APOCALYPTICA recruited
FUEL frontman
Toryn Green to handle lead vocals on the quartet's North American tour, which began on April 11 and concluded on May 19. The group initially enlisted
Johnny Andrews, who co-wrote the band's current single,
"I'm Not Jesus", to sing on the trek, but
Andrews was replaced after just a handful of shows. In addition to
"I'm Not Jesus",
Andrews also co-wrote another track called
"S.O.S. (Anything But Love)". Both tunes are from
APOCALYPTICA's new album,
"Worlds Collide", which arrived in stores in the U.S. on April 15.
Other guests on
"Worlds Collide" include
SLIPKNOT/
STONE SOUR frontman
Corey Taylor,
