This Friday, the 18th, Apocalyptica released their new single, “I'll Get Through It”, featuring Geezer Butler from Black Sabbath and Franky Perez , who was invited to sing on the album Shadowmaker in 2015.
The lyrics for the new song were written by singer-songwriter Diane Warren and came about during a visit Geezer and Franky made to her. “Franky and I were visiting my friend, Diane Warren, at her studio. She played this song for us and said she thought it would work well with Franky’s voice. He tried it right then and there and we loved it. Franky suggested we send it to Apocalyptica and they loved it. The rest is history,” says Geezer Butler ( Blabbermouth ).
Franky Perez, for his part, was so moved by the lyrics of "I'll Get Through It" that he framed them and hung them on his wall. According to him, the honest performance that can be heard on the recording came from that connection. "Musically, there's no better collaboration than Geezer and Apocalyptica to do justice to the song. I feel very lucky to be a part of it," he commented.
