in the face of a complex world. The single is now available on all streaming platforms.
