Apocalyptica have recorded the theme song for the new Angry Birds game, On Finn Ice, which comes out November 28th. The game is actually set around the band’s home-country of Finland.
Said the band, on their official site:
“We even recorded a video for the song which features the birds and pigs from the game and us playing amid the aurora borealis!”
Apocalyptica has a new album on the way next year, which will be produced by Grammy winner Nick Raskulinecz who has worked with Foo Fighters, Deftones, and Mastodon. The album is due out in April of 2015, which lines up nicely with their US tour with Sixx: A.M.
